Jacqueline Hill: Barbara Wright

Quotes 

• Dr. Who : Well, if you're going, be off with you!

  Ian Chesterton : Look Doctor, I think it'd be better if you came with us, at least to explore.

  Dr. Who : It's out of the question. I refuse to leave the ship!

  Ian Chesterton : Maybe you have succeeded. Maybe we are where you say we are. But, I remember an occasion, when you took us home once before.

  Barbara Wright : [laughing]  Yes, and we met Marco Polo!

  Dr. Who : Entirely different circumstances! I'm rather tired of your insinuations that I am not master of this craft. Oh, I admit, it did develop a fault, - a minor fault on one occasion, perhaps twice. But, nothing I couldn't control.

  Ian Chesterton : I know that. Of course you're in control. You're always in control. And I'm sure you could revisit us at any time.

  Dr. Who : Very simple. Quite simple!

  Ian Chesterton : Exactly, quite simple. But you have your important researches to complete. You may not find the time. There's a chance that we won't meet again. Don't you think it would be better if we parted under more friendly circumstances, say, over a drink?

• Ian Chesterton : Now, wait a minute. The Doctor's put us down, right in the middle of the French Revolution.

  Barbara Wright : Yes, the Reign Of Terror.

• Barbara Wright : You know, I'm certain that we're some time in the past.

  Ian Chesterton : Yes. Well, we were a hundred miles out, perhaps we're a hundred years out as well.

  Dr. Who : Oh, rubbish! Rubbish!

  Barbara Wright : Well, it's possible.

• Barbara Wright : Well, we're still not home.

  Ian Chesterton : No, we're not are we? Still I do think he tried this time, even if it was out of bad temper.

  Barbara Wright : So we stay with the ship?

  Ian Chesterton : Yes. It cheered Susan up, hasn't it?

  Barbara Wright : Well, are you disappointed?

  Ian Chesterton : Hmm... Funnily enough, no. I don't know. Depends where we are. I still could be.
