Blue Heelers

John Wood's (Tom Croydon) favorite line from all 500 episodes of the series is "You shot Doherty's dog?", shouted by him to Constables Maggie Doyle and Wayne Patterson in the pilot episode.

Throughout the series, Mount Thomas is shown to have at least three major supermarkets (and several smaller), multiple banks, service stations, hardware stores and at least ten pubs, but whenever someone calls the station to report a crime the answering officer will always tell Tom or a colleague (with extremely rare exceptions) that an incident has occurred/is in progress "down at the pub/at the supermarket/the bank/the servo", etc., without ever specifying exactly which one, but the other officer magically automatically knows before responding.

When shown in the U.K., many of the ITV regions do, or have at some stage, edited the episodes, originally hour-long, into two-part stories, half hour each half.
