Quotes

Destiny of the Daleks: Episode One

Doctor Who

Edit
  • [Fallen debris pins down the Doctor. Romana goes for help]
  • Romana: Don't go away, will you?
  • The Doctor: I rather hoped you'd resist the temptation to say that.
  • The Doctor: Oh, look! Rocks!
  • [Romana walks in, having regenerated as Princess Astra]
  • The Doctor: Sorry, I thought you were Romana. Have you seen her?
  • [softly]
  • The Doctor: What are you doing here?
  • Romana: Regenerating. Do you like it?
  • The Doctor: Regenerating? What are you talking about, regenerating? Only Time Lords regenerate. Look it's awfully nice to see you, Princess Astra...
  • Romana: *Romana.*
  • The Doctor: "Romana?" Ah...
  • [K9 starts to interrupt him]
  • The Doctor: Shut up, K9. What are you doing in that body?
  • Romana: Regenerating. Do you like it?
  • The Doctor: But you can't wear that body!
  • Romana: I thought it looked very nice on the Princess.
  • [last lines]
  • [Daleks burst out of a wall and corner Romana]
  • Daleks: Do not move. Do not move. Do not move. Do not move. Do not move. Do not move. You are our prisoner - do not move. You are our prisoner!
  • The Doctor: Listen. You listen to me in there. What you want is something warm and sensible. Something that will wear well. Something with a bit of style and, well, style. You know?
  • [the newly regenerated Romana returns, wearing the Third Doctor's spare coat, scarf and floppy hat - these are several sizes too big for her]
  • The Doctor: How about this, Doctor?
  • Romana: Exactly! Good, heavens, that's exactly right. Ha! I never realised you had such a sense of style.
  • The Doctor: I thought you said external appearances weren't important.
  • Romana: Ah, but it's nice to get them right, isn't it?
  • The Doctor: What a brain, ohh, what a brain.
  • [K9 coughs]
  • The Doctor: Do that again
  • [K9 coughs]
  • The Doctor: Say "Ahhh".
  • [K9 weakly does so]
  • The Doctor: Ahh, ahh. Laryngitis. How can a robot catch laryngitis? I mean, what do you need it for, hmm? Romana! Laryngitis?
  • Romana: Doctor.
  • The Doctor: Romana, the dog's got laryngitis. I th .. sorry I thought you were Romana, have you seen her?
