Bill Paterson: CPS Director George Castle

Quotes 

• James Steel : It doesn't matter what Kirk did. Harry Morgan's actions can't go unpunished. I'll make the jury see that.

  George Castle : It could be tougher than you think. We're all potential vigilantes, deep down. If I had been through what Harry Morgan had been through, I might be tempted to have a go myself.

  James Steel : And beat a man unconscious?

  George Castle : We're all liberals until the front garden is invaded, James. The jury will be imagining what they would do in the same situation. We can't afford for Harry Morgan to become a cause célèbre, James. The last thing we want is a middle-class vigilante hero, so you go into that court and you expose him for the thug that he is.
