Francis Urquhart: Got anything on him?

Tim Stamper: There was a whiff of scandal about ten years ago.

Francis Urquhart: Rent boy. In a train. To Red Hill. Yes. Wanted to sell his story but we bought it and hushed him up. Be ungentlemanly to bring that up. A man's private life should be private.

Tim Stamper: On the other hand, getting sucked off in second class is hardly prime ministerial behaviour.

Francis Urquhart: Yes, you have a point there.
