I never became a huge fan of Dr Who. But one of the few episodes I ever saw contained a fantastic exchange: A woman enters the TARDIS (a phonebooth, really) and finds that is contains room after room, an endless interior structure. She gasps.
Doctor Who: I imagine you're surprised. You see, the TARDIS is dimensionally transcendental.
Woman: And it's bigger on the inside than it is on the outside!!
Doctor Who: That's what I said.
Somehow that really struck me. I love dry British wit.

Time And Relative Dimension In Space = TARDIS. It is a brilliant idea. The TARDIS the Doctor operates has a stuck cloaking/mimic device. That is why it always a phone booth.
