Now, his primary {{Berserk Button}}s tend to be ''"don't threaten my Companions"'' (which has often extended to the ''families'' of those Companions) and ''"don't threaten kids."'' Congratulations, Landlord. You just managed to press both of those on a guy that makes Daleks run in terror, and in one of the more GoodIsNotNice incarnations to boot.

* The Doctor bristling a bit at Bill calling him her grandfather - first, he has a very poor concept of how he appears to humans. Secondly, there's probably some very uncomfortable memories attached to that title because of Susan.
** On the other side, the Doctor is irritated by the implication he looks old enough to be Bill's grandfather instead of father, but he's probably missing the fact he is not only white, but almost ashenly white, which might make that cover story fall apart a little.
** It's certainly a mix of both.

** Or because the previous tenants' LiquidAssets had been completely drained -- that's why the Landlord was looking for another six in the first place.

** It's certainly a mix of both, and the Doctor not realising how different he looks makes sense too as he's a Time Lord and regeneration likely means family members looking different is more common to them.
