I now desperately want to see this on screen. Me too. Fortunately it's fairly vivid in my head already.
Is so *them* I can only flail! :) Is it? That's good to hear. I debated for awhile if the Doctor would say that, but of course he'd be more relaxed about such things if he'd been married for 20+ years.
I'm pretty sure it's 'if the worst came to the worst'. I spent about twenty minutes trying every possible variation of that idiom, to the point where nothing sounded right. Naturally everybody slurs it, it being a set phrase and all, which means our hero would slur it twice as badly, but you can't fall back on that crutch in writing. After a bit of sleep and a bit of research, I think I'm going with "if worse came to worst," unless that sounds particularly un-British?
Oh and I love you forever for sneaking in a reference to K-9! :) Then let's pretend I did it just for you.
