Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes
The Eleventh Hour
(For only the second time ever, the Tardis doors open outwards - they are facing the sky - and a grappling hook is thrown out. A soaking wet Doctor clambers out.)
The Doctor: Could I have an apple? All I can think about. Apples. I love apples. Maybe I'm having a craving? That's new. Never had cravings before. (He sits on the edge of the Tardis and looks inside.) Whoa. Look at that.
Amelia: Are you okay?
The Doctor: Just had a fall. All the way down there, right to the library. Hell of a climb back up.
Amelia: You're soaking wet.
The Doctor: I was in the swimming pool.
Amelia: You said you were in the library.
The Doctor: So was the swimming pool.
Amelia: Are you a policeman?
The Doctor: Why? Did you call a policeman?
Amelia: Did you come about the crack in my wall?
The Doctor: What crack? Argh!
(He falls to the ground.)
Amelia: Are you all right, mister?
The Doctor: No, I'm fine. It's okay. This is all perfectly norm
(A breath of golden energy comes from his mouth.)
Amelia: Who are you?
The Doctor: I don't know yet. I'm still cooking. Does it scare you?
Amelia: No, it just looks a bit weird.
The Doctor: No, no, no. The crack in your wall. Does it scare you?
Amelia: Yes.
The Doctor: Well then, no time to lose. I'm the Doctor. Do everything I tell you, don't ask stupid questions, and don't wander off.
(The Doctor walks straight into a tree.)
Amelia: Are you all right?
The Doctor: Early days. Steering's a bit off.

**********************************

The Doctor: You know when grown-ups tell you everything's going to be fine and you think they're probably lying to make you feel better?
Amelia: Yes.
The Doctor: Everything's going to be fine.

***********************************

The Doctor: I've got to get back in there. The engines are phasing. It's going to burn!
Amelia: But it's just a box. How can a box have engines?
The Doctor: It's not a box. It's a time machine.
Amelia: What, a real one? You've got a real time machine?
The Doctor: Not for much longer if I can't get her stabilised. Five minute hop into the future should do it.
Amelia: Can I come?
The Doctor: Not safe in here. Not yet. Five minutes. Give me five minutes, I'll be right back.
Amelia: People always say that.
The Doctor: Am I people? Do I even look like people? Trust me. I'm the Doctor.

*******************************

The Doctor: You're Amelia.
Amy: And you're late.
The Doctor: Amelia Pond. You're the little girl.
Amy: I'm Amelia and you're late.
The Doctor: What happened?
Amy: Twelve years.
The Doctor: You hit me with a cricket bat.
Amy: Twelve years.
The Doctor: A cricket bat.
Amy: Twelve years and four psychiatrists.
The Doctor: Four?
Amy: I kept biting them.
The Doctor: Why?
Amy: They said you weren't real.

********************************

Atraxi: Is this world important?
The Doctor: Important? What's that mean, important? Six billion people live here. Is that important? Here's a better question. Is this world a threat to the Atraxi? Well, come on. You're monitoring the whole planet. Is this world a threat?
(There is a projection of the world between them.)
Atraxi: No.
The Doctor: Are the peoples of this world guilty of any crime by the laws of the Atraxi?
Atraxi: No.
The Doctor: Okay. One more. Just one. Is this world protected? Because you're not the first lot to come here. Oh, there have been so many. (The projection shows the Daleks et al.) And what you've got to ask is, what happened to them? (A run through of all the previous Doctors, then this Doctor steps through the projection with a jacket and bow tie.) Hello. I'm the Doctor. Basically, run.
(The eyeball zooms back to its ship and leaves, very fast. There is a brief materialisation sound, then the Doctor takes a glowing Tardis key out of his new jacket pocket.)
Amy: Is that it? Is that them gone for good? Who were they?

Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes
The Beast Below
Tannoy: Welcome to London Market. You are being monitored.
Amy: I'm in the future. Like hundreds of years in the future. I've been dead for centuries.
The Doctor: Oh, lovely. You're a cheery one. Never mind dead, look at this place. Isn't it wrong?
Amy: What's wrong?
The Doctor: Come on, use your eyes. Notice everything. What's wrong with this picture?
Amy: Is it the bicycles? Bit unusual on a spaceship, bicycles.
The Doctor: Says the girl in the nightie.
Amy: Oh my God, I'm in my nightie.
The Doctor: Now, come on, look around you. Actually look.
Tannoy: London Market is a crime-free zone.
The Doctor: Life on a giant starship. Back to basics. Bicycles, washing lines, wind-up street lamps. But look closer. Secrets and shadows, lives led in fear. Society bent out of shape, on the brink of collapse. A police state.

