  • Donna and the doctor being absolute bros for 8 minutes straight.
    These two are my favourites and I will protect their friendship till the end of time.
    Some of my favourite bits are missing because the BBC hates happiness, so just pretend Harvey Wallbanger and Great Big Outer Space Dunce are in there.

    Between all of 10th's companions, Donna was the only one to not be romantic attracted to him but, ironically, still is the one who had more chemistry. David Tennant and Catherine Tate together in action should happen more times.

      She really was, after having two companions who pined over him it was great to have one to be his, as he puts it best friend, though I always saw them as siblings. Donna would always speak up and always called the Doctor out when she disagreed with something he did, or would tell him to "stop going all space man " lol To me Donna will always be the best companion of Who and I'm still upset with how her time ended being forced to forget. Even her grandfather Wilf was a great companion, it was so heartbreaking when the Doctor told him Donna would have to forget all the adventures she had been on.

She introduced me to doctor who and she’s my favorite, also I’d say the romantic feelings between rose and 10 were much more genuine than with 10 and Maratha. I found Maratha a bit cringey cuz it was obvious they would never happen

      Rose did tell the Doctor when he was acting like a jerk. More so with the 9th Doctor than with 10. But 10 got intense after Rose got stuck in the other dimension and he needed someone to stop him from going too far.

And man, that hurts.

    It killed me when Donna had to go. It STILL kills me years later. I just loved their relationship. For a short while I had convinced myself that they'd have made a splendid couple, & a part of me still thinks that, but then I realized that their relationship was perfect as it was. Either way, I think of them as the very image of platonic soulmates.

    One aspect of Donna I truly loved was how she never hesitated to either make her opinion known or call out the Doctor whenever she felt that she needed to. Rose and Martha were a bit too besotted with him to do that, although Martha was slightly better in that regard.

    it was very clever of them to give her so few "serious" scenes up until the end. her banter with the doctor became so sort of normalized and expected, that tearing her away from him hurt far more than if they had given her a bunch of romantic scenes with him. Sometimes its harder to lose a mate whos just sort of always been there but you took for granted, than an intense romantic partner.

    Ten and Donna were by far the best duo on Who. It's a shame they shoved Freema into so many of Donna's episodes instead of letting Catherine shine with David on her own and even more heartbreaking that they gave Donna the ending that they did. She should have been with him at the very end and she never should have had her memories of him erased and been returned to mediocrity. It was such a shitty end for such an amazing character.

      I completely agree: I didn't like when Freema and Rose (and others from the past) were brought back during Donna's episodes. She and the Doctor didn't need ANYONE else; they were perfect together, always, and in every way. As for Donna's ending, it was one of the most heartbreaking things I had EVER seen on TV or in film. Still makes me all teary every time I see it. If Ten and Donna had been given one more season together, I truly believe their relationship would have developed from best friends to something MUCH more. The chemistry between them was palpable; they belonged together.
