From the Script: The Doctor Dances

Recently, I was re-reading the script for The Doctor Dances by Steven Moffat (in my copy of The Shooting Scripts), and I cam across a bit of stage direction that I thought might amuse you. So…here you go:
“23 INT. STOREROOM night
- and from the radio comes ‘Moonlight Serenade’. ROSE smiles, THE DOCTOR looks at her curiously.
ROSE (shrugs, a little embarrassed)
Our song.
The Doctor’s face. The tiniest blink, the tiniest flicker; you’d have to be fast to spot it. If you did, you’d think maybe the Doctor doesn’t like this…”
There you go. Now, if only they would come out with the Shooting Scripts for series 2. Sigh.
The Doctor Dances, Steven Moffat, The Shooting Scripts
