I was looking on the Doctor Who website recently, and I found something totally awesome. It is a game called Doctor in the House.

How to play: Slip  quotations  from  Doctor  Who  into  everyday  conversations  and  you  score  points  if  no-­ one  notices  what  you’re  doing!  You  could  be  in  the  school  yard  or  in  a  meeting,  talking  to   the  President  or  your  friends,  just  smuggle  those  lines  into  a  chat  and  you  get  the  points! You  can  set  yourself  a  target  score-­line  and  play  ‘Doctor  in  the  House’  for  a  bit  of festive  fun  on  your  own.  Or  you  can  challenge  your  mates,  compare  scores  amongst yourselves.

How You Score: Every  time  you  quote  the  Doctor  (from  the  Doctor  in  the  House  list)  you  score  some points.  The  harder  the  quotation,  the  more  points  you  get!
If  someone  so  much  as  raises  an  eyebrow  or  asks  ‘What  are  you  on  about?’,  you  do  not get  the  points.  Bah  humbug,  but  that’s  the  rule!  Your  challenge  is  to  sneakily  use  as many  Doctor  in  the  House  lines  as  you  can  without  anyone  realizing  what  you’re  doing.
And  if  you  hear  someone  trying  to  use  one  of  the  lines  you  can  get  a  bonus  ten  points  by shouting,  ‘Doctor  in  the  house!’

Rules: You  cannot  score  points  from  the  same  line  twice  in  the  same  game.
You  must  say  the  lines  loud  and  clear!  No  muttering  under  your  breath.
You  can  devise  your  own  variations  of  the  game  like  Pond’s  Ponderings  using    Amy’s
quips  and  quotations,  lines  from  Christmas  specials  or  use  the  words  from  any  of  the
Doctor’s  friends  and  foes.
