Quotes 

• Doctor Who : [standing over the unconscious Mrs. Tyler]  Ah! Do you know what's wrong with her?

  Jack Tyler : Well, no.

  Doctor Who : I do. Make some tea.

  Jack Tyler : Tea?

  Doctor Who : Tea. She does drink tea?

  Jack Tyler : Well, yeah.

  Doctor Who : Off you go. Make some. Use the best china, four cups, lay it out on a tray, off you go. Ah! And some fruit cake.

  Jack Tyler : Anything else?

  Doctor Who : No. I love fruitcake.

  [shouting] 

  Doctor Who : Come on, Mrs. Tyler. This is no way to behave when you've got visitors. We've come for tea!

  Leela : And fruitcake.

  Doctor Who : And fruitca...

  [doubletakes Leela] 

• Martha Tyler : A lot of people consult me. You know I've got the second sight.

  The Doctor : Yes. So you've lived in this cottage all your life, haven't you, Mrs. Tyler?

  Martha Tyler : Why should I tell you owt?

  The Doctor : Well, telepathy and precognition are normal in anyone whose childhood was spent near a time fissure, like the one in the wood.

  Jack Tyler : He's as bad as she is. Here, what's a time fissure?

  The Doctor : It's a weakness in the fabric of space and time. Every haunted place has one, doesn't it? That's why they're haunted. It's a time distortion. This one must be very large. Large enough to have affected the place names round here, like Fetchborough, Fetch. An apparition, hmm?

  Martha Tyler : How do ye know so much?

  The Doctor : [whisperingly]  I read a lot.
