Best. Who line. EVER.

The Doctor: "You know when grown-ups tell you everything's gonna be fine, and YOU think they're probably lying, to make you feel better?"

Girl: *looks annoyed in memory* "Yes"

The Doctor: *gives her a look* "Everything's going to be fine." *reaches out to take her hand*

Eee hee hee. "What sort of job's a kiss-o-gram?" "I go to parties and I kiss people. In outfits... It's a laugh!" "You were a little girl five minutes ago!" "You're worse than my aunt!" "I'm the Doctor, I'm worse than everybody's aunt! ...and that is not how I'm introducing myself."
******

Oh, that's just not right. He just did something that was way, WAY too much like Ben. Not right, NOT RIGHT. *grumble grumble Doctor should never be reminding me of ex boyfriends, never mind that Tennant used to remind me of someone sometimes it's still not fair* *also, still disturbed that he's my age*

"I'm worse than everybody's aunt" - hee hee hee hee hee! Or perhaps "Oh My Giddy Aunt!" (the Brig says it too! I was shocked!)

Speaking of "but he's my age" we just watched "The Time Monster" last night, and I'm now convinced that what an unnecessarily young Doctor needs in a companion is Professor Reubish. (We also noticed that Reubish is perhaps the only person on the entire show whose first reaction to time travel is not "I want to go home." - even though it maybe should have been).

Wait, wasn't Reubish from "The Time Warrior"? I thought for sure...

Yes yes yes - ugh, I've been mixing up those two names all day! They're both such good episodes, you see.

These things happen to the best of us. *grins*

And to me too, apparently ;)

Also, I still adore the first exchange, because it's something that absolutely BELONGS in the show.

I think I had to have been there, I'm afraid. Like, at all in the last four seasons. But I'll catch up! I'm in season 11 right now - that's only 21 more to go, right?

20, I think.

I don't think the exchange fits because of the new series though - fact is, the Doctor's life goes from one disaster to another, and yet he goes through it smiling. So here we have him telling a girl essentially just that: No, this is not safe, but we're going to do this and get through it together.
