"I won the holiday," said Evelyn. "I can't very well refuse, can I?"

"Arthuranimus Major," the Doctor said, in the tone of voice that suggested he was absolutely not sulking or complaining, "is the most boring planet in the entire universe."

"Sounds ideal, doesn't it?"

"Utterly dull," the Doctor muttered, and scooped up her bag.

He opened the TARDIS doors to reveal a beach - calm, placid, sunny.

And then, from somewhere on the horizon, a massive explosion, combined with a cry that sounded very much like: "Oh, won't some wandering traveller rescue us?"

The Doctor cast Evelyn a pleading look. "It'll be nice," he said. "Just like lying on a beach for two weeks."

"Ah. And how is saving a planet like lying on a beach for two weeks?"

"Good for the soul." Grinning, he offered her his arm, she accepted, and together they strolled, laughing, into the sunlight.

LOL! Typical Doctor - no matter which incarnation, he'd sooner be mucking about in a dangerous situation than relaxing!
