Quotes7

  • Sergeant Benton: Well, what are we gonna do now?
  • Dr. Who: Keep it confused. Feed it with useless information. I wonder if I have a television set handy?
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Look, just tell me this: Are you or are you not the Doctor that I met during the Yeti business and then later when the Cybermen invaded?
  • Dr. Who: Of course I am. You can see that.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Right, but then you would subsequently appear on Earth during that trouble with the Autons, only then you'd changed into a tall, thin fellow.
  • Dr. Who: Had I really? How fascinating.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Doctor, I warn you...
  • Dr. Who: It's no use your asking me about all this, Brigadier. As far as I'm concerned, it hasn't happened yet. Don't you see? I'm just a temporal anomaly.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Now, there's just two things I want from you, Doctor: an effective way of controlling that stuff and the safe return of Miss Grant.
  • Sergeant Benton: Well, what about OUR Doctor, sir? Don't you want HIM back?
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: None of that nonsense, Benton. I've GOT him back. As long as he does the job, he can wear what face he likes.
  • Dr. Who: Well, I'll do my best, but I can't make any promises.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Well, in that case, you better consult with those all-powerful superiors of yours for THEIR advice.
  • Dr. Who: Oh, I don't think THAT would do any good. At the moment, they're FAR from being all-powerful. That's why it's been left up to me and me and me.
  • Dr. Who: Here you are, Sergeant. You'll need this. Now, if it gives the slightest trouble, a little dose of that will settle it.
  • Sergeant Benton: Yes, but say that doesn't work, Doctor.
  • Dr. Who: THEN GIVE IT THE LOT!
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: All right, now we're in here, what do we do?
  • Dr. Who: Well, we have a think. Care for a jelly baby?
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: [as the Doctor finishes conversing with his previous incarnation] Who in the name of heaven was that?
  • Dr. Who: I'm afraid you'd never believe me.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: For Heaven's sake, be careful Doctor.
  • Dr. Who: No, No Brigadier leave it alone! It's not dangerous for the moment. It seems to think it's achieved it's mission.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: [Realizes The Doctor's appearance has changed] Oh no!
  • Dr. Who: Oh yes.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Yes, but you're not the... .
  • Sergeant Benton: Yes it is, Sir, it's the first one.
  • Dr. Who: How are you, Brigadier?
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Pretty well, thanks. Doctor, what the blazes are you doing, why have you changed your appearance? And what's happened to miss Grant?
  • Dr. Who: [Cuts to show the 3rd Doctor and Jo materializing in the black hole] There you are. It's all quite simple, really.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Yes, well I'm sorry but I don't believe a word of it. Look, just tell me this. Are you or are you not the Doctor that I met during the Yeti business, and then later when the Cybermen invaded?
  • Dr. Who: Of course I am, you can see that.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Right, but then you would subsequently appear on Earth during that trouble with the Autons, only then you'd changed into a tall, thin fellow.
  • Dr. Who: Had I really? How fascinating.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Doctor, I warn you.
  • Dr. Who: It's no use your asking me about all this, Brigadier. As far as I'm concerned, it hasn't happened yet. Don't you see? I'm just a temporal anomaly.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: It's quite obvious to me what's happened. You've been mucking around with that infernal machine of yours.
  • Sergeant Benton: Be careful, Sir.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: You've been mucking around with that infernal machine of yours and somehow you've changed back your appearance and shot poor Miss Grant off to "Heaven knows where".
  • Sergeant Benton: It's not quite as simple as that, Sir, honestly.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Now that'll do Benton.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: Now, there's just two things I want from you, Doctor, an effective way of controlling that stuff and the safe return of Miss Grant.
  • Sergeant Benton: Well, what about OUR Doctor, sir? Don't you want him back?
  • Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart: None of that nonsense, Benton. I've got him back. As long as he does the job, he can wear what face he likes.
  • Dr. Who: Well, I'll do my best, but I can't make any promises.
