Let's talk about companions.
More specifically companions of the Doctor.
Even more specifically my favorite companion.
Donna THEBESTEVER Noble.
I have to admit the first time we met Miss Noble, I was hesitant, we had just gone through a life changing event. ROSE WAS GONE! WE JUST LEFT HER THERE ON THE BEACH! WE DIDN'T EVEN FINISH OUR SENTENCE!
Well I finished it.
Doctor: And I suppose if it's the last chance for me to say it, Rose Tyler...
Me: I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So we are back on the TARDIS basically with our hearts ripped open and bleeding rose red all over the console when there she was.
WHAT?
Donna SHEROCKSSOCKS Noble. (almost looks like Sherlockssocks)
The original ginger in a wedding dress. (Sorry Amy)
WHAT?
He says WHAT? a few more times.
Here is the deal with Donna. She is loud. She is mean but she is also perhaps the kindest companion thus far. She stands up to the Doctor about his frequent BS and like he says about her many times.
SHE SAVED HIM.
I didn't know I missed Donna until we saw her again in "Partners in Crime". After a hectic and depressing season with Martha (none of that her fault; that is another post) it was kind of a sigh of relief moment when the Doctor saw her through that window.
David and Catherine have a very special kind of chemistry, one that goes beyond romantic.
I've heard people say Donna is like the Doctor's sister but they get confused as a couple so much that feels weird. I would say they are the perfect example of best friends.
Donna is my favorite because I think I would be most like Donna, I relate to her the most, her demeanor, her sense of humor, her insecurities, not so much for her love of black men.... I do prefer the skinny pasty british man... the kind that will give paper cuts when you hug them.
It's a more bitter than sweet ending for us with Donna. Also for The Doctor to have to leave her behind- I'm sure he thought he had found his new Rose but without all those pesky romantic feelings.
Donna SHEISBETTERTHANYOU Noble.
"No stupid martian is going to stop me from getting married. To hell with you!"
