Jane Wymark: Joyce Barnaby

Quotes 

• Joyce Barnaby : It seems the only honest people in Morton Fendle are Bunny and Elfrida.

  Cully Barnaby : Apart from their draw, that is.

  D.C.I. Barnaby : Yeah. What?

  Cully Barnaby : The marijuana. He grows it in the greenhouse. What they don't smoke themselves he puts in the Bunny cakes.

  [pause] 

  Cully Barnaby : I thought you knew and were turning a blind eye.

• D.C.I. Barnaby : I'm going to clean up that cesspit known as Morton Fendle. I'll have that Gray Patterson for starters, for bribing Cathy Bullard.

  Joyce Barnaby : She seems fine about it now.

  D.C.I. Barnaby : Well, okay then. Reg Buckley, hm, for skimming the milk fund to buy 3,000 pounds worth of hi-fi.

  Cully Barnaby : 3,000?

  D.C.I. Barnaby : 3,000. You know what ours cost?

  Joyce Barnaby : 432 pounds.

  D.C.I. Barnaby : 432 pounds from Comet. Now what can he hear that I can't, huh?

  Cully Barnaby : So you don't think Reg has been punished enough for losing his daughter? Depends on your view of daughters, I suppose.

  D.C.I. Barnaby : Well, at least let me have the Andersons. If self-importance is not a crime, it should be. Plus, they had their fingers in the till.

• [first lines] 

  Joyce Barnaby : I think every one of them is mad.
