Count Scarlioni quotes from Doctor Who

Doctor, how very nice to see you again. Seems like only 474 years since we last met.

Indeed, indeed, yes. I so much prefer the weather in the early part of the 16th century, don't you?

How very curious. Two thieves enter the Louvre Gallery and come out.. With a bracelet! Couldn't you think of anything more interesting to steal?

Well, I just thought it was awfully pretty, er... terribly unusual design. 'Course it would have been much nicer to have stolen one of the pictures, but I've tried that before, and all sorts of alarms go off, which disturbs the concentration.

Hah-hah, yes it would. So you stole the bracelet simply because it's... pretty.

Yes. ...Well, I think it is; don't you?

Yes...

The Countess Scarlioni

My dear, I don't think he's as stupid as he seems.

My dear, nobody could be as stupid as he seems.

I wouldn't make a very good criminal, would I?

No. [brandishes pistol] Good criminals don't get caught. I see you've found some of my pictures. Rather good, aren't they? By the end of this evening, I shall have a seventh.

May I ask you where you got these?

No.

Or how you knew they were here?

No.

They've been bricked up a long time...

Yes.

I like concise answers!

Good. I came down to find Kerensky.

Oh?

But he doesn't seem to be able to speak to me. [Duggan knocked him out earlier]

Oh.

Can you throw any light on that?

No...

Duggan

I can.

Duggan, why is it that every time I start to talk to someone, you knock him unconscious?

Now Count, this is what I've come to say. If you're thinking of going back in time, you better forget it.

Now why do you say that?

Well, because I'm going to stop you.

Oh no, on the contrary, Doctor. You're going to help me.

I am?

You are, indeed. And if you do not, it'll be so much the worse for you, for this young lady, and for thousands of other people I could mention if I happened to have the Paris telephone directory on my person.

Count, that sort of blackmail won't work, because I know what the consequences will be if you get what you wanted. I can't let you fool about with time.

What else do you ever do?

[caught out] ...Ah, well, I'm a professional; I know what I'm doing.
