The Story of Donna Noble (...So Far) | 60th Anniversary | Doctor Who

- Donna Noble - the most important woman in the whole wide universe... but she doesn't remember.
A mega-recap of the life and tragedy of Donna Noble and her adventures with The Doctor.
Donna Noble was the girl who somehow managed to miss everything except what was happening in Donna-world. After the Doctor showed her that the universe was bigger and richer than she’d ever realised, she became his eager traveling companion. Together they met Agatha Christie, battled Sontarans and Vashta Nerada and visited fabulous far-off planets. But when Donna inadvertently embodied a Time Lord-human meta-crisis, becoming the DoctorDonna, and The Doctor was forced to wipe her memories of all their adventures. She eventually found happiness again and married Shaun Temple... but is this all destiny has in store for her?
Donna Noble will return in the 60th Anniversary of #DoctorWho, coming November 2023.

Donna is the best companion because her and the doctor were equals. She wasn’t begging for his love or respect; they worked TOGETHER.
💯
Agreed. The moment where she helped him pull the lever that would condemn Pompeii so he didn't have to carry the guilt alone was the moment she became more than any of the other companions ever were.
Their combo reminds me most of the older teams like Jamie, Vicky, Sarah Jane , and Ace.
Yes, this was the same reason I loved these two together. Donna needed a change in her life and the Doctor needed someone after what happened with Rose & Martha

Donna's story breaks my heart. When River finds out who she is... her reaction... just, oh god.
Donna Noble & River Song are my 2 favorite characters of the 10th Doctor's era.
River Song, along with Amy & Rory Pond are the best of the 11th Doctor's time in the TARDIS. Though Madame Vastra & crew are amazing, too!
And I know that Clara Oswald is controversial to some Whovians, but she really did bring out the very best in the 12th Doctor.
But I can't wait to see Donna Noble back in action with the 14th Doctor! I wonder what will be different about this incarnation? Same face, same voice, but not necessarily the same exact Doctor! 💙
@@LaraLinx The Clara feelings hour was hot garbage. She bullied the show to make her more important than the Doctor himself, and then forced him to sit down and become background. Nothing made me happier than the day they got rid of her...
and the next day introduced lesbian lumpy potato face with the pasted on eyebrows... and I pretty much stopped watching completely. Caught a few episodes of Jodie, just didnt do it for me. She just didnt have that presence onscreen that people like Tenant and Smith did, and by that point the writing had become just abysmal anyways. No.. this reboot was desperately needed to save the show, and nobody is going to bully the one in charge now.
@@Nazgull2k1 I think it was a mistake to have Jodi Whitaker use her native accent. BUT I went back and watched her last season (the Flux series) and I really did start to get Doctor vibes from her.
If you want any chance of understanding the future Doctors, it's important to at least read about The Timeless Child. Totally blows open the origination of the Time Lords and establishes the Doctor is far older than we ever knew.
I agree that the reboot was needed. So far the 60th Anniversary specials have not disappointed!
I swear if she dies or if anything bad happens to her in the 60th episodes. I will riot. I have not waited over a year for her to return for that to be the outcome
Sames lol. She best get a nice storyline
I have a feeling that things start off with Donna having dreams of a giant wasp.
Waits over a decade*
U bean pods and ya anarchy
😑
12:15 “YOU TOLD ME I WAS SPECIAL, BUT ITS THIS THING, IM JUST A HOST”
This line is so heartbreaking. All her life Donna’s been told again and again that she’s nothing (even by the doctor when they first met!) to the point of genuinely believing it. The minute someone says otherwise she latches on so hard.
