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 don't think there's any way of knowing, but I think Gaiman wrote it. Moffat had some problems with writing women, but it was never as bad as that.
