DOCTOR: It’s the most extraordinary thing. I can’t seem to find my sonic screwdriver anywhere.

LAWRENCE: You’re not proposing to dismantle a piece of equipment worth fifteen million pounds with a screwdriver?

DOCTOR: Well, it’s not worth fifteen million pins if it doesn’t work, is it?

PERI: I thought he was dead.

MASTER: As you observe, I’m very much alive. Your erstwhile mentor, on the other hand, is about to, I believe your modern expression is, snuff the candle.

DOCTOR: Snuff the candle? You always did lack style.

MASTER: Style is hardly the prime characteristic of your new regeneration.

RANI: Oh, do stop squabbling and get on with it.

DOCTOR: Your species has the most amazing capacity for self-deception, matched by only its ingenuity when trying to destroy itself.

DOCTOR: Weapons. Always useless in the end.

ACE: His hand? What good was that?

DOCTOR: No, no, not his hand literally. No, no, it's called that because Time Lords have an infinite capacity for pretension.

ACE: I've noticed that.

DOCTOR: Dalek hunting is a terminal pastime.

ACE: So what are we doing?

DOCTOR: Dalek hunting.

Barbara: We've seen things no one else in our time has seen, or will ever see, she said. 'Ancient man; the Aztecs; the French Revolution; Skaro; Marinus. We'll have that time, those memories.'

lan met her eyes for a moment, made his best ironic smile.

Ian: Oh yes, it's had its charms. Who would want to go through the whole of their life and never meet a Dalek?

Orin: He acts all human. But scrape the human bits away and you're left with just another alien.

Sam: Well, yeah. Course, you could scrape the alien bits away instead just as easily.

'Is this really a TARDIS?' asked the Mock Turtle in an awed tone. He braced himself and stepped through the double doors. 'Oh; he said, looking around.

'Surprised, eh?' Iris winked.

'But it's...' the Turtle stammered. 'It's the same size on the inside as the outside!'

'That's dimensional transcendentalism; Iris called, moving rather clumsily down the gangway. 'Pushed into the next stage. The interior dimensions are even slightly smaller than the exterior Isn't that ingenious! It's the latest thing.

CHILDERIC: (smoothly) Mother, good day. What means this armed guard that waits upon your grace?

SEJANUS: My lord Childeric. I must ask you to come no closer. Lady Berengaria is a traitor and her life is forfeit.

BERENGARIA: Childeric, go away. You know perfectly well I'm being taken off to the dungeons for ritual torture and execution. It's annoying, but there it is. And I have no desire to spend the last painful protracted hours of my existence with one of my children, thank you very much.

PEPIN: Thank God that that's all over. Which is me, isn't it? Thank me.

SCRIBE: Well done, your omnipotence. That was word perfect.

PEPIN: Except for that bit with the coin. Damn it, I should have been better prepared...

FROBISHER: Do you mean that was all a ceremony?

DOCTOR: Of course.

SCRIBE: The ritual of the coronation is always followed by the ritual of the assassination attempt. Has been since time immemorial.

DOCTOR: Private, do not enter. Oh, pity. Maybe | should tell them that that's ancient Gallifreyan for come on in, Doctor, have a snoop round.

CHARLEY: So, we find Grayle and shoot him.

DOCTOR: We do not shoot him.

CHARLEY: Or catapult him. Or feed him to the lions.

DOCTOR: We find out if he's contacted his alien masters yet, and try to stop whatever he's doing.

CHARLEY: You do always go the pretty way. I'm joking.

DOCTOR: Are you?

CHARLEY: Or we could stone him, or throw him off the wall of the fort.

DOCTOR: Charley.

MIRIAM: Ah. In fact, we do want him to exterminate them. The President, his supporters.

EVELYN: You told me it would be a bloodless revolution.

MIRIAM: It will be. Dalek guns do not puncture the skin.

EVELYN: What are you going to do to me now? Put me back in that cell? Let me age to death again?

MIRIAM: Oh no, nothing like that. I'm going to do your make-up.

DOCTOR: Obviously, if I had the choice between travelling through all time and space in total freedom, or walking blindly down a glass tube only stopping once in a while to sample the local cuisine and have neck nibbled, I'd choose the former.

CHARLEY: Well, quite.

NARVIN: Be careful! You’ll break it!

ROMANA: I’ll break you in a minute.

ROMANA: One day, K9, remind me to listen to you when you interrupt me.

K9: Affirmative, mistress.

K9: The Doctor once passed comment that time heals, mistress.

LEELA: The Doctor is not here. He has gone forever, and he was not always right.

(Indistinct eerie voice)

K9: (Processing noise) Indeed, mistress, but comparing the times he was correct against the

times he was incorrect, on balance–

LEELA: Quiet, K9.

K9: Bu- But–

LEELA: I wish I had databanks.

K9: Mistress?

LEELA: With a flick of a switch I could turn myself off. Become unaware of all that has happened. To me, to Romana... to Andred...

ROMANA: Six moons influencing the tides. Two of them orbit in a retrograde motion to the other four.

LEELA: Retrograde...?

ROMANA: Well, they move in the opposite direction.

LEELA: They circle all around, like enemies eyeing each other.

ROMANA: (Chuckles) You could say that.

LEELA: My heart, then, has sympathies with the sea. Roused, and calm, and stirred up by these different bodies whirling around me, distant and removed, locked in wary conflict, but never touching. I can only look on, tugged about by their movements.

ROMANA: You have a poetic wisdom, Leela. (Chuckles) I think I would describe the political machinations of the Capitol in rather coarser language.

ACE: Whatever you’re up to, it’s over. You might as well give up now because we’re going to stop you.

WHITE: You. Are. Gorgeous. Never change.

LIV: London again.

DOCTOR: 1963. A little after the last time you were here, but a little before the time you were here before

that.

LIV: Wow, that sentence was a model of clarity.

LIV: Look, get a move on. Someone could walk in any time.

DOCTOR: I’m going as fast as I can.

LIV: It’s an office. It’s bound to be in use.

DOCTOR: Of course it’s in use. We’re using it.
