“Professor? Doctor? Who are you?” #SilverNemesis

Happy #DoctorWhoDay everyone.

#DoctorWho

“How shall I live now, stranded, a stranger in this time?”
“I know how you feel.”
#DoctorWhoDay #SilverNemesis #DoctorWho

“Don’t worry, Doctor. I’ll look after you.”
#Ace #DoctorWhoDay #SilverNemesis #DoctorWho

“I'm really, really scared, Doctor.”
“Oh, Ace. I'm sorry. Forgive me. Why don't you go back to the Tardis? You'll be safe there, whatever happens.”
“No chance, Doctor. No chance.”
The Doctor doesn’t think he needs Ace, that she won’t change anything.
But she’s not telling him she’s scared because she wants to leave, and she won’t let him face this on his own.

“I don't know if you're familiar with Wagner's Ring das Nibelungen?”
Wagner for the Nazis and the Cybermen. Courtney Pine for the Doctor and Ace.

(There’s a reflection here of the Doctor’s relationship with Leela - preaching pacifism, but relying on her for violent enforcement at arms length) #DoctorWhoDay #SilverNemesis #DoctorWho

“I don't suppose you've completely ignored my instructions and secretly prepared any Nitro Nine, have you?”
“What if I had?”
“Naturally you wouldn't do anything so insanely dangerous as to carry it around with you, would you?”
“Of course not. I'm a good girl. I do what I'm told.”
“Excellent. Blow up that vehicle.”

“Are we having fun?”
“Yeah”

“This may qualify as the worst miscalculation since life crawled out of the seas on this sad planet.”
“Nobody's perfect.”

Ace wears a fez now. Fezzes are cool. (The Doctor obviously internalises this for ~5 regenerations.) #DoctorWhoDay #SilverNemesis #DoctorWho

“You mean the world's going to end and you've forgotten about it?”
“I've been busy.”
“How long have you known?”
“Well, in strictly linear terms, as the chronometer flies, I've known since November the twenty third, 1638.”

“Who’d want to kill us?”
“I suppose there are an infinite number of possibilities.”
#DoctorWhoDay #SilverNemesis #DoctorWho

“This is my favourite kind of jazz: straight blowing.” 🧐
I should listen to more Courtney Pine though.
“I could listen to them all afternoon.”
“And so we shall.”
Love this Doctor/Companion vibe. Ace is unsurpassed.

“When. Oh, yes. Yes, of course. On the 23rd day of November in the Year of our Lord Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Eight.”
I find it much harder to accept #SilverNemesis is a whole 37 years ago then #DoctorWho being 62.
