Detective Chief Inspector Gene Hunt from the BBC's Life on Mars show. He's an old style cop - kicking down doors, planting evidence and even getting a guy sectioned because he knew he'd be a major villian in the future!
Gene: They reckon you've got concussion - but personally, I couldn't give a tart's furry cup if half your brains are falling out. Don't ever waltz into my kingdom playing king of the jungle.
Sam Tyler: Who the hell are you?
Gene: I'm Gene Hunt. Your DCI. And it's 1973. Nearly dinner time. I'm 'aving hoops
Sam Tyler: [Gene is looking at a poster for The Good, The Bad And The Ugly] Which one are you?
DCI Gene Hunt: All three.
Gene Hunt: Drop your weapons! You are surrounded by armed bastards!
Gene Hunt: You think you know everything, don't you?
Sam Tyler: I know the stench of rotten apples.
Gene Hunt: Yeah? And I know your slag is lying through her teeth and do you wanna know why?
Sam Tyler: Yeah, why?
Gene Hunt: Because Stephen Warren is a bum bandit. D'you understand? A poof. A fairy. A queer. A queen. Fudge packer. Uphill gardener. Fruit picking sodomite.
Sam Tyler: He's gay?
Gene Hunt: As a bloody Christmas tree! Mind you, he is a little touchy on the subject, being a twisted Catholic with an elderly mother and all, so I wouldn't go mentioning it to him... You challenged his authority so he stitched you up like a kipper. Pretty girl appealed to your vanity as the only decent sheriff in Dodge City. Slipped you a Mickey, tied you up and bounced on your ding-a-ling.
Sam Tyler: Why?
Gene Hunt: I suspect the answer will lie in the post. Photos, you idiot.
Ray Carling: I think it was a heart attack.
Gene: Then it must've exploded out of his ****, there's blood all down his back.
Gene: Juries love all that. Makes 'em feel like Columbo.
Gene Hunt: You so much as belch out of line and I'll have your scrotum on a barbed wire plate.
Gene Hunt: I think you've forgotten who you're talking to.
Sam Tyler: An overweight, over-the-hill, nicotine-stained, borderline-alcoholic homophobe with a superiority complex and an unhealthy obsession with male bonding.
Gene Hunt: You make that sound like a *bad* thing
Gene Hunt: Always trust the Gene Genie!
I highly recommend the Life on Mars Series on DVD to all non-UK viewers. It is one of the best Police dramas to ever be made and I am ex-Police and so I don't normally pay much attention to TV interpretations of the job.
