Roy Dotrice: Frederick

Quotes 

• Frederick : I don't suppose you'd consider coming out of retirement?

  Alfred Pennyworth : And taking up civil service pay grades again? Hardly, old man. I've become accustomed to my style of living.

  Frederick : It's a great pity. It was just like old times.

  Alfred Pennyworth : Give my best to Whitehall.

• Frederick : It's good to see you again, old man. I'm sorry it has to be under such circumstances.

  Alfred Pennyworth : Exactly what circumstances are we talking about?

  [his blindfold is removed] 

  Alfred Pennyworth : My heavens! Red Claw!

  Red Claw : So pleased to make your acquaintance, Mr. Pennyworth. If you do exactly as I say, you might live to see tomorrow.

• Red Claw : The code, old man, now!

  Frederick : [struggling to resist]  14... 14... Gurrier's Crescent... Blairquhan, upper.

  Red Claw : Absurdly simple, like most passwords. Now, as for you.

  Alfred Pennyworth : [sing-songy]  Half a league, half a league, half a league onward.

  Red Claw : Desperate valor to the last. Not that it will help you. Sooner or later, the serum always wins.

• Red Claw : I've wasted enough courtesy on you two.

  Frederick : Courtesy? None that I've seen.

  Red Claw : [slapping him]  I want this missile silo operational. I intend for the British government to give me £5 billion to keep me from wiping London off the map.

  Frederick : You understand, old man, I had no choice in the matter.

  Alfred Pennyworth : But of course, dear boy.
