S10 E3: Thin ice

Bill: Can't you steer this time?

The Doctor: I told you, you don't steer the TARDIS, you reason with it.

Bill: How?

The Doctor: Unsuccessfully, most of the time. She's a bad girl, this one. Always looking for trouble.

S6 E4: The Doctor's Wife

The Doctor: You didn't always take me where I wanted to go.

Idris/TARDIS: No, but I always took you where you needed to go.

@HollyGoDarkly So, just a thought...Did #DoctorWho S12's massive reveal that the Doctor had more lives make #TheDoctorsWife non-canon? If the Doctor had more lives before Hartnell AND still had the same TARDIS, then is this conversation true?

Idris: Do you ever wonder why I chose you all those years ago?
The Doctor: I chose you. You were unlocked.
Idris: Of course I was. I wanted to see the Universe so I stole a Time Lord & I ran away. And you were the only one mad enough.

When Idris says "This body has about 18 minutes left to live" and there's 18 minutes left in the episode...that's the kind of attention to absurd details that I adore. #DoctorWho #TheDoctorsWife

I never forget how amazing this episode is but sometimes the magic and cleverness of the script still surprise me.

As always, hats off to Mr @neilhimself for blessing us with this. #DoctorWho #TheDoctorsWife
