Unexpected pop culture reference

[hmpf]

The 3rd Doctor, to someone who's disappointed by his mode of transport: "What did you expect, some kind of space rocket with Batman at the controls?" (Inferno, 1970)

(Please tell me I didn't mishear that. I so want the Doctor to have made a Batman reference.)
