Malcolm Storry: Peterson

Quotes 

• Jill Swinburne : [Mr. Peterson has broken into her house again, having intercepted her postage of a cassette tape]  I'm sending my Uncle Jack a tape because he likes George Formby.

  Peterson : [Expecting the cassette to actually contain a secret discussion about the dumping of nuclear waste]  Play it, please, Mr. Chaplin.

  Trevor Chaplin : [Referring to Jill's earlier assertion that she disposed of the secret cassette]  I'll tell you something for nothing: *this* tape hasn't been anywhere near a canal!

  Peterson : [Impatient]  Just play the tape, Mr. Chaplin!

  George Formby : [singing voiceover from the cassette]  I'm leaning on the lamp - maybe you think I look a tramp!

  Peterson : [Confused and grabbing the cassette tape]  We'll take this away and have it checked!

  Trevor Chaplin : [Sarcastically]  I think you'll find it's the *real* George Formby!

  Jill Swinburne : [to Mr. Peterson]  May I ask you a question?

  Peterson : You're welcome to try.

  Jill Swinburne : [Mr. Peterson hasn't actually introduced himself]  Do you have a name?

  Peterson : My name is Peterson.

  Jill Swinburne : I see. Thank you. That's all I wanted to know.

  Peterson : [about to leave]  I may well be back.

  Trevor Chaplin : [Feigning cheerful amicability]  If we're not here, just let yourself in!
