Fourth Doctor quotes from Doctor Who

You're a clumsy, ham fisted idiot!

Harry Sullivan

I said I was sorry!

What?! Come out. And don't touch anything!

Harry Sullivan

I was only trying to open the door!

You haven't touched anything, have you Harry?

Harry Sullivan

Me?!

Well, there are only two of us here, and your name is Harry!

Aren't you feeling better?

Harry Sullivan

[Holding his head] No I'm not!

Well pull yourself together, man, this is fascinating!

Vira

You claim to be Med-Techs?

Well, my Doctorate is purely honorary and Harry is only qualified to work on sailors.

Harry

Steady-- Steady on, Old Girl! Steady on...

Sarah Jane

Harry...

Harry

Yes, I'm here, I'm here.

Sarah Jane

Call me 'Old Girl' again... And I'll spit in your eye.

Welcome back, Sarah Jane!

(Muttering to himself)

Vira

What?

Sarah Jane

He sometimes talks to himself, mostly because he's the only person who knows what he's talking about.

Vira

Doctor, the fate of all humanity might be decided within the next few hours.

Vira, if you fail, your people will die in pain and fear. If I fail, they'll die anyway. But at least only the six of us will know anything about it.

Sarah Jane

[panicking] Oh, Doctor, I can't move!

Of course you can. You've got this far.

Sarah Jane

No, I'm stuck!

Don't panic, Sarah. Don't panic. Ease round and try again.

Sarah Jane

I'm jammed. I can't move forward or back. [halfs sobs]

Oh stop whining girl, you're useless!

Sarah Jane

Oh, Doctor...

[trying to make Sarah angry] "Oh, Doctor!" Is that all you can say for yourself? Stupid, foolish girl. We should never have relied on you, I knew you’d let us down. That's the trouble with girls like you. You think you're tough, but when you're really up against it, you’ve no guts at all. Hundreds of lives at stake, and you lie there blubbing.

Sarah Jane

[outraged] You…! Wait…! Till I… get… out!

Sarah Jane

I can manage! I don't need your help, thank you!

Yes you do, yes you do.

Sarah Jane

Ow!

Splendid.

Sarah Jane

[yanks back] Go away!

You've done marvelously, Sarah. I'm very proud of you. I really am very proud of you.

Sarah Jane

[shocked] What? ...Conned again, you're a brute!

Me, a brute?

Sarah Jane

Yes.

Don't be ungrateful. I was only encouraging you. Come on.

I don't remember inviting you two.

Sarah Jane

No, you didn't. But here we are.

You say you came here by TransMat beam?

That's right.

There's no TransMat system on this planet. The Earth's been junked!

Temporarily abandoned perhaps; but not junked,

Clock expert?!

Well Horologist, actually. And chronomotrist. I just love clocks.

Harry

Doctor! I thought you were dead.

Not me [He holds up a piece of metal.] Piece of the synestic locking mechanism from Nerva's rocket — popped it in my pocket.

Harry

Fortuitous.

Foresight. You never know when these bits and pieces will come in handy. Never throw anything away, Harry. [He throws it away.] Now, where's my five hundred year diary. I remember jotting some notes on the Sontarans... It's a mistake to clutter one's pockets, Harry.

Ah, welcome, Doctor.

What's going on? Don't you realize how dangerous it is to intercept a transmat beam?

Oh come, Doctor, not with our techniques. We Time Lords transcended such simple mechanical devices when the universe was less than half its present size.

Look, whatever I've done for you in the past, I've more than made up for. I will not tolerate this continual interference in my life.

Continual? We pride ourselves we seldom interfere in the affairs of others.

Except mine.

You, Doctor, are a special case. You enjoy the freedom we allow you. In return, occasionally, not continually, we ask you to do something for us.

I won't do it. Whatever it is, I refuse.

Daleks.

[interested] Daleks? Tell me more.

We foresee a time when they will have destroyed all other life forms and become the dominant creature in the universe.

That's possible. Tell on.

We'd like you to return to Skaro at a point in time before the Daleks evolved.

Do you mean avert their creation?

Or affect their genetic development so that they evolve into less aggressive creatures.

Hmmm... That's feasible.

General Ravon

Take a good look. In a few weeks, we're gonna change the shape of that map forever. We'll wipe the Thals from the face of Skaro!

Yes, I've heard that before...

General Ravon

What?

I was just wondering how you propose to wipe the Thals from the face of Skaro with boy soldiers, no ammunition, and very young generals.

Now, Alexander the Great... you're going to lead us out of here.

General Ravon

Never!

You won't get any medals for being stupid, general. In fact, you won't be getting any more medals for anything.