She’s truly the best companion and the most human character of all. Just the fact that she would willingly give up her life knowing there’s a better world that she’s not going to live to see is something I think no other character would do. I can’t wait to see what they do with her in the 60th, way more excited about her than Tennant
This is a big reason why she is my favorite character of all time
Catherine Tate proves that a good comedian can do drama. The serious emotions she could emote, eg "Doctor, you can stop now"
This. So much this. A lot of people remembered her for "Am I bovvered?" but I still have her "just save someone!" from Fires of Pompeii in mind and it's heartbreaking and brilliant
I remember French and Saunders did a skit about how comedy actors can easily do drama but drama actors cant do comedy - I think it had Helen Mirren in it if I recall. 🤔🤔 Was very funny and probably based somewhere in truth.
@@hotdog1214honestly as an amateur actress I can kind of agree. In my experience I always had an easy time for silly witty acting that didn’t take itself too seriously, but I found that once I had mastered (somewhat, I’m far from professional lol) comedy, it was surprisingly easy to translate that into somber drama. I found that most of the same techniques could make me devastated or psychotic or relieved or any other serious emotion. It’s fascinating to think there might be some actual psychological phenomena behind that, isn’t it?
She’s a much better actor than comedian imo. Or at least, I never cared for her comedy show. She can do comedic acting brilliantly of course.
It's weird to hear people say that she can act... I would hope so. She was an actress before she was a comedian. She trained at drama school 😅
Donna is hands down (aside from River) the best companion of the Doctor, she had the best arc, the best character writing, as well as the most heart breaking ending (so far). I hope that her mother is at least a bit nicer.
Hard agree! I have River's diary and sonic tattooed on my forearm, with forget-me-nots for Donna. I carry them with me everywhere.
I mean their storylines are similar of time pushing them together. Just Donna's was done better imo because I genuinely didn't buy that Matt Smith had any chemistry with Alex Kingston/ Eleven had any chemistry with River. But I absolutely buy that David and Catherine had a ball on set at all times which made it feel like the Doctor and Donna were besties.
@@aromaladyellieI agree. To me, Donna's character writing just seemed to me to make her feel a lot more like an actual human being....
I always liked Wilfred Mott, too.
Donna is hard to forget but damn this was a welcome reminder of all the little things; so cathartic, not to mention well put together.
How many times must I watch 10 wipe Donnas mind before it doesn't make me tear up? 😢 And then it ends on Wilf saluting the Doctor - I'm gone. 😭
What a brilliant way to remind or introduce Donna prior to the 60th. 👍👍
Yeah I was sad for ages when her mind was wiped.
Ten and Donna make up my all-time favorite companion duo. They really made each other better and were exactly what the other needed at the time. They may not have had long together in the grand scheme of things, but I always felt that what happened to Donna was really what set Ten on a path to spiraling. He and Martha parted on good terms and he was able to give Rose one last gift --- but with Donna, he was faced with two terrible choices. Either let her die or destroy her memory of their friendship and adventures together, which had helped her blossom into the beautiful and compassionate person she became. I imagine that was beyond devastating. It's clear that she also had an impact on the Doctor way down the line, as it was implied that River knew who Donna was an what happened to her, AND the Doctor subconsciously chose the face of Caecilius because of her.
Over 1,000 years have passed for the Doctor since we last saw Donna. They've been through so much and lost so many others. Meanwhile, Donna has been living her life --- she got married and is now a Mother. So I'm really interested to see if/how those things come through in these characters' personalities and their friendship.
I'm also wondering how Donna will react to it all, since I'm assuming she gets her memory back. Will she be upset with the Doctor for taking her choice away all those years ago? I'd have to think she wouldn't regret that she got the opportunity to meet her husband and have her daughter, but still... I can't help but wonder if she'll initially feel some resentment that he made the choice for her when she literally begged him not to.
Donna's character is very well written and well developed, but her storyline is heart-wrenching. I hope this coming 60th anniversary special gives her a good ending, she deserves better.
Catherine Tate crushed it during her run. Her range is incredible. Turn Left and Silence in the Library are my favorite modern Who stories. The production team as a whole was firing on all cylinders but Tate's performance brought those stories to another level.
