Shark in the Park - Lamb to the Slaughter (Series One, Episode Three)
Television (Full Length Episode) – 1989
Shark in the Park is not looking to revolutionise the formula — the ambition of the series seems to be to do it well, to do it within their means and to make it more locally relevant.– Writer Ken Duncum on Shark in the Park in Illusions 11, July 1989, page 7
The woman in the cells — she said something about leaving her kids in the car. She keeps collapsing. She's taken a mixture of pills and alcohol!– Margaret Wallace (Joanna Briant)
Oh Wally, you're an idealist. A few of us are but we don't let on.– Jack (Rima Te Wiata)
They grow on you, like fungus.– Jacko (Rima Te Wiata) describes her male co-workers, early in the episode
I want to be a policewoman!– Janice (Robyn Malcom), early in the episode
