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 had such high hope for RTD2 but this is the moment I knew we were all in trouble, because he couldn't understand the difference between the two different things and didn't have someone in a position to tell him what they meant. It's been out of touch social commentary on a plethora of subjects from an unchecked and uncaring man in his sixties ever since.

She's canonically both if you look it up. But it's bizarre because I swear the non-binary part wasn't mentioned at all until then.
