In which the Master is sane and drum free and has some hard truths about their lives for the Doctor after Journey’s End. 

Also set in plot (but fine as standalone’s):

Bedtime Story - Adult - Ten/Simmy - In which the Master wants a post-coital discussion and the Doctor untactfully blows off and has to do damage control. 

Better Than Shakespeare - Adult - Ten/Simmy - In which there’s a wager on whether the Doctor or Shakespeare has a better tongue. 

John Simm as Caligula

I just found the programme for the production of Hamlet I saw a couple of years ago, starring John Simm and thought I’d share some of the rehearsal photos it had in it :)

“Your resurrection went wrong. That energy… your body’s ripped open.  Now you’re killing yourself.”

“And that’s human Christmas, up there. They eat so much.”

Doctor Who rewatch: Utopia, 3.11

I know these two have many, but this is one of the greatest contenders for, if not The Most Gloriously Homoerotic Scene In Doctor Who Ever. Especially since the Master manages to break his heart and make him his bitch without even touching him.
