Quotes
====================================
"Doctor can't help. Can't you, can't you feel it, Trish?  Boys, get indoors! Get inside! Get them inside! It's happening again!" ~ Maeve

"I had a passing fancy, only it didn't pass. It stopped." ~ The Tenth Doctor

"Did you ever have one of those little cakes with the crunchy ball bearings on top? Do you know those things? Nobody else in this entire galaxy's ever even bothered to make edible ball bearings. Genius." ~ The Tenth Doctor

"Look at the hairs on the back of my manly hairy hand." ~ The Tenth Doctor

"I'm not really a cat person. Once you've been threatened by one in a nun's wimple, it kind of takes the joy out of it." ~ The Tenth Doctor

"Whoa! Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo. Ion residue. Blimey! That takes some doing. Just to snatch a living organism out of space-time. This baby is just like, I'm having some of that. I'm impressed.  It can harness huge reserves of ionic power. We need to find the source of that power. Find the source and you will find whatever has taken to stealing children and fluffy animals. See what you can see. Keep them peeled, Lewis." ~ The Tenth Doctor

"That is so dinky! The go anywhere creature. Fits in your pocket, makes friends, impresses the boss, breaks the ice at parties." ~ The Tenth Doctor

"They don't stop moaning.  I try to help them, but they don't stop moaning. We can be together. Don't touch me, mum." ~ Chloe Webber

"Your dad? But he's long gone. Chloe, with all the lovely things in the world, why him? I thought we were putting him behind us. What's the matter with you?" ~ Trish Webber

"Well, he's got a very loud voice for a dead bloke." ~ Rose Tyler

"If living things can become drawings then maybe drawings can become living things." ~ The Tenth Doctor

"Chloe's real dad is dead, but not the one who visits her in her nightmares. That dad seems very real. That's the dad she's drawn and he's a heartbeat away from crashing into this world." ~ The Tenth Doctor

Rose: Easy for you to say. You don't have kids.
The Doctor: I was a dad once.
Rose: What did you say?

"You need a lot of things you need to get a cross the Universe. Warp drive, wormhole refactors...you know the thing you need most of all? You need a hand to hold." ~ The Tenth Doctor

"No! You, stop! You just took a council axe from a council van and now you're digging up a council road! I'm reporting you to the council!" ~ Kel

"I cannot stress this enough. Ballbearings you can eat—masterpiece!" ~ The Tenth Doctor

"Never say never ever." ~ The Tenth Doctor

"There's something in the air. Something coming. A storm's approaching." ~ The Tenth Doctor

Trivia
====================================
In 2009, Doctor Who Magazine conducted a reader poll to rank the first 200 Doctor Who stories in order of preference. Fear Her ranked 192nd out of 200, earning it the dubious distinction of being the lowest-ranked story of the 2005-present revival.

The Tenth Doctor's involvement in the 2012 Olympics has sparked a petition from thousands of fans all over the world wishing David Tennant to carry the Olympic Torch. Matt Smith actually carried the real Olympic Torch in Cardiff on the early morning of the 26th May 2012, so against what people believed, the Doctor genuinely did carry the Olympic torch!

The revived Doctor Who series was to feature a script by Stephen Fry, set in the 1920s. Rumours appeared on the BBC's websites shortly after the airing of the new Series 1 and the story was pencilled in as the eleventh episode of Series 2. According to a video diary entry by David Tennant, Fry attended the very first cast read-through for Series 2, indicating that his script was still under consideration at that point. Due to budgetary constraints, the episode was moved to Series 3 and replaced by Fear Her. The story was subsequently abandoned, as Fry did not have spare time for the rewriting necessary to replace Rose with Martha. Fry said, "They asked me to do a series and I tried, but I just ran out of time, and so I wrote a pathetic letter of "I'm sorry I can't do this" to Davies."

This is the first televised Doctor Who story to deal with actual child abuse.

The Doctor mentions (to Rose's surprise) that he "was a dad once." This has been implied numerous times by his status as grandfather to Susan Foreman.

The writer, Matthew Graham, noted on the DVD commentary that the scribble creature was never to be called a "scribble monster", as the Doctor would never call anything a monster.
