I would recommend finding out who wrote the episode and embedding the character while citing the author as you normally would in-text.
For example:

The Eleventh Doctor once said, "We are all stories in the end" (Moffat, 2010).

This is APA, but it could work with any citation style/format.
For more formal work, you might include the season and episode numbers or episode title as well.

In "The Big Bang," season 5, episode 13, the Eleventh Doctor said, "We are all stories in the end" (Moffat, 2010).
