"I don't swear very much." "It doesn't matter, join in the game." "I suppose it depends on the individual." "Come on, which swear word did everyone in this office collectively find the most offensive?" "I haven't a clue." "Just take a bloody guess!" "Look, there's one already." "I'm really no good at this sort of thing." "It's just a bit of fun, guess!" "Come on!" "Tit wank." "Tit wank?" "Tit wank?" "when have you ever heard anyone in this office say "tit wank"?"

"(AMERICAN ACCENT) Thank you for coming, Annie, take a seat." "(AMERICAN ACCENT) So, what's the problem this time?" "Annie, I think you know." "Your methods of late have become somewhat unorthodox." "I get results, Robert, and I save lives." "You overruled the decisions of two senior doctors." "I saved the lives of three people who would otherwise have died had I been too polite to intervene." "You're making enemies around here, Annie." "I'd be careful if I were you." "Funny, I thought I was making a difference." "For what it's worth," "I think you're one of the most talented doctors to come to this hospital in a long time," "but my advice, don't be a maverick."

"Of course, I know what all this is really about." "It's because I'm a woman." "Don't be ridiculous." "Oh, come on, Robert." "Ifjack Morgan had done this, or any otherjunior doctor for that matter, they'd have been applauded." "This isn't about hospital policy or protocol, this is plain old-fashioned double standards." "For God's sakes, get a hold of yourself." "It's no such thing." "Open your eyes, Robert, it happens all the time." "You're not seriously going to file a complaint on the grounds of sexism?" "DIRECTOR:" "Okay, let's hold it there." "George, George, we're losing your eyeline." "Okay, let's pick it up." "Action." "For God's sakes, get a hold of yourself, it's no such thing."
