Dempsey and Makepeace (TV Series)

The Squeeze (1985)

Glynis Barber: Makepeace

Quotes 

• Spikings : [walking towards his office, followed by Makepeace]  I know what you are going to say and the answer is no. You were going to ask in your impeccable Bedale's English whether I would reconsider pairing you with that Yankee Doodle Dandy.

  Makepeace : Look, sir, I can't work with that man...

  Spikings : Harry, I don't want Dempsey in my firm. My Gov'nor don't want him either, But the Home Office have different ideas.

  [quietly] 

  Spikings : And between you and me, who else would I pair him with? That bunch of animals out there? He wouldn't stand much of a chance with them, would he?

• Spikings : [on phone in office]  By the way, how is the great American disaster?

  Makepeace : [on other line]  A long way up my nose.
