A Pinch of Snuff1994

[discussing an interview with a suspect]

Insp. Andy Dalziel:
So, Godfrey Blengdale's a member of the Cally Club. And him a clean-rectummed Alderman and Justice of the Peace with a class-act "county" wife. Well, well, well!

Det Sgt Edgar Wield:
According to Mr Arany's statement...

Insp. Andy Dalziel:
It took him long enough to deliver. You didn't bounce him off t'wall hard enough, did you?

Det Sgt Edgar Wield:
[pompously] We observed the correct procedures, Sir - at all times.

Insp. Andy Dalziel:
No wonder he messed you about. There's a moral there, Sergeant.

Det Sgt Edgar Wield:
Anyroad, according to Arany he left Mr Blengdale with Dr Haggard at about 11:15 on the night of the murder.

Insp. Andy Dalziel:
Then some stupid sod best have a word with Godfrey "Call Me God" Blengdale... hadn't he?

Det Sgt Edgar Wield:
Meaning me, Sir?

Insp. Andy Dalziel:
No, Sergeant, modestly I was alluding to myself.
