(The highwaymen discuss hangings.) Swiftnick: Is it quick?
Dick Turpin: Well, they don't keep you hanging about.
At the start of the episode Turpin talks about John Nevison (nicknamed Swift Nick!) whose famous London to York ride was often wrongly contributed to Turpin. The mistake was made by Harrison Ainsworth in his novel Rookwood (1834). Turpin explains to his young companion that he doesn't want Nevison's fame.
