Apology cue cards
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
The Twelfth Doctor used apology cue cards to get himself out of tight situations. (TV: Under the Lake) These cue cards were more than likely written by Clara Oswald.
Examples for the Apology cue cards
"I completely understand why it was difficult not to get captured."
"I didn't mean to imply that I don't care."
"It was my fault, I should have know you didn't live in Aberdeen."
"No one is going to be eaten / vapourised / exterminated / upgraded / possessed / mortally wounded / turned to jelly. We'll all get out of this unharmed."
