I owe the phrase‘the mafia of the mediocre’to the BBC series Line of Duty，series 4 episode 4. Interestingly，the character who uses the phrase（Thandie Newton as Detective Chief Inspector Roz Huntley）is trying to defend herself against charges of corruption by hurling accusations back at her accusers. She turns out to be guilty. Transcript available here：https：//subsaga.com/bbc/drama/line-of-duty/series-4/episode-4.html，consulted 20 January 2020.
