10 Dumb Doctor Who Moments You Can't Help But Love

10. "CHOCOLAAAATE!" (The Vanquishers)

Doctor Who: Flux - the thirteenth series of the revival - got mixed reviews following its less-than-stellar final episode, The Vanquishers.

The Doctor splits herself into three different copies, presumably to keep up with the utterly absurd number of side characters in this story.

One version teams up with Dan and Yaz to take down the Sontarans, who have claimed Earth as their own. When confronting one of the potato men, the trio make a rather odd discovery about the species - they love a bit of chocolate.

During an inspection of a corner shop, one Sontaran leader gorges himself on the sweet stuff until the good guys catch him. They offer to give them the recipe for chocolate in exchange for access to the Sontarans' psychic command centre.

It's utterly absurd to see a member of the universe's mightiest warrior race so easily controlled by a snack. It's also disgusting - the way that Sontaran's tongue moves will haunt your nightmares forever.

Still, you know what... it's actually kinda funny. Certainly one of the most memorable things about this episode!
