Doctor Who - Series 3 Trivia Questions

1. "Smith and Jones" - What is Martha's profession?

From Quiz
"Doctor Who" - Series 3

Answer: Medical student

Heading to work at the Royal Hope Hospital, Martha Jones goes about her time as a medical student shortly before the hospital is uprooted from its foundations and sent to the surface of the moon. The Doctor, of course, has been investigating, but was never aware of the planned shift in space; it was organized by the Judoon, who separated the building from London due to the lack of jurisdiction they had in bringing an alien criminal to justice. Fortunately, The Doctor and Martha are able to solve the mystery and identify the culprit, a Plasmavore masquerading as an old woman, before she can set off a super-charged MRI machine, destroy half the Earth, and escape in the Judoon ships. Following this adventure, the Doctor decides to take Martha onto the TARDIS as a thank you.

When she arrives at the hospital where she is a medical student, she is led to his hospital bed to examine him.

Answer: The Macra

Taking Martha on another trip, this time into the distant future, the Doctor ends up bringing her to one of the places he brought Rose, New New York on New Earth. When he arrives this time, however, it's in the slums, and Martha is promptly whisked away by two people who plan to bring her with them into the carpool 'Fast Lane' of the New New York Motorway, one which has trapped drivers for decades without letting them out. When the Doctor follows he discovers that feral, enlarged Macra, crab-like creatures, devour people in their vehicles at the bottom of the Motorway, and the only way he can inevitably save Martha (and the rest of New New York) is with the help of the Face of Boe, who's dying up in the now-empty senate on the surface. Fortunately, the Doctor and the Face of Boe are able to do so, though at the cost of the latter's life. Following this, Martha is able to get the Doctor to open up a bit about his past.
