Cracker/Awesome

For a show supposedly taking a gritty realistic approach to crime solving, there sure is a lot of Awesome in Cracker. "Suspect: (screaming in sheer terror): There's train coming Fitz: Sorry, can't hear you, there's a train coming."
 * He may be an overweight alcoholic womanising gambling addict, but Fitz got in an early CMOA in the first episode when he interrogated a suspect in front of a moving train

"Bilborough: Ince is black! Dublin is black! Parker is black! Schmeical's a Dane. Concelskis is a bloody Ukranian and Cantona's french. You stupid soft sod."
 * DCI Bilborough; when he leads a raid on a far right skin-head club (full of nazi saluting chanting skin-heads), he discovers a picture of the then Manchester United Squad and shows it to the lead skin-head


 * But this is nothing compared to later in the episode when he is fatally stabbed, and yet still manages to call in for help and give a precise and detailed description of the killer.
 * Even DS Beck, the homophobic rapist, gets one at the end of 'Brotherly Love' where he gets a confession from the killer...by handcuffing himself to the killer and leaping off a ten storey block of flats with him.
