** A common variation in the new series: the Doctor and his friends flash psychic paper, which causes the reader to see any falsified documents imaginable, around as credentials. It doesn't always work as intended, though; those that are too smart for it will wonder why they've been handed a blank piece of paper, and if the user lets their mind wander, it might instead read something else entirely. Jack's introduction had him hand Rose a sheet of psychic paper reading [[TerriblePickUpLines "I'm single and I work out"]] instead of his military credentials.

Jack's introduction had him hand Rose a sheet of psychic paper reading [[TerriblePickUpLines "I'm single and I work out"]] instead of his military credentials. It can also end up showing something other than what the user intended, if there's something far more pertinent it could display, as seen in ''The Power of the Doctor'': when Graham tries to pass himself off as a "volcano inspector", the paper instead tells Ace that he's a friend of the Doctor.

* Creator/TheChaser's infamous APEC prank involved them showing passes that: declared them to be from the "Chaser's War"; declared their role as "Insecurity", twice; had the word "joke" next to their photos; and in one spot read "It's pretty obvious this isn't a real pass". Somehow, however, they got all the way to the doors!

Sissy pins a badge to her coat and angrily demands to be let in. The frightened mother let's her in, assuming that she's from immigration, but because she's illiterate, she doesn't realize that the badge actually reads "Chicken Inspector".
