“Make it go, helmsman.” 👉
I’d like quote one of Morn’s more inspirational sayings, but that might be a bit too longwinded. “Punch it” would do, I suppose.

Shamelessly steal one of Kirk’s best lines in “The City on the Edge of Forever”.

one that might play better in northern england for me - an ironic “let’s 'av it”. not the full on “LET’S 'AV ITTTTTTTTTTT woo” just a dead pan 'right, let’s ‘av it, eh?’
“bark! bark! bark!”
