The Doctor stepped out of the TARDIS and gestured dramatically around. “Ah, yes,” he said, “Welcome to Perfisage, Sarah-Jane! One of my favourite planets!”
He waved a hand around at the trees and green meadows nearby. “Just look at its beauty!” He bent down and picked a flower from the nearby grassy bank. Inhaling deeply, he sneezed briefly. “You don’t get that aroma from just any planet, eh Sarah-Jane?”
Nobody said anything. “I said, eh Sarah-Jane.”
The Doctor turned round. There was no Sarah-Jane Smith there at all - just an innocent looking TARDIS with a faint air of embarrassment. The Doctor patted her gently. “Don’t worry, old girl - I’m sure it wasn’t your fault and she’s in no trouble whatsoever.”
The far end of the clearing erupted in blaster fire as Sarah-Jane and a young man sprinted in at high speed. Colliding with the Doctor, all three of them fell down behind the grassy bank.
“This is my friend the Doctor,” Sarah said chattily to her companion, “He knows a lot.” She turned to the Doctor, “Hi! This is Andrel, leader of the local resistance to the Polartian occupation troops. Can we help him?”
The Doctor just glared at her.

The Doctor stepped out of the TARDIS and gestured dramatically around. “Ah, yes,” he said, “Welcome to Perfisage, K-9! One of my favourite planets!”
K-9 rolled out of the Tardis, and immediately started analysing. Atmosphere mainly oxygen, gravity earth standard, distance from sun 1.13 solar units, local foliage verdant and frequent….
“It’s time we had ourselves a little break away from that blasted Romana and her ‘little suggestions’ for changes around the TARDIS.” The Doctor frowned momentarily, before breaking out into a wide grin.
“Still! Time to rest and smell the flowers, K-9!”
Obediently, K-9 activated his pollen analysis sub-routine. Four minutes thirty nine seconds later, he concluded his findings, and whirred in thought after discovering the Doctor had strolled off in an unknown direction.
Calculating the Doctor’s instinctive likelihood for unerringly locating any possible trouble, K-9’s processors indicated a southernmost, downhill direction was most highly probable, and set out to rescue his master from whatever danger he was surely in after this interval of time.
There was a sixty-eight percent of his contacting local rebellious inhabitants, a forty percent chance of having tripped over his own scarf and a ninety-seven percent probability of his being under arrest by now….

The Doctor stepped out of the TARDIS and gestured dramatically around. “Ah, yes,” he said, “Welcome to Perfisage, Rose! One of my favourite planets!”
“Look at it! Just look at it, Rose Tyler!” he boomed, almost spinning round the area overjoyed. “For once, just once, you stupid apes have left this planet more or less alone in a delightful way of deciding to co-exist with nature.”
He tugged at his leather jacket, straightening it. Rose was staring about in delight at the blooming flowers, the bushy trees and enjoying the gentle breeze wafting through the branches. “No antiquated notions of cut it all down and turn it into raw materials for the making of whatever quaint idea humanity has come up with now.”
Rose looked at him, and thwapped him gently on the head with the flower she was holding. “You idiot,” she said indulgently, “Can’t you for once just shut up about stupid apes and enjoy the moment?”
She took his hand and tugged. “It’s a beautiful day on a beautiful planet. Let’s go explore.”
The Doctor’s face broke out into a wide smile. “You really are fantastic, Rose Tyler. Lets!”
And together, they ran off into the sunset.

The Doctor stepped out of the TARDIS and gestured dramatically around. “Ah, yes,” he said, “Welcome to Perfisage, Martha! One of my favourite planets!”
Martha followed him out and stared around in delight at the scenery. “Oh, it’s lovely Doctor! So green and pleasant - and those gorgeous flowers!” She picked one, raising it to her nose for a sniff.
“Oh yes, Rose loved it here!” the Doctor said, looking out across the nearby meadows with a wistful smile. “She said it reminded her of growing up near some florist shop that her mother insisted on living over until her allergies kicked in.”
Martha smiled weakly. “You brought Rose here?”
“Oh, I just like coming back to my old haunts every now and then. Refresh the old braincells, blow a few dozen cobwebs off, that sort of thing,” the Doctor said, staring off into the distance. “You know, I swear it was that stream over there that Rose pushed me into. Let’s go!”
Martha slowly strolled after the briskly moving Doctor, rolling her eyes. “Yeah yeah,” she muttered, “After all it’s not like pushing you into a stream is starting to look more and more appealing by the minute, is it?”

The Doctor stepped out of the TARDIS and gestured dramatically around. “Ah, yes,” he said, “Welcome to Perfisage, Donna! One of my favourite planets!”
Donna thumped him.
The Doctor staggered away, clutching at his jaw. “What the hell was that for?” came out a little muffled.
Donna glared at him, hands on her hips. “You take me to a bleeding quarry and expect me to go all doe-eyes over it? You’re insane!”
“This is the most scenic, most pleasant rural idyll I know! Guaranteed to calm the most savage breasts... breast! Beast! Don’t hit me again!”
He stared around at the tall rocky slopes, with one solitary puny looking weed forlornly displayed in the wall. “It’s not as green as I remember it, I’ll give you. Definitely was the same co-ordinates as ever though,” he murmured, puzzled.
Still rubbing his chin, he walked on round the corner. “WHAT?!?!”
Donna sprinted to join him, and found him staring up, mouth agape, at a large sign.

Donna glanced back behind her and blinked. “Um, Doctor? The TARDIS just had five tons of concrete poured on top of it.”
“WHAT?!?! WHAT?!?!?!?”
