    I absolutly hate.
    Jenny, the doctors daughter. Her presence is cheesy and annoyin enough

    But i truly hate her first line. "Hello dad" I just want to punch her! Thats it really

    Oh dear yes!

    That entire episode was not New DWs finest hour (45 minutes even) as it is but she was just teeth gratingly irksome. Like one of those smug attention grabbing harpies you find on the Lloyd Webber talent shows. All T&T and zero talent. :mad:

    Both great, but neither beats 'if you had remembered to bring your shoes you could have lent her hers'
    The Keys of Marinus

    The one that always sends a terrible shudder of pure cringe down my spine is Martha in S4

    'Doctor...it's Martha and I'm bringing you back to earth'

    Probably a bit off topic as it is certainly not a favourite though there is something oddly compelling in the whole abominable and smug way she says it. It just sticks out like a very sore thumb and even among some of the fantastical nonsensical beautiful rubbish spoken in DW it sounds very unnatural. It almost sounds more suited for something you would find being uttered by Voiceover Man on cheesy American trailers and seems to have been put there purely to lead into the title sequence.

    Utterly utterly horrid!

    ooh blimey, forgot about that one!

    Woo, first ever post in the Doctor Who forum

    I LOVE the line in the Fires of Pompeii where the soothsayer goes, 'no man is allowed to enter the temple of the Sybil' and the doctor responds, 'oh that's alright then. Just us girls!'

    Always makes me chuckle

    also, for some reason I really like it when he calls Amy "Pond"

    I love that, and when he shouted "amelia" in a stern techer like voice in VOTD - Brilliant
    ...and to Dr Tryst from 'Nightmare of Eden' with:

    'ze professor and I vorked together for many years. Until he died. Then, ve stopped'.:D

    great stuff.

    I would like to 'nominate' a GOOD line from this series actually.
    In ep2 when Liz 10 says:

    "I'm the bloody Queen, mate"

    I love that line and especially the delivery - made me grin on each of the three times I have seen it. :D

    Love that too

    Another fave is from androids of Tara

    "do you mind not standing on my chest my hats on fire"

    cheesy as they come but utterly brilliant

    Probably not well known quotes compared to some of the above but my fave three are:

    Genesis Of The Daleks. When the Doctor puts his arm across Harry to stop him entering that thingy because he wants tea and is told he will get no further warnings. How does he respond? 'No Tea, Harry!'

    Then my other fave Tom Baker moment. Commenting on Scarlioni's butler in City Of Death. 'What a great Butler. He's so terribly Violent!' (Plus every other line in that scene!)

    One of my faves though is the sixth Doctor in Mindwarp. the skidaddle technique. He thinks the rak has just winked at Peri. She says cheek. 'No accounting for Alien taste!' he replies!

    :D:D:D

    "You ham fisted bun vendor!"

    Think that's the correct quote

    Not ringing any bells. Are you sure you aren't thinking of 'you ham fisted bungler'?

    It would be a nice euphemism if bungler were an obscenity...

    "Ham fisted bun vendor" is correct. I think it's from Terror of the Autons.

    I'd also nominate "The backblast backlash will bounce back and destroy us all!" from Warriors' Gate.

    I'm going to have to check out Terror of the Autons, now. Which episode was it?

    Totally agree with you on this one! Dreadful (and made all the worse by Freema's lack of acting skills).

    A favourite of mine is in the parallel universe in Inferno when the Doctor tells the Brigade Leader that he doesn't exist in his world to which the Brigade Leader replies "Then you won't feel the bullets when we shoot you".

    I agree about the 'I think you need a doctor' line, but the Dalek line about Coffee is pretty cheesier.

    What has that got to do with completely cheesey quotes?! Who cares about the fact you think the Doctor is rude to Martha?

    I think this was the only stain on an otherwise brilliant scene. How that made it in I will never know. I must also admit, it annoys me when Rose says "Every single atom of your existence and I divide them". It just seems very out of place at that moment- the rest seems a little magical and that seemed to be trying to hard to get a little bit of science in there. Am I making any sense, haha????

    That said, apparently the most cheesy line was in Fear Her, but I never realised what that was :eek:

    "There's nothing you can do to stop this catharsis of spurious morality!"
    from TOATL. Awful, but strangly poetic in its ineptitude.

    It always irked me that when Sarah Jane and Rose were trying to one-up each other in School Reunion Rose didn't say the ultimate one-up.

    Sarah Jane: Daleks!
    Rose: Met the emperor. Killed him

    To paraphrase Capt. Jack, "Genocide's OK when you're blonde!"

    There's seldom a good-sounding line about atoms. What about:

    'She's just atoms, Doctor!'

    Feh!
