Ceris Jones: Policeman

Quotes 

• Jackie Tyler : [lashing out at Rose]  The hours I've sat here, days and weeks and months, all on my own! I thought you were dead! And where were you *travelling*? What the hell does that mean, "travelling"? That's no sort of answer!

  [to the Policeman] 

  Jackie Tyler : You ask her. She won't tell me. That's all she says: "travelling."

  Rose Tyler : That's what I was doing.

  Jackie Tyler : But your passport's still in the drawer! It's just one lie after another!

  Rose Tyler : I meant to phone. I really did, I just... I forgot.

  Jackie Tyler : What, for a year? You forgot for *a year*? And I am left sitting here. I just don't believe you! Why won't you tell me where you've been?

  The Doctor : Actually, it's my fault. I sort of, uh, employed Rose as my companion.

  Policeman : When you say "companion," is this a sexual relationship?

  Rose Tyler , The Doctor : [they look at each other, and then they simultaneously say]  No!

  Jackie Tyler : [getting in the Doctor's face, rather threateningly]  Then what is it? Because *you*, you waltz in here all charm and smiles, and the next thing I know she vanishes off the face of the earth! How old are you then? 40? 45? What, did you find her on the Internet? Did you go online and pretend you're *a doctor*?

  The Doctor : I *am* a doctor!

  Jackie Tyler : Prove it! Stitch this, mate!

  [slaps him hard across the face. The Doctor groans loudly, and Rose merely rolls her eyes] 

  Jackie Tyler : Did you think about me at all?

  Rose Tyler : I did! All the time! But...

  Jackie Tyler : One phone call. Just to know that you were alive!

  Rose Tyler : I'm sorry. I really am.

  Jackie Tyler : Do you know what terrifies me, is that you still can't say. What happened to you, Rose? What could be so bad that you can't tell me, sweetheart? Where were you?

• Jackie Tyler : The hours I've sat here, days and weeks and months, all on my own! I thought you were dead! And where were you travelling? What the hell does that mean, "travelling"? That's no sort of answer!

  [to the police inspector in the apartment] 

  Jackie Tyler : You ask her. She won't tell me. That's all she says: "traveling".

  Rose Tyler : That's what I was doing.

  Jackie Tyler : But your passport's still in the drawer! It's just one lie after another!

  Rose Tyler : I meant to phone. I really did, I just... I forgot.

  Jackie Tyler : What, for a *year*? You forgot for a year? And I am left sitting here? I just don't believe you! Why won't you tell me where you've *been*?

  The Doctor : Actually, it's my fault. I sort of, uh, employed Rose as my companion.

  Policeman : When you say companion, is this a sexual relationship?

  The Doctor , Rose Tyler : [look at each other, and then say]  No!

  Jackie Tyler : [getting in the Doctor's face]  Then what is it? Because *you*, you waltz in here all charm and smiles, and the next thing I know she vanishes off the face of the earth! How old are you then? 40? 45? What, did you find her on the Internet? Did you go online and pretend you're a doctor?

  The Doctor : I am a doctor!

  Jackie Tyler : Prove it! Stitch this, mate!

  [slaps him very hard across the face] 

  Jackie Tyler : [Later, as Jackie embraces Rose] 

  Jackie Tyler : Did you think about me at all?

  Rose Tyler : I did! All the time! But...

  Jackie Tyler : One phone call. Just to know that you were alive!

  Rose Tyler : I'm sorry. I really am.

  Jackie Tyler : Do you know what terrifies me, is that you still can't say. What happened to you, Rose? What could be so bad that you can't tell me, sweetheart? Where were you?
