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. These cue cards were more than likely written by Clara Oswald. (TV: Under the Lake)
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 known 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."
Behind the Scenes
The Aberdeen cue card is a reference to TV: School Reunion, in which Sarah Jane Smith was revealed to have mistakenly been dropped off there (instead of in Croydon) by the Fourth Doctor.
