ROMANA: Oh, I do love the spring. All the leaves, the colours. DOCTOR: It's October. ROMANA: I thought that you said we were coming here for May week. DOCTOR: I did. May week's in June. ROMANA: I'm confused. DOCTOR: So was the TARDIS. ROMANA: Oh, I do love the autumn. All the leaves, the colours. — Shada DOCTOR: Well, at least with something as simple as a punt nothing can go wrong. No coordinates, no dimensional stabilisers, nothing. Just the water, a punt, a strong pair of hands and the pole. (Whereupon the pole gets stuck in the mud of the riverbed and the Doctor has to let it go. They drift on under a bridge.) — Shada SHIP: Dead men do not require oxygen. — Shada SKAGRA: Take over the universe? How childish. Who could possibly want to take over the universe? DOCTOR: Exactly. That's what I keep telling people. It's a troublesome place, difficult to administer. And as a piece of real estate, it's worthless, because by definition there'd be no one to sell it to. — Shada CHRONOTIS: More tea, my dear? ROMANA: Lovely. Two lumps, no sugar. — Shada Login to track and rate! View Rating Distribution Ratings are from TARDIS Guide members only.
