The Montgolfier brothers were French brothers who invented a kind of hot air balloon. When the Eighth Doctor brought Christian and Madeline de Roche into his TARDIS, he claimed it was a hot air balloon made from a design by the Montgolfier brothers. Madame De Roche was excited by the revelation because the Montgolfiers were French like herself. (AUDIO: Other Lives)
