Doctor Who Into the Dalek – darker, meaner, less likely to coin a catchphrase

Somewhere along the line I'd forgotten that we had a new one, so there was a momentary jolt as his affronted owl face popped onto the screen.

When the movie adaptation of the videogame series Need For Speed hit screens earlier in the year, the joke was definitely its running time.
