A straight line may be the shortest distance between two points, but it is by no means the most interesting.
S11 E1The Time Warrior
[the Doctor has ferreted out Sarah Jane's identity] Are you going to give me away, Doctor?
I don't think so.
[suddenly cheering] Why not?
[leans back, tents his fingers] Well, you can make yourself useful. We need someone around here to make the coffee.
[incensed] If you think I'm going to spend my time making cups of coffee for you...
[she halts as the Doctor leaps out of his chair. Reubish is scribbling something in chalk on the side of the TARDIS]
Professor! Would you kindly desist? This isn't a blackboard, you know!
[begins to unlock the TARDIS door]
RProfessor Rubeish
Oh, I do beg your pardon, Doctor. I was just trying to prove...
What are you going to do in there?
[opens the TARDIS door] Make myself a cup of coffee. Good day to you.
Look, please. Now you've had your laugh, now, you know, just let's stop it and let's talk sensibly. I mean, if it's any consolation to you, you're scaring me out of my wits.
BBloodaxe
Perhaps the wench is crazed, Captain.
Oh, come on. What is this place?
IIrongron
You are in the castle of Irongron, my lady. Few uninvited guests come here and few that do leave alive.
All right, if you insist on playing guessing games. Now, it's not a village pageant, it's too elaborate for that. A film set. No. No, no lights, no cameras.
IIrongron
Aye, the wench is crazed right enough. A pity. She is not uncomely.
I've got it! It's one of those tourist places. A medieval castle all restored to its original condition, with jolly banquets and buxom serving wenches. That's it, isn't it? Mind you, I think you're overdoing the sordid realism a bit. I mean, I know things were a bit grotty in the Middle Ages, but, really, you might leave the tourists a bit of glamorous illusion. I've never seen such a scurvy, smelly--
IIrongron
For pity's sake, cease this babbling, girl!
LLinx
Ah, I understand. You have a primary and a secondary reproductive cycle. [beat] It is an inefficient system, you should change it.
You're serious, aren't you?
About what I do? Yes, not necessarily the way I do it.
IIrongron
By heavens, Bloodaxe, 'tis like a tin tadpole - you cut off its head, and yet it wriggles!
S11 E2Invasion of the Dinosaurs
GFGeneral Finch
Waiting for this mysterious scientific advisor of yours to turn up?
That's right, sir.
GFGeneral Finch
[Sarcastically] I suppose he'll just materialize out of thin air.
Very probably.
SSoldier
It's coming this way, sir!
Good grief.... It's a Stegosaurus!
S11 E3Death to the Daleks
[Railton leads the five people and three Daleks. In a dried river bed, the Doctor spots soil tumbling down the deep sides. Everyone stops and looks around. Suddenly, Railton is shot in the back by an arrow]
Take cover!
Locate the enemy! Locate the enemy!
[As the Dalek repeatedly cries "Locate", Jill runs to Railton, but he is dead. Exxilons appear on the skyline as the men find a dug-out depression to hide]
JJill
Help me with him! Help me!
It's no good, we can't help him.
JJill
But please, we can't leave him here!
[More arrows thud into the ground nearby]
Quick, come on! Out, come on!
Doctor! We were just playing the main part in a sacrificial ceremony, weren't we?
Well, that seemed to be the general idea, yes.
Well, how are they going to sacrifice us just by dumping us down here?
Yes, I knew that thought would occur to you, sooner or later.
You've got an idea, haven't you?
Yes. And it's not one of my favorites. In fact, I don't care for it at all.
Well, you might as well share it.
Oh, very well. I think they expect that sacrifice to be completed by something else. Something that lives down this tunnel.
[And right on cue comes a strange warbling sort of roar]
Next time you get an idea, keep it to yourself, will you?
[The Doctor and Sarah Jane hear another strange, mechanical roaring sound]
That sounded awfully close.
Some sort of subterranean wind effect, I should think.
[And another]
Who are you kidding?
Myself, chiefly.
[Two Daleks enter the tunnel. As the Doctor and Sarah walk on, something similar to an Exxilon follows them. The roar again]
I just heard your wind effect gnashing its teeth. Well, which way now?
I think I'll make a short reconnaissance down this tunnel here. Alone.
[pointing] Doctor! Look! Look at the city!
[They watch as the now powerless city gives in to the ravages of time and rapidly decays into a pile of rubble]
It's rather a pity, in a way...now the universe is down to 699 wonders.
Human female has escaped. I have failed! Female prisoner has escaped! I HAVE FAILED I HAVE FAILED SELF-DESTRUCT! I HAVE FAILED DESTRUCT I HAVE FAILED! DESTRUCT! FAILED! FAILED! FAILED! AYYYAYYAyyayyayyayyayyayyyyaaa.... [shuts down entirely]
[attacked by Exxilon mutants] Alert! Alert! Evacuate! Evacuate! Evacuate! Retire to city entrance! Faster! Faster! I will cover you! I will cover you! Faster! Faster! Faster! Faster!
S11 E4The Monster of Peladon
The citadel of Peladon, Sarah. One of the most interesting and-
Oh no it isn't - is it, Doctor?
Well, no, not exactly.
No, it's not your precious citadel at all. It's another rotten gloomy old tunnel!
Yes, well, with the scanner still on the blink, there was no way I could really check.
There's more than the scanner on the blink.
