A Sky Ray was a type of frozen lolly. The Tenth Doctor once bought Rose Tyler a Sky Ray. She found it disgusting but tried unconvincingly to eat it happily, for his sake. He, meanwhile, enjoyed his, staining his tongue orange. (PROSE: No One Died)
Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
Writer Nick Briggs includes a passage where Rose notices that the Doctor's tongue is slightly stuck to the ice, prompting the Doctor to say, "I'm a bit out of practice with Sky Rays." This is a sly reference to the Sky Ray promotion of the late 1960s involving the Second Doctor. As promoted by the advertisement, the price of a Sky Ray was sixpence. This promotion also featured a small scene featuring Gerry Grant as the Second Doctor opposite the Daleks. This scene was both in black/white and in colour.
