The Final Cut (TV Mini Series)

Episode #1.2 (1995)

Paul Freeman: Tom Makepeace

Quotes 

• Dicky Withers : Tom, it's no secret that your major areas of disagreement have been with the Prime Minister himself. You're on record as saying That some of his speeches have been irresponsible and embarrassing to our European neighbours. Would you say it's time for Francis Urquhart to step down now? Hand over the reins to a younger man?

  Tom Makepeace : That's really not for me to say.

  Dicky Withers : Come on, Tom. Should he go?

  Tom Makepeace : Well, in his own words, you might very well think that, I could not possibly comment.

  Francis Urquhart : [Watching Makepeace on TV]  You bastard!