********************************

Mandy: How do you not know about this? Are you Scottish too?
The Doctor: Oh, I'm way worse than Scottish. I can't even see the movie. Won't play for me.
Amy: It played for me.
The Doctor: The difference being the computer doesn't accept me as human.
Amy: Why not? You look human.
The Doctor: No, you look Time Lord. We came first.
Amy: So there are other Time Lords, yeah?
The Doctor: No. There were, but there aren't. Just me now. Long story. There was a bad day. Bad stuff happened. And you know what? I'd love to forget it all, every last bit of it, but I don't. Not ever. Because this is what I do, every time, every day, every second. This. Hold tight. We're bringing down the government.

*****************************

Liz: You must be Amy. Liz. Liz Ten.
Amy: Hi.
Liz: Yuck. Lovely hair, Amy. Shame about the sick. You know Mandy, yeah? She's very brave.
The Doctor: How did you find us?
Liz: Stuck my gizmo on you. Been listening in. Nice moves on the hurl escape. So, what's the big fella doing here?
The Doctor: You're over sixteen, you've voted. Whatever this is, you've chosen to forget about it.
Liz: No. Never forgot, never voted, not technically a British subject.
The Doctor: Then who and what are you, and how do you know me?
Liz: You're a bit hard to miss, love. Mysterious stranger, M O consistent with higher alien intelligence, hair of an idiot. I've been brought up on the stories. My whole family was.
The Doctor: Your family?
Liz: They're repairing. Doesn't take them long. Let's move. The Doctor. Old drinking buddy of Henry Twelve. Tea and scones with Liz Two. Vicky was a bit on the fence about you, weren't she? Knighted and exiled you on the same day. And so much for the Virgin Queen, you bad, bad boy.
The Doctor: Liz Ten.
Liz: Liz Ten, yeah. Elizabeth the Tenth. And down! (She turns, they duck, and she shoots the repaired Smilers again.) I'm the bloody Queen, mate. Basically, I rule.

Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes
Victory Of The Daleks
The Doctor: They're Daleks. They're called Daleks.
Churchill: They are Bracewell's Ironsides, Doctor. Look. Blueprints, statistics, field tests, photographs. He invented them.
The Doctor: Invented them? Oh, no, no, no.
Churchill: Yes. He approached one of our brass hats a few months ago. Fellow's a genius.
Amy: A Scottish genius, too. Maybe you should listen to
The Doctor: Shush. He didn't invent them. They're alien.
Churchill: Alien.
(One glides past the open door, looking in.)
The Doctor: And totally hostile.
Churchill: Precisely. They will win me the war.

***********************************

Bracewell: Thank you. The perfect servant, and the perfect warrior.
The Doctor: I don't know what you're up to, Professor, but whatever they've promised, you cannot trust them. Call them what you like, the Daleks are death.
Churchill: Yes, Doctor. Death to our enemies. Death to the forces of darkness, and death to the Third Reich.
The Doctor: Yes, Winston, and death to everyone else too.
Dalek: Would you care for some tea?
(The Doctor knocks the tray from the Dalek's sucker.)
The Doctor: Stop this! What are you doing here? What do you want?
Dalek: We seek only to help you.
The Doctor: To do what?
Dalek: To win the war.
The Doctor: Really? Which war?
Dalek: I do not understand.
The Doctor: This war, against the Nazis, or your war? The war against the rest of the Universe? The war against all life forms that are not Dalek?
Dalek: I do not understand. I am your soldier.
The Doctor: Oh, yeah? Okay. Okay, soldier, defend yourself.
(The Doctor picks up a huge spanner and starts hitting the Dalek.)
Churchill: Doctor, what the devil?
Dalek: You do not require tea?
Bracewell: Stop him! Prime Minister, please.
Churchill: Doctor, what the devil? Please, these machines are precious.
The Doctor: Come on. Fight back. You want to, don't you? You know you do.
Bracewell: I must protest.
The Doctor: What are you waiting for? Look, you hate me. You want to kill me. Well, go on. Kill me. Kill me!
Amy: Doctor, be careful.
Dalek: Please desist from striking me. I am your soldier.
The Doctor: You are my enemy! And I am yours. You are everything I despise. The worst thing in all creation. I've defeated you time and time again. I've defeated you. I sent you back into the Void. I saved the whole of reality from you. I am the Doctor. And you are the Daleks.

