Quotes 

• Gary Sparrow : I'm a time-traveller. It tends to dominate.

• [last lines] 

  Yvonne : You know, from the way you talked about her in that story, I got the impression there was something about that Phoebe that turned you on. Next time we make love would you like me to pretend to be her?

  Gary : No.

  Yvonne : Oh, go on! You can be Reg.

• Gary : I've got to get back. Help catch him. Left to Reg Deadman, he won't be caught until he's deposed Churchill and married the Queen. Hey, what am I saying? It might be a woman.

  Ron : Na. Spying's a man's job. Learning to live on your wits in a hostile environment. Marriage trains us for it.

• [first lines] 

  Ron : You going like that?

  Gary : Yeah. It's Sunday lunchtime at the local. It's more lager top than Lagerfeld.

  Ron : The King's Head is the hottest vibe in Cricklewood come the Sabbath. It is packed tight with the hip posse who spend Saturday night on a dance trip.

  Gary : Are we talking about the same King's Head that boasts a Boffo the Clown play area and free lemonade for the under sevens?

  Ron : We should still legislate for the unexpected. We are two caballeros off the marital leash. We could easily be propositioned by a couple of nubile ladies...

  Gary : Yeah, Ron...

  Ron : And spend the afternoon being whisked around the Surrey countryside in an open-top cabriolet, ending up with a light champagne supper in some noted West End night spot.

  Gary : Ron.

  Ron : Ah, I am armed

  [pulls out a condom] 

  Ron : and we are dangerous.

  Gary : Ron, Yvonne's coming with us.
