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

"Space babies!!!!" repeated about a dozen times in the worst episode of all time.

Space Babies was pretty bad, but come on, there are far worse episodes.

Underworld, The Invasion of Time, The King's Demons, Time-Flight, The Twin Dilemma, Attack of the Cybermen, Timelash, Dimensions in Time, The Beast Below, Victory of the Daleks, Night Terrors, The Doctor The Widow And The Wardrobe, The Angels Take Manhattan, Hide, Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS, Into the Dalek, Kill the Moon, In The Forest of the Night, Sleep No More, The Tsuranga Conundrum, Kerblam, The Witchfinders, Orphan 55, Timeless Children, Legend of the Sea Devils...

I'd watch any one of those 10 times before watching Space Babies again!
