Harriet Jones quotes from Doctor Who

(after being told she can't go into the conference room) Damn. You've seen through my cunning plan.

He is hidden in the howling void, he is hidden within the tempest...

What...?

He has braved the storm, and the darkness, and the pain. And he whispered to the vessel.

Wh-- Who has? What do you mean?

For all this time, he whispered, and delighted, and seduced, and the vessel did obey, for none shall be more mighty and none shall be more wise than the king himself.

Harriet. What are you doing?

And the Lord of Time was blind and vain and knew nothing.

But who am I?!

There is the Toymaker, the god of games. There is Trickster, the god of traps. There is Maestro, the god of music. There is Reprobate, the god of spite.

No, no, no! Get away from her! Don't touch her!

There is the Mara, the god of beasts, and the threefold deity of malice and mischief and misery.

Warning. Manifestation.

There are gods of skin and shame and secrets.

Doctor, she needs you!

There is Incensor, the god of disaster, and her children called Doubt and Dread. And standing on high is the mother and father and other of them all.

Whatever it is... here it comes.

For the god of all gods has returned. And his names are many. His name has been Set, and Seth, and Sithifer. And his one true name for evermore is... Sutekh!

...It was the wrong anagram.

Probable trap... 100%.

Mel, get away from her. Both of you, don't let her touch you!

Bailey, get back. Leave her alone.

You said you were a doctor! Why don't you try to help...?

Sutekh is the god of death, and by his hand, all creation shall fall into dust and ashes and ruin!

I bring Sutekh's gift of death... to all humanity.

Sutekh

I am Sutekh, the god of death. I am the night. I am the terror. I am the loss.

[approached by a robed, hooded figure] Mum?

Sutekh

And all life will perish at my hand! [laughs]

Did you think I was family, Doctor? I bring Sutekh's gift of death... for you, and for all in your tiny, vile, incessant universe!

[recurring line — brandishing ID card] Harriet Jones, Prime Minister.

Yes, I know who you are.

The transmission didn't come from the surface of Mars. Guinevere One was broadcasting from a point five thousand miles above the planet.

In other words, they've got a ship and the probe is on board.

But-but if they're not from the surface, then...they might not be from Mars itself. Maybe they're not actual Martians.

[matter-of-factly; to Daniel] Of course not. Martians look completely different. We think the ship was in flight when they just came across the probe.

And they're moving. The ship's still in flight now. We've [turns around and begins typing] got it on the Hubble Array.

Moving in which direction?

Towards us. [a graphic appears, showing Earth, Mars, and the Sycorax ship]

How fast?

Very fast.

I'm getting demands from Washington, ma'am. The President is insisting that he takes control of the situation.

You can tell the President, and please use these exact words: "he's not my boss, and he's certainly not turning this into a war". [leaves, goes to Alex] What have you got?

[frustrated] Nothing yet. Translating an alien language is going to take time.

How far off is the ship?

About five hours.

What is that?! What's happening?!

[outraged, glaring at Harriet] That was murder.

That was defence. It's adapted from alien technology. A ship that fell to Earth ten years ago.

But they were leaving!

You said yourself, Doctor, they'd go back to the stars and tell others about the Earth. I'm sorry, Doctor, but you're not here all the time; you come and go. It happened today. Mister Llewellyn and the Major, they were murdered. They died right in front of me while you were sleeping. In which case, we have to defend ourselves.

[disgusted] "Britain's Golden Age".

It comes with a price.

I gave them the wrong warning. I should have told them to run, as fast as they can, run and hide, because the monsters are coming: the human race!

Those are the people I represent. I did it on their behalf.

Then I should have stopped you.

What does that make you, Doctor? Another alien threat?

[stepping towards her] Don't challenge me, Harriet Jones! 'Cause I'm a completely new man! I could bring down your government with a single word!

[glaring back at him] You're the most remarkable man I've ever met. But I don't think you're quite capable of that.

No, you're right, not a single word. Just six.

I don't think so.

Six words.

Stop it!

Six. [walks over to Alex and whispers to him] Don't you think she looks tired? [glares at Harriet one more time before leaving with Rose, Jackie and Mickey]

[rushing over to Alex] What did he say?

[nervously] Oh, well, nothing, really--

[frantically] What did he say?!

Uh, nothing, I don't know--

[hysterical] Doctor! Doctor, what did you--?! What was that?! What did he say?! What did you say, Doctor?! Doctor! [quietly, starting to look remorseful] I'm sorry.

Captain, I'm transferring the subwave network to Torchwood. You're in charge now. And tell the Doctor from me: he chose his companions well. It's been an honour. [Three Daleks break in. Harriet stands up, dignified, and faces the Daleks] Harriet Jones, former Prime Minister!

Yes, we know who you are.

Oh, you know nothing of any human, and that will be your downfall. [dies]
