I asked the same question a few years ago (though for a rather different
purpose). There are about 100 short DP dialogues in the BNC. Otherwise
genuine DP dialogues are extremely difficult to get hold of: even where
they have been collected (eg Jenny Thomas and Andrew Wilson collected 2m
words of data, as reported in their chapter in Thomas & Short (eds)
Using Corpora for Language Research) confidentiality and other ethical
issues prevent their reuse.
