Ninth Doctor Quotes

Doctor: You think it'll last forever, people and cars and concrete. But it won't. One day, it's all gone. Even the sky. My planet's gone. It's dead. It burned, like the Earth. It's just rocks and dust. Before its time.

Rose Tyler: What happened?

Doctor: There was a war, and we lost.

Rose Tyler: A war with who? What about your people?

Doctor: I'm a Time Lord. I'm the last of the Time Lords. They're all gone. I'm the only survivor. I'm left travelling on my own cos there's no-one else.

Rose Tyler: There's me.

Doctor: You've seen how dangerous it is. D'you wanna go home?

Rose Tyler: I don't know. I want... Can you smell chips?

Doctor: Yeah. Yeah!

Rose Tyler: I want chips.

Doctor: Me too.

Rose Tyler: Right, then. Before you get me back in that box, chips it is. And you can pay.

Doctor: No money.

Rose Tyler: What sort of date are you? Come on, then, tightwad. Chips are on me.

(Rose hangs up the phone, she was talking with her mother back home, while she's 5 billion years in future...)

Rose Tyler: That was five billion years ago. So... She's dead now. Five billion years later, my mum's dead.

Doctor: Bundle of laughs, you are.

Rose Tyler: All right. As my mate Shireen says, don't argue with the designated driver. Can't exactly call for a taxi. No signal. We're out of range. Just a bit.

(Doctor takes her phone)

Doctor: Tell you what. With a little bit of jiggery-pokery...

Rose Tyler: Is that a technical term, jiggery-pokery?

Doctor: Yes, I came first in jiggery-pokery. What about you?

Rose Tyler: No, failed hullabaloo.

Doctor: Aw. There you go.

Doctor: What d'you think, then?

Rose Tyler: Great, yeah. Fine. Once you get past the slightly psychic paper. They're just so alien! The aliens are so alien. You look at 'em... and they're alien.

Doctor: Good thing I didn't take you to the deep South.

Rose Tyler: I've got to go and find my mum and someone's got to look after this stupid lump. So...

Doctor: OK. See you around.

(Doctor gets into the TARDIS and flies away...)

Rose Tyler (to Mickey): Come on, let's go.

(Doctor appears again...)

Doctor: By the way, did I mention it also travels in time?

Rose Tyler (to Mickey): Thanks.

Mickey Smith: Thanks for what?

Rose Tyler: Exactly.

(Rose runs into the TARDIS)

Doctor: First, I've got to find it. How can you hide something that big in a city this small?

Rose Tyler: Hold on. Hide what?

Doctor: A transmitter. The Consciousness is controlling every single piece of plastic, so it needs a transmitter to boost the signal.

Rose Tyler: What does it look like?

Doctor: Like a transmitter! Round and massive... somewhere slap banging in the middle of London. (Stops walking and has the view on the London Eye behind him) A huge, metal, circular structure, like a dish, like a wheel, radial, close to where we're standing, it must be completely invisible. (Rose is looking at the London Eye) What? What? What is it? What? Oh. (he finally gets it) Fantastic!

Doctor: Right. Where d'you want to start?

Rose Tyler: Um... The inside's bigger than the outside.

Doctor: Yes.

Rose Tyler: It's... alien.

Doctor: Yep...

Rose Tyler: Are you alien?

Doctor: Yes. Is that all right?

Rose Tyler: Yeah.

Rose Tyler: Really, though, Doctor... Tell me. Who are you?

Doctor: Do you know like we were saying? About the Earth revolving? It's like when you're a kid. The first time they tell you the world's turning and you can't believe it cos it looks like everything's standing still... I can feel it. (takes her hand) The turn of the Earth. The ground beneath our feet is spinning at 1,000 miles an hour. The entire planet is hurtling round the sun at 67,000 miles an hour. I can feel it, we're falling through Space, you and me. Clinging to the skin of this tiny little world, and if we let go... (lets go of her hand) That's who I am. Now forget me, Rose Tyler. Go home.
