10 Most Quotable British TV Shows
6. Doctor Who
This should be of no surprise due to the fact that Doctor Who is easily one of the BBC's longest running and most significant television shows they have ever produced. Doctor Who is one of the most respected Sci-Fi medias in modern pop-culture and will likely continue to hold that position for many more decades.
There are honestly a whole range of memorable quotes from the show and while you'd be forgiven for thinking that many of these likely originated from the modern era of the show, some of the quotes originate from the classic run. The Daleks' 'exterminate!' is perhaps the most recognisable phrase, coming from the second ever Doctor Who series. Even the whole "It's bigger on the inside!" originates from the the classic series.
But the modern era is home to some of the best quotes. Just you try and walk through a garden centre and not tell your sibling that they can't even blink as you walk past the creepy looking statues. It also seems a trend for the modern era for each Doctor to have their own catchphrase, starting with Christopher Eccleston's constant use of 'fantastic!'.
