Quotes
-
Tom Quinn : Colin, when the word yes will do, use it, right?
-
Tom Quinn : Ruth, what just happened?
Ruth Evershed : Danny just made 50 grand. Or he would've if we'd been really trading.
Tom Quinn : How do you know all about this stuff?
Ruth Evershed : I was in love with a big swinging dick. That's slang for trader.
Tom Quinn : How's Danny measuring up?
Ruth Evershed : Oh, he's a huge talent.
Tom Quinn : I was afraid of that.

Ruth Evershed : MI-5 is a government department. I only told Downing Street what you were doing. The government can't betray itself to itself, can it?
Tom Quinn : Don't be naive, Ruth. You know exactly what's going on here. GCHQ planted you on us.
Ruth Evershed : Tom, I so much wanted to join MI-5. To be a real spy. They said I could have the transfer if, very occasionally, I reported what you were doing. I mean, this is the first time I've done it.
Tom Quinn : Reported directly to Amanda Roke?
[Ruth nods]
Tom Quinn : Well, now you're a classic double agent. How does real spying feel?
Ruth Evershed : The horrible thing is, it's rather exciting.
