I Think The Police Are A Major

There's A Difference Between What I Call A Dumb Ghost And A Smart Ghost. The Smart Ghost Is Hamlet's Father - You Know, He Says, "get Revenge, My Son!" That's Incredibly Rare. It's Much More The Grey Lady In The Same Place Everyday, Moving Across The Floor.

There's A Really Classic Cliche Every Time You Switch The Tv On - You See Cops Arguing. I Have Spent A Day A Week For Many Years In The Presence Of Police And I Have Never Seen Them Argue. It's A Military Hierarchy. They Do What They're Told. There's No Bickering.

The Biggest Qualification To Be A Good Police Officer Is To Have A High Degree Of Emotional Intelligence.

Police Do Get Obsessed With Solving Crimes. You Know, Particularly If There's Been A Murder, It Becomes Personal For The Police Officer Very Quickly, And It Gets To The Family. Even After They've Retired, They Carry On, Not Letting Go.

If You And I Took A Walk Down A Shopping Street In Jo'burg Or Cape Town Or London, We See Two Guys Looking In A Shop Window, We Think, "oh, They're Wondering What They're Going To Buy." A Cop Looks At Them And Thinks, "why Are They Standing There? Are They Doing A Drug Deal? Are They Going To Mug Someone? Are They Going To Rob The Shop?"
