Honor Blackman: Catherine Gale

Quotes 

• Catherine Gale : It's rather unusual to send an operator out on a job that involves him personally, isn't it?

  John Steed : You've been reading the Official Handbook again, haven't you?

  Catherine Gale : [unperturbed]  But it is, isn't it?

• Catherine Gale : [about Hal Anderson]  What kind of a man is he?

  John Steed : He's reliable. Heh. By the books he shouldn't be; he's a lousy shot, he can't swim... writes poetry. But, he's reliable.

• Catherine Gale : All the evidence you have against Steed is second hand.

  Oliver : Yes, it's an ugly trade. It's rules aren't those of justice, but expediency.

  Catherine Gale : Everybody's guilty until proved innocent.

  Oliver : Precisely.
