Image of the Day # 207
Another image from the 1973 Radio Times special. Wendy Padbury (The second Doctor's companion Zoe) with presumably 'dumped' video tape in reference to the episodes which were 'dumped' by the BBC to 'save space'. |

Those wacky people at the BBC Mind you, I suppose it shows that the Daleks still have the power to scare adults

Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes The Crimson HorrorThe Doctor: Okay, so. Not London 1893. Yorkshire 1893. Near enough. Clara: You're making a habit of this, getting us lost. The Doctor: Sorry. It's much better than it used to be. Ooo, I once spent a hell of a long time trying to get a gobby Australian to Heathrow Airport. Clara: What for? The Doctor: Search me. Anyway (A woman screams.) Brave heart, Clara. **************************************** Gillyflower: Doctor and Mrs Smith. Oh yes, you'll do very nicely. [i](The Doctor does his best Michael Palin-as-a-Yorkshireman accent.[i]( The Doctor: Oh, grand. Smashing. Eh, the missis and I couldn't be more chuffed, could we, love? (Mrs Gillyflower leads them down the row of terraced homes.) Gillyflower: Sweetville will provide you with everything you need. You won't have to worry about a thing ever again. Clara: The name, Sweetville. Gillyflower: Yes? Clara: Why not name it after yourself. After al, it's your creation. The Doctor: Gillyflowertown. Gillyflowerland. You could have roller coasters. Gillyflower: It is named in tribute to my partner. The Doctor: Your late partner? Gillyflower: No, my silent partner. Mister Sweet likes to keep himself to himself *************************************** Strax [OC]: Sontar ha! (Enter Strax, in his Sontaran armour, firing his honking big gun. Vastra is close behind with a sword.) Vastra: Let's go. Jenny: No, ma'am. We're not escaping. We've got to help the Doctor with Clara. The Doctor: Long story. Strax: What now, madam? We could lay mimetic cluster mines. Vastra: Strax. Strax: Or dig trenches and fill them with acid. Vastra: Strax! You're overexcited. Have you been eating Miss Jenny's sherbet fancies again? Strax: No. Vastra: Go outside and wait for me until I call for you. Strax: But madam, I Vastra: Go! Strax: I'm going to go play with my grenades. **************************************** The Doctor: Mrs Gillyflower, you have no idea what you are dealing with. In the wrong hands, that venom could wipe out all life on this planet. (Mrs Gillyflower holds out her hands.) Gillyflower: Do you know what these are? Ha, ha! The wrong hands. *********************************** Angie: It's you, isn't it. It's from the seventies, but it's definitely you. Clara: Of course it's not. Artie: And that's you too, from 1983. I found it at school. Clara: No, that's just someone who looks like me. Angie: And that's someone that looks like your boyfriend. Artie: Is he an alien? Angie: Why would he be an alien? Artie: The chin. Angie: And the time travel? (Angie clicks on a third image, of Victorian Governess Clara.) Clara: That's not right. Angie: You were in Victorian London. Clara: No, I was in Victorian Yorkshire. Angie: How come you didn't tell us? Artie: Time travel, that's so cool. Angie: Can we have a go? Clara: Can you have a what? Artie: We want a shot at the time machine. Clara: No, no, no, no. Listen Angie: Okay. Or, we'll have to tell Dad that our nanny's a time traveller.

Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes Nightmare In SilverThe Doctor: Well, here we are. Hedgewick's World. The biggest and best amusement park there will ever be, and we've got a golden ticket. Eh? Eh? Fun. Clara: Fun? Angie: Your stupid box can't even get us to the right place. This is like a moon base or something. The Doctor: It's not the moon. Artie: Actually, I think it does look like the moon, only dirtier. The Doctor: Hey. Guys. It's not the moon, okay? It's a Spacey Zoomer ride, or it was. (A door opens in one of the large rocks, and a man wearing a tall hat looks out.) Webley: Psst. Excuse I. I don't suppose you happen to be my lift off planet? Dave's Discount Interstellar Removals? Clara: Afraid not. Webley: They were meant to be here six months ago. Well, that's Dave for you, see? Unreliable. (A woman's voice cuts through the air.) Captain [OC]: Stay where you are! Webley: Oops. (Webley ducks back inside as the military run in.) Captain: Throw down your weapons and identify yourselves. The Doctor: No. No weapons. Golden ticket. Spacey Zoomer. Free ice cream? Captain: Who are you? This planet is closed, by Imperial order. ************************************** Clara: I trust the Doctor. Captain: You think he knows what he's doing? Clara: I'm not sure I'd go that far. ************************************* The Doctor: Can someone untie me, please? Clara: Do you think I'm pretty? The Doctor: No. You're too short and bossy, and your nose is all funny. Clara: Good enough. ************************************** Artie: Thank you for having me. It was very interesting. The Doctor: My pleasure. Thank you for coming. Now, I've got something for you. It's not from me, it's from the Tardis. Ah. New phone. Angie: Thanks. The Doctor: You're welcome. Angie: Sorry I said this box was stupid. The Doctor: Bye. Angie: Bye. Thanks, Clara. Artie: Thanks, Clara's boyfriend. (Angie and Artie leave.) Clara: Thank you, Doctor. The Doctor: For what? Clara: Kid's day out. Getting us off the planet alive. Whatever you were doing with the Cybermen. Good night. See you next Wednesday. The Doctor: Well, a Wednesday, definitely. Next Wednesday, last Wednesday (Clara leaves.) One of the Wednesdays. Impossible girl. A mystery wrapped in an enigma squeezed into a skirt that's just a little bit too tight. Oh yeah. What are you?
