Dalziel and Pascoe

Pascoe: Could be a warning? A new restaurant on someone else's patch. Dalziel: I know the place was posh but I draw the line at Chef wars.

Doctor Griffin: 'It's not the cough that carries you off, but the coffin they carry you off in.'

Imad Abdullah: (On Steve and Claire's pregnancy as well as Hugh and Alice's recent birth) I suppose you'll be renaming Carousel, Carrycots soon. Claire: Jealousy doesn't suit you. Imad: No! There's only one reason for a sleepless night in my book. (winks) Claire: Thanks, Mr Studmuffin.

Female PC: And as yo-yo knickers. Dalziel: Oi, oi, oi, that was at a party. And I was somewhat tired and emotional. Lecturer: Yes, Mr Dalziel? Dalziel: Well, I suppose I do sometimes call one of my colleagues, darling. Lecturer: And how do you think they feel about that? Dalziel: Well I don't think he minds, do you Peter? (Pascoe rolls his eyes.)

Dalziel: Who are you? Griffin: Claudine Griffin, your new slicer and dicer. Pascoe: What happened to Mason? Griffin: Oh he's gone back to Ireland. Joined the Priesthood. I just hope I can fill his shoes. Dalziel: I promise you love, it won't be too difficult.
