    • 1990, House of Cards, Season 1, Episode 4:
      Francis Urquhart: Got anything on him?
      Tim Stamper: There was a whiff of scandal about ten years ago.
      Francis Urquhart: Rent boy. In a train. To Red Hill. Yes. Wanted to sell his story but we bought it and hushed him up. Be ungentlemanly to bring that up. A man's private life should be private.
      Tim Stamper: On the other hand, getting sucked off in second class is hardly prime ministerial behaviour.
      Francis Urquhart: Yes, you have a point there.
