Doctor Who: Difference between revisions

Line 586:

* [[Joker Immunity]]: The Daleks, the Master, the Cybermen. Mostly the Master, really. He's a guy who just won't stay dead, and even lampshades it occasionally. The Daleks were in a war that was passing through the fabric of time and space, not to mention a few of them having the capability to make emergency temporal shifts, and thousands more being trapped in Time Lord prisons, waiting to be let out. The Cybermen ''were'' wiped out, but re-emerged from an alternate Earth where they almost took over the world and, again, were hurled through time and space, and that never seems to kill anyone permanently.

* [[Just Smile and Nod]]: He's [[Sufficiently Advanced Aliens|the]] [[Last of His Kind|Doctor]].

* [[Kangaroo Court]]: ''The Trial of a Time Lord'' and ''The Deadly Assassin''. Also Ian's trial in ''The Keys of Marinus''.

* [[Kill'Em All]]: Usually the Doctor and his companions survive, but they have been known to depart from places where all known characters died, or there ''might'' be minor survivors in the odd corners.

* [[Kinetic Weapons Are Just Better]]: In many new series stories, future humans seem to be taken to modified P90s as their weapon of choice.

* [[Kingpin in His Gym]]: Played for laughs when the Delgado Master, locked up in a sea fortress, exercises on a rowing machine. It doesn't seem to be working, though—the Doctor remarks that the Master has put on weight!

* [[Large Ham]]: [[Large Ham/Doctor Who|Has its own page]].

* [[The Last Dance]]: {{spoiler|the Tenth Doctor himself, in the 2009 specials. At the end of ''Planet of the Dead'', a low-level psychic tells him he's going to die, so he spends the next episodes running around having as many adventures possible before his inevitable [[The Nth Doctor|regeneration]]}}.

** {{spoiler|It occurs more literally in ''The End Of Time''; after receiving a fatal dose of radiation, the Doctor spends his last hours visiting the people he'd cared about during his tenth life and... well, not so much saying goodbye as helping them out from a distance and then staring sadly at them before wandering off. Except for Rose, whom [[Timey-Wimey Ball|he meets before she met him]] to have one last conversation with her. ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]'' says he visited every companion from all his incarnations}}.

** {{spoiler|And in "Closing Time", Eleven does it again in anticipation of getting [[Killed Off for Real]]}}.

Line 611:

* [[Licensed Game]]: The "adventure games" which are tied to Series 5 and 6.

** Previously there was ''Destiny of the Doctors'' in the late 1990s and a couple of simple games for the BBC Micro and ZX Spectrum.

* [[Life Drinker]]: Magnus Greel in the serial "The Talons of Weng-Chiang" attempted to stay alive by draining the life essence out of young women. Leela only just avoided suffering this fate.

* [[Light Flicker Teleportation]]: How Weeping Angels move around.

* [[Little Stowaway]]: This is how Adric got on the TARDIS.

Line 629:

{{quote|'''Ninth Doctor''': There isn't a little boy born who wouldn't tear the world apart to save his mummy. And this little boy can.}}

* [[Low Culture, High Tech]]

* {{spoiler|[[Luke, I Am Your Father]] / [[Luke, You Are My Father|Rory & Amy, You Are My Parents]]}}: {{spoiler|In "A Good Man Goes To War," River tells Amy and Rory that she is their kidnapped child Melody Pond. It's also revealed that this is the little girl from "The Impossible Astronaut" that's been phoning Nixon}}.