*******************************

The Doctor: Turn those lights off now. Turn London off or I swear I will use the Tardis self destruct.
Dalek: Stalemate, Doctor. Leave us and return to Earth.
The Doctor: Oh, that's it. That's your great victory? You leave?
Dalek: Extinction is not an option. We shall return to our own time and begin again.
The Doctor: No, no, no. I won't let you get away this time. I won't.
Dalek: We have succeeded. DNA reconstruction is complete. Observe, Doctor, a new Dalek paradigm. (Five restyled Daleks glide out from the Progenitor cabinet, each a different colour) The Progenitor has fulfilled our new destiny. Behold, the restoration of the Daleks. The resurrection of the master race.

*******************************

Dalek: All hail the new Daleks. All hail the new Daleks.
White Dalek: Yes, you are inferior.
Dalek: Yes.
White Dalek: Then prepare.
Daleks: We are ready.
White Dalek: Cleanse the unclean. Total obliteration. Disintegrate.
(The new neon coloured Daleks exterminate the old khaki and gold ones.)
The Doctor: Blimey. What do you do to the ones who mess up?
White Dalek: You are the Doctor. You must be exterminated.

************************************

White Dalek: You will never defeat us, Doctor. We will return.
Daleks: We will return.
(The Dalek spaceship makes the time jump.)

************************************

Churchill: Stay with us, and help us win through. The world needs you.
The Doctor: The world doesn't need me.
Churchill: No?
The Doctor: The world's got Winston Spencer Churchill.
Churchill: It's been a pleasure, Doctor, as always.
The Doctor: Too right.
Churchill: Goodbye, Doctor.
The Doctor: Oh, shall we say adieu?
(The Doctor and Churchill embrace.)
Churchill: Indeed. Goodbye, Miss Pond.
Amy: It's, it's been amazing, meeting you.
Churchill: I'm sure it has.
(Amy kisses Churchill, and he walks away.)
Amy: Oi, Churchill. Tardis key. The one you just took from the Doctor.
Churchill: Oh, she's good, Doctor. As sharp as a pin. Almost as sharp as me.
(Churchill returns the key to Amy.)

Downtime. I like it. Oh it's flawed, mainly because of the uber-low budget (the Yeti look really crap) but it's a decent story and has a nice lead performance from Nicholas Courtney. It's nice to see Lis Sladen and Deborah Watling (God, all the classic leads in this are dead) and I still vastly, vastly prefer Beverly Cressman's Kate to the block of wood we got in New Who...

Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes
The Time Of Angels
River: Follow that ship. (So they do.) They've gone into warp drive. We're losing them. Stay close.
The Doctor: I'm trying.
River: Use the stabilisers.
The Doctor: There aren't any stabilisers.
River: The blue switches.
The Doctor: Oh, the blue ones don't do anything, they're just blue.
River: Yes, they're blue. Look, they're the blue stabilisers. (She presses them and the Tardis stops shaking.) See?
The Doctor: Yeah. Well, it's just boring now, isn't it? They're boring-ers. They're blue boring-ers.
Amy: Doctor, how come she can fly the Tardis?
The Doctor: You call that flying the Tardis? Ha!
River: Okay. I've mapped the probability vectors, done a fold-back on the temporal isometry, charted the ship to its destination, and parked us right along side.
The Doctor: Parked us? We haven't landed.
River: Of course we've landed. I just landed her.
The Doctor: But, it didn't make the noise.
River: What noise?
The Doctor: You know, the (wheezing).
River: It's not supposed to make that noise. You leave the brakes on.
The Doctor: Yeah, well, it's a brilliant noise. I love that noise

