There we are! Well, what do you think?
I don't know... I can't believe it! [The Doctor chuckles] It's so big! Where are we?

What are all these knobs?
What, these? [Flicks a panel of levers] Instruments.
These are for controlling our flight.
[Laughs] Flight?!
Well, yes! You see, we travel around in here through time and space!
Oh, no, no, no, no, don't laugh, it's true! Your father and Maxtible were working on the same problem! But I have, perfected a, rather special model, that allows me to travel through the universe of time.
How can you? I mean, if what you say is true, then you must be about, well.... how, old..?
Well, if we counted Earth terms, I suppose I must be about 400.... yes, about 450 years old! Quite...
Now, I think Victoria might find that dress a little impractical if she's going to join us on our adventures. Jamie, show her where she can find some new ones.
Oh, aye, it's this way.
And try to give us a smooth takeoff Doctor, we don't want to frighten her.
A smooth takeoff...? A SMOOTH TAKEOFF? WHAT A NERVE! [He dematerialises the TARDIS, clearly annoyed with what Jamie had said]