Considering she had her memories erased I'm intrigued to see how they bring her back
It will have been the toymaker bringing them together for years and if the first doctor story where it says he is immortal and can’t be destroyed is anything to go by he is in it for long game and easily more powerful than Doctor he could easily just fix her with a wave of his hand and pass it off ass nothing all so he can play games with them
"I'm waving at fat" is probably one of my favourite lines
I love the chemistry between 10 and Donna. It's...well...BRILLIANT
These clips also show how treat Wilf was. That actor was phenomenal.
Bernard Cribbins. Unfortunately he passed away a short time ago. He did film the specials that are on soon.
@@fayesouthall6604Makes me want to cry when I think of it. He was such a good man and a good actor.
Donna had the saddest ending of any companion and I'm so happy they're gonna fix that soon
I think leaving out her grandpa's scene with the switch that makes the doctor sacrifice himself made the video feel incomplete. I feel in a lot of ways Donna's story and her grandpa's are one and the same
When Donna is crying out to the doctor about not wanting to go back it breaks my heart. Going from flying to TARDIS to back to being a selfish temp in Chiswick.
I was casually painting on a saturday arvo, now i am crying so hard.
You can keep the Clara Feelings Show... give me Donna any day of the week. She was brilliant in every possible way imaginable!
I just loved the chemistry between those two and also grandad. They were the best acting performances in Dr Who ever. Glad two of them are back for a while. RIP Bernard Cribbins. Lovely man. X
Anyone else got a little sad seeing Wilf and remembering that Bernard is no longer with us😢
This shouldn’t be so emotional. Bloody hell.
Doctor Donna is the best episodes ❤️ ♥️ and her granddad is just the granddad I wanted and I believe most people wanted that to..
Thanks for this. I LOVED her storyline so much, still makes me tear up. I can't wait for the new series. No one will ever be able to replace Donna.
My theory, Donna will regenerate into Ncuti Gatwa’s Doctor. And Tennet will either die or be trapped in some way that he is not a part of the show again for a while at least. Thus beginning anew with a new doctor arc and ending the classic doctors line of regenerations. This become the reboot of the franchise from this going forward. Thus listen to Gatwa’s clips that’s already out and how he says his lines, and then listen the the exact same lines as Donna says them. You will hear it as well… The Doctor Donna, it’s been there all along.
Maybe this'll age well. Maybe not, but a pretty good theory nonetheless
Damn I never thought of it like that 😮
If this happens, trust me when I say… a lot of fans will be sad or disappointed. You just can’t get rid of the original doctor and be replaced with a new arc doctor
Her story breaks my heart. I loved Donna so much.
I'm going to miss Bernard Cribbins in the 60th anniversary special.
He's in it.
Unless they filmed the 60th prior to his death last year, I'm pretty sure he won't be in it. The trailer only shows Donna's mom
@@vantain20 Yeah, that's what I thought, though it's possible - if a bit disrespectful - that they could deepfake him in, or maybe they have some unused archive footage of some kind.
@@SerathDarklands only time will tell. The 60th can't come soon enough
@@vantain20 Yeah, I'm pretty excited for it too, though I'm hoping it's on BBC America as well as Disney +, since I'm not paying extra to watch it on Disney +.
Great video! Would’ve also been cool to see the scene where 12 remembers what she said about saving people. Just to show how much her influence carried on in the Doctors life.
I guess the problem with this is Donna's character is all nuance. Hitting just the story beats misses the depth of how awesome she was.
Time for a full rewatch before the specials!
“Because you two were just Time Lords, you dumbos, lackin that gut instinct that comes hand in hand with planet Earth. I can think of things you two couldn’t dream up in a million years! Aw, the Universe been waiting for me!” We deserved Doctor Donna. We were robbed.
This was so good to watch still got teary eyed think that Doctor/ Donna was the best together so looking forward to 60th anniversary with them both. Thank you for making this.💖🐩🐩👍👍🕊🌈
21:43 This bit broke my heart. Those were real tears.
