Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • In Prisoner of the Judoon Part 1, a Judoon has requisitioned a police car and has stopped at traffic lights. A convertible with music blazing pulls up:

The Judoon draws a gun and the man turns down the music.
Judoon: Have nice day.

  • From Invasion of the Bane, when Sarah Jane uses Mr. Smith to contact the villainous Mrs. Wormwood having just survived an attack by one of her Mooks:

Mrs Wormwood: My pleasure, the next one will involve harpoons.

    • The scene where Maria and Luke are escaping from the factory:

Mrs. Wormwood: Have you checked in [the ladies room]?

Mrs. Wormwood: Oh, you idiot...

  • Sarah Jane nearly zapping herself with the lipstick laser at the start of "The Wedding of Sarah Jane".

"I have to stop doing that..."

    • For a really poignant episode, it was full of funny bits.
      • Clyde and Rani chasing after an alien slug that sounds like it escaped from the planet Looney Tunes, all while trying to keep it out of sight from Sarah Jane's beau.

      • The Doctor explains that the Trickster is "one of the Pantheon of Discord." Clyde notes that it's "a good name for a band". The Doctor agrees.

  • In Secrets of the Stars, the newsreader describing a scene in the White House:

"And we've just had that story confirmed: The President has walked out of the White House and is apparently holding hands with the wife of the Prime Minister of Kazakhstan."

    • Also at the end when Luke checks to see if Clyde is still hypnotized. "Up. Down. Up. Down."

Clyde: (louder) Night, Luke!

  • Enemy of the Bane, Kaagh suggests they name the "new galactic eon" "Wormwood and Kaagh".

    • Also from the same episode:

Mrs.Wormwood: The battle of the costume jewelry counter - how very female.

  • Mona Lisa's Revenge:

"You... art tart!"

  • The scene in Enemy of the Bane where Mrs.Wormwood it sweet-talking Luke into coming to the dark side, saying things like "We can rule the universe together." At first Luke doesn't believe her, but gradually his face turns into an expression of wonder and awe. Mrs.Wormwood concludes her speech, giving him the last "you shall be a prince" bit and shows him the scroll. He takes it and looks into her eyes in amazement...and then runs like hell. With the scroll. Nice going, Mrs.Wormwood.
  • In The Nightmare Man:
