Lingo

[leitzankatan]

A place to determine some of the words used in Inspector Spacetime

[leitzankatan]

is there an equivalent to "dancing"? because afterall it's still a kids show

[thepreciousthing]

Someone suggested that "Always room for one more" should be the DARSIT's equivalent to "Bigger on the Inside". It's not bigger, but there IS always room xD

[scancase]

"Ticky, Tocky,...

i can't think what the other two should be.

Circuit-Chaps ought to say, "Update the obsolete!"
Or something like that.

[georgiathekiwi]

I believe the Tenth Inspector cries, "Arriba!"

And we have lingo like 'associates', 'Metamorphosis'.

Yeah, and they can just chant "obsolete" when they're being creepy.

Are we set on "Circuit-Chaps" for the IS!Cyberman name?

[iaminspectorspacetime]

alliterator posted a list of some of the Expy names we have so far over on TV Tropes.

Villains:
Blogons = The Daleks (of course)
The Sargeant = The Master (with Henry Anglo = Harry Saxon)
Space Masters = Time Lords
Snarling Lions = Weeping Angels
However, it looks like we have two three names for the Cybermen: the Cymbals, the Circuit-Chaps and the Metalguys

Companions / Associates:
Angelica "Angie" Lake = Amy Pond
Rory Williams = Rory Williams (I love this one!)
Mona Virtue = Donna Noble
Yorke = (apparently he's an IS original)
Joanna Martin = Martha Jones
Captain James Haggard = Captain Jack Harkness
Minnie Smythe = Mickey Smith (genderbend)
Lily Taylor = Rose Tyler
Mary Sue Brown = Sarah Jane Smith
FE-Line = K-9

Would it be wrong to raise the question of the Inspector's favourite tool? I've seen a number of things pop up: Laser Wrench, Sonic Crowbar etc.

Is there a canon choice implement? Or does he carry a diverse kit?

[ailelie]

Sonic crowbar, I believe.

Okay. Now I have seen T.H.I.N.G. and T.E.A.M. and now C.I.D. on the other IS wiki.

Not to mention the Peacemist debate.

What are the expies for U.N.I.T. and Torchwood?

Sonic Crowbar. It opens doors but it only works on wood, glass and sometimes plastic. It doesn't do metal.

It's also good for hitting people with.

Hi all!
So does the 11th Inspector still describe things as "cool" or does he have another word?
I think neat, nifty, spiffy, swell, keen, or dandy are some other interesting prospects. Anyone have better ideas?

Also, Is "Topsy-turvy spacey-tacey" canon?

I think "neat" is what people are going with so far for 11, but you could always try to popularize other ones for the 10th and 9th Inspectors.

I like Topsy-Turvy-spacey-wacey a looootttt better than the other suggestions I've been hearing for that. XD

The laser wrench was used in one of the movies. Some fans mistakenly think its cooler or makes more sense.

The laser wrench can be in the two movies with Christopher Lee, although in the audio books he uses the crowbar. The 1992 movie also has a crowbar.