I Really Really Loved Catherine Tate Who Played Donna Noble as The Tenth and Fourteenth Doctors Companion in Doctor Who Loads Lots and So So Much ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
this is such a great video! nearly made me cry seeing donna's ending again ;-;
My favorite companion. She was FANTASTIC!
I hope 14 restores all her memories and sense of self while preventing her from dying. He can give her one of his gens to preserve her life; he is timeless after all, and we can see him turn into 15.
You are awesome, spectacular Lady. I love ❤❤❤❤❤❤ you ( Donna Noble) 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 and i love this amazone series The Doctor who with David Tennant, Matt Smith.
As we just had the doctordonnathon this video can be watched for those who can’t sit 14 hours or see them in one sitting as of work commitments, great work 😊
Donna is my favorite companion, for so many reasons. I'm so glad we're getting to spend a bit more time with her!
I rediscovered Dr Who during this time period, having watched it as a kid with Baker’s version of the Doctor. Tenant and Tate were so fun to watch together! Also became a fan of her sketch comedy show.
“She’s my daughter”
She’s your WIFE!!
😂😂😂😂
And here I am crying once again 😭
This has literally just brought me to tears for the first time in years - well done!
Looking forward to getting her back for the fresh Tennant run. 🔥
They absolutely need to redeem Donna's end. Some out there are literally saying she should die at the end. What's wrong with people? No. We need her to have a goodbye. But a good goodbye. I need to feel good about the end of her story because so far, i haven't.
It'll be nice to get Donna back.
This was put together beautifully, thank you ❤
Well, now I have seen something I'd never really taken in before. In the Fires of Pompeii Lucius says "Daughter of London, you have something on your back" 🤦♂it was referring to the Time Beetle in Turn Left, but Donna and the Doctor haven't travelled there yet i'm guessing.
When Dr who came bk with Chris and rose it was ok n then David came n it became a fun duo.....
Enter Donna 🤣when she finds him again s4 ep1, it gives me such happyness 😁👍 best arc of the show n been a year of excitement waiting for this 3parter coming 😁 guna be a good 3hours 🖤
Forgot about the master special aswell so guna av to rewatch that, absolutely gutted Donna's grandad has passed in real life 😢 he played his part to a 10 🖤
And here we go again, if only for a little while. I know the rumor is Donna will finally die, but I don't believe that. And, yes, Donna was the best companion of New Who and the second best of all time. I'm a Sarah Jane girl, but I ❤❤ Donna!
I love how 19:04 was potentially teased to be The Toy Maker. Caan only viewed all of this happening, but The Toy Maker? He was behind this all along
I really wanted Donna to get a spinoff.
Wow, so great to see this all in one viewing….thanks so much…tears in my eyes…
Can’t wait for the new season!
makes me wanna cry..... such a great story
Greatest companion
This was really good thank you .
Happy birthday from France.❤
✨✨ "Well you’re not mating with me SUNSHINE" ✨✨
Im not crying, you are!
Thank you, you made me remember how much I loved Doctor Donna, the best, most wholesome, amazing, heartbreaking saga of all DW history. Can't wait for the specials to start
Can’t wait for the reunion
FINALLY THE BEST ONE COMING BACK
Donna's story is epic! She and the Doctor are the best of friends, ready to take more adventures in space and time together! I'm so glad she finally has a happy ending. ❤
Thank you so much for putting this together, it was the perfect way to catch my family up before the specials.
What's most interesting to me here is that they've always been drawn together even after she forgets everything, even Capaldi's face is a callback to her lesson she taught the doctor, so who or what os tieing them together? The toymaker? RTD? Mofat? Something else more subtle? Something relating to New Earth? And the secret that waits?
Ahh my favorite pair 👍🇬🇧❤❤
Great vid
Thanks for making this. I really haven't watched all if doctor who and I want to watch the 60th anniversary series with the knowledge of the Doctor and Donna's relationship. This helps a lot.
What a great video, will watch it again before the Star Beast ❤
I love Martha's development, even warning Donna about travelling with the doctor when at first she was jusy smitten with him
Donna Noble. Can’t wait to see her in action with the Doctor again.
