Mickey quotes from Doctor Who

My mum's here.

Oh, that's just what I need! Don't you dare make this place domestic!

You ruined my life, Doctor. [the Doctor turns and looks at him, irritated] They thought she was dead, I was a murder suspect because of you!

[looks at Rose] See what I mean? Domestic!

I bet you don't even remember my name!

Ricky.

It's Mickey!

No, it's Ricky.

I think I know my own name!

You think you know your own name? How stupid are you?

We've got to tell someone.

Who do we trust? For all we know, they've all got big... bog monsters inside of 'em! I mean, this is what he does, Jacks. That Doctor bloke. Everywhere he goes, death and destruction. And he's got Rose in the middle of it.

Has he got a great big green thing inside him, then?

I wouldn't put it past him. But like it or not, he's the only person who knows how to fight these things.

I just went down the shop, and I was thinking, you know, like, the whole world's changed. Aliens and spaceships, all in public. And here it is. [shows a newspaper dismissing the crashing Slitheen ship as a hoax] How could they do that?! They saw it!

They're just not ready. You're happy to believe in something that's invisible, but if it's staring you in the face, nope, can't see it. There's a scientific explanation for that: you're thick!

[amused] We're just idiots.

[smiling] Well, not all of you.

[after he, Rose, Jack and The Doctor have just exited the TARDIS] That old lady's staring.

[to the Doctor] Probably wondering what four people were doing in a small box.

[disdainful look at Jack] What are you Captain of, the "Innuendo Squad"?

[after the Doctor explains why the TARDIS resembles a Police Public Call Box] But that's what I meant: there's no police boxes anymore, so doesn't it get noticed?

Ricky, let me tell you something about the human race. You put a mysterious blue box slap-bang in the middle of town, what do they do? Walk past it. Now stop your nagging. Let's go and explore.

But what do I do every day, Mum? Get up. Go to work. Catch the bus, eat chips, and go to bed.

It's what the rest of us do.

But I can't.

Because you’re better than us?

No, I didn't mean that. But it was, it was a better life. I don’t mean all the travelling and seeing aliens and spaceships and things. That don't matter. The Doctor showed me a better way of living your life. [to Mickey] You know, he showed you too. [continues] You don't just give up. You don’t just let things happen. You make a stand. You say "no." You have the guts to do what's right when everyone else just runs away, and I just can't...! [runs out in tears]

[smiling] Umm... what are you doing that for?

'Cos you told me to.

[smile slowly fades] When was that?

About half an hour ago.

[sheepish] Umm... you can let go now.

How long has it been since I could've stopped?

Ten minutes? Twenty? Twenty-nine?

I thought I was broadcasting to the Security Services - what do I get? Scooby-Doo and his gang! They've even got the van!

No, no, no, but the Preachers know what they're doing. Ricky said he's London's Most Wanted.

Yeah, that's not exactly...

Not exactly what?

I'm London's Most Wanted for... parking tickets.

Great...!

Yeah, they were deliberate. I was fighting the system! Park anywhere, that's me.

Good policy. I do much the same.

Then let's go liberate France.

[incredulous] What, in a van?

There's nothing wrong with a van. I once saved the universe with a big yellow truck!

This male registers as enemy.

The female's heartbeat has increased!

[wryly] Yeah, tell me about it.

Identify him!

All right then. You really want to know? That's the Doctor.

Five million Cybermen? Easy. One Doctor? Now you're scared.
