Are we interrupting you?
This is all Alan’s fault. He posted a meme, which I usually ignore, but couldn’t resist given my current TV addictions… Very simple, When you see this, post a quote from Doctor Who on your journal. Well I had to be a little bit subversive, so I’m posting a video with a favorite moment. Not a quote exactly, because… you’ll see. It’s from the current season
I know a lot of people were not a fan of Catherine Tate coming in as companion Donna Noble, but I was thrilled. Admittedly, she’s no Martha Jones and no Rose (who I’m not all that keen on anyway) but she brings a more classic companion feel to the series and is much more of a foil to the character of The Doctor. Then again, Tegan Jovanka was one of my favorite companions and I feel that Donna is a worthy successor to her mantle.
If you’re into Who, feel free to post a quote on your own, and if you’re up to date with the current season, let me know so we can dish!
OK, yeah, that one was pretty cute 😉
Oh, yes, that scene was special.
My all-time favorite quote is brief, but a masterly example of British understatement. In “Robot” the newly regenerated fourth Dr is banging around in the Tardis trying to come up with clothing and accoutrements for his new “look” all the while UNIT is facing yet another epic crisis. Sarah Jane and the Brigadier are trying to get him to hurry up and come along. He pops out of the Tardis wearing a Viking helmet and a bearskin cloak and brandishing a sword. He then asks them whether they think he will attract attention, and the Brigadier says, “It’s just possible!”
Then there were the seventh Dr’s malapropisms…
That scene was great. I was laughing my ass off through it.
My favorite bit of dialogue was in the episode The Girl in the Fireplace:
Rose (to the Doctor): “You’re not keeping the horse!”
The Doctor: “You got to keep Mickey!”
Oh, yes – most brilliant scene EVAR. 🙂
And I’m definitely growing to like Donna. She’s got spunk AND heart. I didn’t care much for Rose, and I hated that they made Martha have feelings for the Doctor (otherwise she was pretty awesome, too). Upon reflection, I think my favorite companion (given I never saw much of the first 2 Doctors’) was Leela. She was just fun. 😀
The hottest, of course, were Jamie and Jack. Oh, the slash I could write! Hee!
That was a hilarious scene. I watched it several times trying to make sure I caught all of the non spoken dialogue. Watching their faces, mostly Donna’s, was half the fun.
@Esprix: With Torchwood on the air, do you really have to write slash? (perv)
@James: The more I watch it, the more I realize I know exactly what Donna’s saying except for a tiny bit in the middle.