I expected to cry by the end f this video, i didn't expect to start about 5 minutes in. 💙💙
Watching this had me crying Again.
she was my favourite and was so sad that he had to erase her momary again and not see her again
Wilf's final moment in this video is his final moment on Doctor Who, too. :'(
Absolute icon of a companion
Anyone else get the feeling Donna is gonna be the new Doctor? It just feels like she will become the new time lord and I'm here for this
Oh, I can’t wait
I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE RETURN OF DONNA NOBLE
This was pure GOLD. Loved this, major Whovian. Although Tom Baker and Elizabeth Sladen are my favorite “pair,” David T. and Catherine are my second!
They are brilliant together the chemistry is so real. Hope the 60th will not be their last 🤞
Wonderful..
Wilfred will always be missed.. 💋
R.I.P Wilf (Bernard Cribbins) 1928-2022
Always a pleasure seeing Dave Ross in his fancy wheelchair
For the longest time Leela was my favorite and then Donna came along.
The Doctor Donna the best paring on the TARDIS. Hell David and Catherine together in anything…Ghost of Christmas Present and Nan In Nans Christmas Carol is so funny.
Dona Noble's / grandad's "Labor camps is what they called them last time." scene brought me to tears. Not the best of looks at the MPLS downtown library.
I love David Tennant's Doctor Who so much❤
It was the best of Doctor Who for me.
I love Donna as well, she is so lovely. ❤
Catherine Tate is in a class all her own …. absolutely brilliant, and my 100% favourite Companion.
DOCTOR DONNA EVERYTIME
Grandad crying always gets me. I flipping hate it. And then he actually died and made all this worse. Gah!!! 😭
GOAT companion
If Davies brings back Jenny for the 60th (he won't) I'll cry
Also the way Donna swears without swearing will always be true artistry
Catharine Tate and David tenant are magic together ,I have been waiting for them to be reunited for years......This is going to be the best ...Cant wait....
Donna Dies....
in the 60th 😢
1. A character is usually portrayed as near perfect to get the audience to love them in order to make the biggest impact when they die.
2. RTD's Doctor Who has ALWAYS been a tragedy. Think of bad wolf bay. Remember the "journey's end" episode, the "family of blood" episode, etc.
3. The Doctor's comment about not being able to save Donna sounds like foreshadowing.
4. The point of bringing back David & Catherine is to get fans re-hooked to the show. This is most easily accomplished by creating a huge emotional reaction to the story. Hence... Donna dies, and the Doctor travels with her child. Which is an attempt to transfer the emotions we will feel over Donna's death to her posterity. They'll probably even have her child use some of Donna's speech patterns etc to get us emotional hooked to the new companion.
5. If we are emotionally hooked to the new companion, and the new companion accepts the new Doctor, the audience is more likely to accept the new Doctor as well.
6. All of this makes it more likely the audience will continue to watch just because of the emotional impact.
It's all physiological manipulation.
"Only the emotional damage is real."
Ngl, River's gotta be in the specials somewhere. Otherwise River's reaction to Donna doesn't make any sense. 11 wouldn't have talked about Donna, and 12 would've had bigger things to worry about, the only way River knew Donna's fate is if she saw it when it happens during the 60th, or she heard it from 14 after it happened. Besides, River inevitably meets every Doctor, so it's not like it wouldn't work.
can you update this?
What happened to midnight? As she was in the beginning and end of it
Yeah but that was not important for her story, he's showing every key moments in Donna's story
@@Sofiandu81F1 I see must wondering
@@Sofiandu81F1that’s true. Although I do love the moment where the Doctor comes back and she just knows immediately that he needs a hug. It shows how close they are and that she knows him better than almost anyone.
Anyway to make the background music louder it's not nearly ear piercingly loud enough
When does the Doctor Who return in november and where
November 25th bbc one
And Disney +. I subscribe to Disney plus just for the new episode
