Quotes 

• [Chief Constable Lilley is the Master of the Lodge which has just admitted John Bacchus to the Freemasons. He is also the father of John's wife, Lisa. He greets John with a false smile that makes it look as if he is congratulating him] 

  Chief Constable Lilley : If I have one more tearful lunch with my daughter on account of you, then I shall remove your balls and post them to you. Understood? Say "Yes" and smile.

  John Bacchus : [nervously]  Yes. Thank you. Understood.

  Chief Constable Lilley : [prompting him]  Edgar.

  John Bacchus : Edgar.

  Chief Constable Lilley : And if I ever hear you call me "Edgar" outside of this Lodge, then I shall mince them before I post them to you. Say "Thank you".

  John Bacchus : Thank you, Edgar.
