THE DOCTOR
Simple, isn't it? Just like most killings.
(I will forever regret that the Brigadier did not choose that moment to point out that in his experience, it's pretty much never that bloody simple. Although he does punch the Doctor out in reply—or, the fight choreography on the '80s show being what it was, is mysteriously able to knock him unconscious by giving him what appears to be a karate chop to the chest—so I suppose that could be taken as a different wording of the same reply. :)
