'''Cathy''': ''"TBIM?"''<br />
'''Kathy''': ''"Too Bad It's Monday."'' }}
* One of the speech in ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' that the Eleventh Doctor gives names several days as not very interesting. It also reveals he really like Saturdays, [[Leaning Onon the Fourth Wall|perhaps because]] a certain British sci-fi show airs on that day?
{{quote| '''The Doctor:''' Time isn't a straight line. It's all... [[Timey-Wimey Ball|bumpy-wumpy]]. There's loads of boring stuff. Like Sundays and Tuesdays and Thursday afternoons. But now and then there are Saturdays. Big temporal tipping points when anything's impossible. }}
