Quotes
====================================
"If I didn't know better, Castellan, I'd swear it was a Type Forty. But that's impossible. There are no Type Forties in service. They're out of commission, obsolete." ~ Hildred
"Well done, Hildred. An antiquated capsule, for which you get adequate early warning, tranducts on the very perimeter of the Capitol. You are informed that the occupant is a known criminal, whereupon you allow him to escape and conceal himself in a building a mere fifty three stories high. A clever stratagem, Hildred. You're trying to confuse him, I take it?" ~ Castellan Spandrell
"What? Well, that's monstrous. Vaporization without representation is against the constitution." ~ The Fourth Doctor
"It cannot be avoided. Like it or not, Gallifrey is involved, and I'm afraid things will never be quite the same again." ~ The Fourth Doctor
"We have him now, but be wary. The Doctor is never more dangerous than when the odds are against him." ~ The Master
"No answer to a straight question. Typical politician." ~ The Fourth Doctor
"If heroes don't exist, it is necessary to invent them. Good for public morale." ~ Cardinal Borusa
"Only in mathematics will we find truth." ~ The Fourth Doctor

Trivia
====================================
This is the first TV story to feature the Doctor without a companion and the only one during the 1963-89 original series. The 1996 telefilm and revival series would feature the Doctor on occasion collaborating with "one-off" companions (such as Donna Noble in The Runaway Bride) and in Midnight the Doctor has an adventure by himself, away from his companion. All that said, The Deadly Assassin remains unique as the only televised Doctor Who adventure to date in which the Doctor appears but there is no companion or companion-surrogate at all.
