The Doctor's regeneration is inter-cut with the legally required cheerful morgue attendant, who is watching John Whale's Frankenstein for the express purpose of the appearance of the line "It's alive!" to comment on the Doctor's resurrection.

 Ninth Doctor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Unlike the Fourth Doctor, who considered humans his favourite species, the Ninth was known to refer to humans as "stupid apes" and showed less patience with them than in the past, at times seeming unimpressed by their mental and observational qualities, yet at the same time wanting to protect them and other species.

The Ninth Doctor tended to be far more colloquial in his language than previous Doctors, in particular in his use of slang as well as light curse words such as "hell" which were never uttered on screen by previous Doctors, although the Third Doctor did occasionally use the phrase "damn fool".
