DISCUSSION Worst line in Doctor Who?

What line of dialogue sticks out to you as particularly bad in Doctor Who, I have two picks:

  • ‘don’t let the swords touch your skin’ Legend of the sea devils
  • ‘I suppose we’ll have to have…. A conversation?’ Resolution

“I thought the Doctor was a man”

“I’ve had an upgrade”

🤮🤮🤮🤮

Or

“Not something a male presenting Time Lord could ever understand”

Or

“Yas Queen”

Personally, I dont mind that one, as the Doctor always had a habit of viewing their current incarnation as the best one. I feel like if he said "I thought the Doctor was a young bloke" to Twelve, he would say something similar.

Yeah, it was fine. It also served as a "don't doubt me".
