Doctor Who quotes

Nice Fjord! That is a fjord innit? Got your bearings yet, doc?

[Tasting soil] Norway. Definitely Norway. One of the frilly bits at the top.

D'you think it's safe?

I doubt it. It's a juddering dimensional portal in a mirror in a Norwegian bedroom.

You want the whole universe. Someone who has seen it all, and that's me. I've lived longer, seen more, loved more, and lost more. I can share it all with you, anything you want to know about what you never had. Cause he's an idiot with a daughter who needs him. So let him go, and I will give you everything.

I need to be honest with you, because I am really grateful for everything you've done for me. Well, for us, you know. Everywhere we've been, all the adventures. Been amazing. But if that is the creature from Sheffield, I will kill it, if I can, for what it did to Grace.

Go back to the TARDIS, Graham.

Nah.

I won't let you do that.

You ain't gonna have a say in it.

You're better than this. You are. You have to be. If you kill him, I can't have you travel with me. That's if you even live.

I understand.

No, you don't. We're gonna rescue hostages. Anything that compromises them is dangerous. And if you kill him, you become the same as him.

Tim Shaw. How long's it been?

Three thousand four hundred and seven years.

I bet the seven really dragged. So, what happened to you?

You did. You corrupted my recall device, banishing me across the universe to this desolate rock for the rest of my existence, unable to leave without dying. This was my curse, for failure. Or so you thought. I arrived, on the verge of death, racked by the DNA bombs.

But you got more than you could possibly have wished for. The Ux.

The Universe provides.

You brought us all together. You ain't going to tear us apart. You ain't worth killing. But you can have a taste of your own medicine.

We're not weak, we're strong. And we sentence you to life.

So, as you're contemplating eternity, keep one name on your mind...

[speaking together] Grace.

None of us know for sure what's out there. That's why we keep looking. Keep your faith. Travel hopefully. The universe will surprise you, constantly.

Whoops.

You've landed on my chair.

Sorry.

You broke my chair.

Well, if you will leave chairs around the place,...

This is my front room!

Be gentle. He's been through a lot.

I know.

No. You have no idea.

I just want... me and him to be a family again.

Family isn't just about DNA, Aaron. Or a name. It's about what you do. And you haven't done enough.

What do you need me to say? Hmm? 'Cause I want to say it.

Okay. You say "Ryan,... I'm sorry. I've messed up. I am never good enough. I've let you down. A lot. And I always made life hard for you. And if it meant that, over the years, you ever felt lonely, or abandoned, or didn't know where to turn, or who to talk to, or how to be, then I'm sorry. 'Cause...'cause you mustn't ever think that you didn't deserve my love."

You didn't ever think that.

Yeah. Why wouldn't you?.... Okay. Listen. Here's what you find out when you get older. There's things you done in your life... to others. The decisions you've made... maybe when... things were difficult... you get it wrong. But by the time you realize you got it wrong,... it's too late. You can't fix it because the damage is done. So you run. 'Cause you're too ashamed... to make it right. That's what I did.

No. You hid when I needed ya. First Mum. Then Nan.

I'm not hiding anymore.

Earth is now under the control of the Daleks.

No. It's not. You couldn't even control one person.

Humanity will surrender.

It really won't. Trust me. I've seen them in action. They fall off so many things, including the worst of their own people. They're really something. Have you not worked that out yet? Even the recon scout Dalek, the first ones out of Skaro. Humanity bands together, vanquishes you, and buries you for centuries.

Yet I survived.

Yeah. You're good at that. But it won't be enough.

This planet is annexed. The fleet will be summoned.

You don't have the ability. You don't have the strength.

You are weak. Humanity is weak.

Except... I'm not human. Have a scan.

[recoiling] Who are you? Identify

Oh, mate. I'm the Doctor. Ring any bells?

Come on then, you lot. Places to go.

When you say "Places to go",... where're you thinking? Where to next?

I was thinking... Everywhere.

She was found unconscious on the floor of an aeroplane washroom on a flight to Tokyo. She'd made pre-arranged contact with an informant.

Is she in a coma?

Apparently, it's a little more horrific than that. [hands the Doctor a tablet] Now, I'm told this is your expertise - dealing with the impossible.

You're right. It is impossible. Her DNA's been rewritten, every strand corrupted and reshaped. She's no longer human - just a shell with a human appearance.

Is she gonna live, Doc?

There's nothing of her to live. It's like she's been erased. This is beyond any human technology.

Ah... I was rather worried you were gonna say that. Doctor, the security of this entire planet is at stake. Can we rely on you?

Never been good at sprinting?

I was the last one in every race at school.

No no no, I read your file. You were a champion sprinter.

[thinks for a moment... then smiles] Got me. Well done.

What's going on, Doc?

I don't know.

You'd best take a look out the window.

How is your house out there?

It's all a bit Wicked Witch of the West, but you get the gist. Maybe. Maybe not. Oh come on, Doctor, catch up. You can do it.

[shocked] Ohhh...

[laughs gleefully] That's my name, and that is why I chose it. So satisfying! Doctor, I did say, "Look for the spymaster". Or should I say, spy... Master? [gives a little wave] Hi.

[horrified] You can't be.

Oh, I can be. I very much am.

When I arrange for your death, I expect you to stay dead. How did you escape? How did you end up here?

[realizing] Ah... you don't know. You're not in control of those creatures. I bet you don't even know what they are.

They're called the Kasaavin, and we have interests in common.

You, Barton, and a race you barely know. That's one uneasy alliance. Trust each other, do ya?

Oh, completely. By the way, I bring news from home.

Down, Doctor! [uses the steam machine gun to fire at the Master]

This is not designed for use by a young lady!

Nothing is! And yet, I find myself more than capable! [fires off several more shots, hitting the Master in the arm] All of you, out!

Ada, I really do not approve!

Run all you like, Doctor! You won't get far without a TARDIS!

Don't have a TARDIS. [Ada pulls the pin on a grenade and hurls it at the Master, forcing him to dodge] Do have an Ada.