*********************************

Amy: You're letting people call you sir. You never do that. So, whatever a Weeping Angel is, it's really bad, yeah?
The Doctor: Now that's interesting. You're still here. Which part of wait in the Tardis till I tell you it's safe was so confusing?
Amy: Ooo, you are all Mister Grumpy Face today.
The Doctor: A Weeping Angel, Amy, is the deadliest, most powerful, most malevolent life form evolution has ever produced, and right now one of them is trapped inside that wreckage and I'm supposed to climb in after it with a screwdriver and a torch, and assuming I survive the radiation long enough and assuming the whole ship doesn't explode in my face, do something incredibly clever which I haven't actually thought of yet. That's my day. That's what I'm up to. Any questions?
Amy: Is River Song your wife? Because she's someone from your future, and the way she talks to you, I've never seen anyone do that. She's kind of like, you know, heel, boy. She's Mrs Doctor from the future, isn't she? Is she going to be your wife one day?
The Doctor: Yes, you're right. I am definitely Mister Grumpy Face today.
(River calls from the drop module. She has changed into combat fatigues.)
River: Doctor! Doctor?
Amy: Oops. Her indoors.

*************************************

Amy: You've got to go. You know you have. You've got all that stuff with River and that's all got to happen. You know you can't die here.
The Doctor: Time can be re-written. It doesn't work like that. (The statues arrive.) Keep your eyes on it. Don't blink.
Amy: Run!
The Doctor: You see, I'm not going. I'm not leaving you here.
Amy: I don't need you to die for me, Doctor. Do I look that clingy?
The Doctor: You can move your hand.
Amy: It's stone.
The Doctor: It's not stone.
Amy: You've got to go. Those people up there will die without you. If you stay here with me, you'll have as good as killed them.
The Doctor: Amy Pond, you are magnificent, and I'm sorry.
Amy; It's okay. I understand. You've got to leave me.
The Doctor: Oh, no, I'm not leaving you, never. I'm sorry about this.
(He bites her hand.)
Amy: Ow!
The Doctor: See? Not stone. Now run.
Amy: You bit me.
The Doctor: Yeah, and you're alive.
Amy: Look, I've got a mark. Look at my hand.
The Doctor: Yes, and you're alive. Did I mention?
Amy: Blimey, your teeth. Have you got space teeth?
The Doctor: Yeah. Alive. All I'm saying.

********************************

Bob [OC]: Doctor? Can I speak to the Doctor, please?
The Doctor: Hello, Angels. What's your problem?
Bob [OC]: Your power will not last much longer, and the Angels will be with you shortly. Sorry, sir.
The Doctor: Why are you telling me this?
Bob [OC]: There's something the Angels are very keen you should know before the end.
The Doctor: Which is?
Bob [OC]: I died in fear.
The Doctor: I'm sorry?
Bob [OC]: You told me my fear would keep me alive, but I died afraid, in pain and alone. You made me trust you, and when it mattered, you let me down.
Amy: What are they doing?
River: They're trying to make him angry.
Bob [OC]: I'm sorry, sir. The Angels were very keen for you to know that.
The Doctor: Well then, the Angels have made their second mistake because I'm not going to let that pass. I'm sorry you're dead, Bob, but I swear to whatever is left of you, they will be sorrier.
Bob [OC]: But you're trapped, sir, and about to die.
The Doctor: Yeah. I'm trapped. And you know what? Speaking of traps, this trap has got a great big mistake in it. A great big, whopping mistake.
Bob [OC]: What mistake, sir?
The Doctor: Trust me.
Amy: Yeah.
The Doctor: Trust me?
River: Always.
The Doctor: You lot, trust me?
Marco: Sir, two more incoming.
Octavian: We have faith, sir.
The Doctor: Then give me your gun. I'm about to do something incredibly stupid and dangerous. When I do, jump!
Octavian: Jump where?
The Doctor: Just jump, high as you can. Come on, leap of faith, Bishop. On my signal.
Octavian: What signal?
The Doctor: You won't miss it.
Bob [OC]: Sorry, can I ask again? You mentioned a mistake we made.
(The Doctor points the gun at the hull of the Byzantium.)
The Doctor: Oh, big mistake. Huge. Didn't anyone every tell you there's one thing you never put in a trap? If you're smart, if you value your continued existence, if you have any plans about seeing tomorrow, there is one thing you never, ever put in a trap.
Bob [OC]: And what would that be, sir?
The Doctor: Me.

The Master appeared in the seventh BBC Past Adventure novel The Face of the Enemy written by David A. McIntee.

This was the first novel to not feature the Doctor. Instead it was lead by the Brigadier and the first Doctor's friends Ian and Barbara.

I really liked those BBC Dr Who novels. I wish I’d bought more of them at the time ( and kept them ). I wish they were still publishing them too.
