NEXT STOP EVERYWHERE 279: "Voyage of the Damned" Is Up!

 
"Hang on a minute! Who put you in charge? And who the hell are you anyway?"
"I’m the Doctor. I’m a Time Lord. I’m from the planet Gallifrey in the constellation of Kasterborous. I’m 903 years old, and I’m the man that’s going to save your lives and all six billion people on the planet below. You got a problem with that?"
"...No."
"In that case, allons-y!"
-- The Tenth Doctor and Rickston Slade, Doctor Who: "Voyage of the Damned"
