Quotes
-
[newly-released from Dartmoor prison and waiting for his train, Masterick gets chatting to two American soldiers]
American Soldier : I see you have a big prison here. We saw some of the boys working out in the moor yesterday. Tough-looking boys there were, too.
American Soldier : Any chance of getting inside and having a look around, sir?
Tom Masterick : Well, not unless you do a murder first, I'm afraid.
[the soldiers chuckle]
American Soldier : Have you seen inside, sir?
Tom Masterick : Yes. But then, you see, I *am* a murderer.
[the soldiers look horrified and turn away]
American Soldier : Come on, Joe. Let's go.
