Clive Russell: Ch. Insp. Fred Abberline

Quotes 

• Chief Inspector Fred Abberline : Edmund, this last year, that lunatic will ever bind me to you but you ask too much. He lives still, he breathes this air still. These streets demand your vigilance.

  Detective Inspector Edmund Reid : No. We did everything in our power, used every instrument allowed to us, some that were not. All that we can hope for now is that he is gone and stays gone. He will own my life no more.

• Detective Inspector Edmund Reid : We only have these pictures, we have no name.

  Chief Inspector Fred Abberline : [takes one of the pictures]  His name is Sir Arthur Donaldson.

  [the police scramble outside] 

  Chief Inspector Fred Abberline : Summer '86. Before your time here. He got his cock out at a church picnic in Victoria Park. Week or so later, he tore the blouse off a pregnant woman on the Stepney Omnibus. We charged him, but... man from such a family as like to do jug as Victoria herself. The address is all we ever had for him.

  Detective Inspector Edmund Reid : Thank you, Fred.

  Chief Inspector Fred Abberline : Go.

  [Reid hastens to join his men]
