0:00:21 > 0:00:22- The Doctor.- Hello!
0:00:25 > 0:00:28He can certainly look after himself,
0:00:28 > 0:00:31but he loves nothing better than sharing his adventures
0:00:31 > 0:00:32with like-minded companions.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Run!
0:00:34 > 0:00:38From New New Earth to Old Pompeii,
0:00:38 > 0:00:40this dynamic duo make the universe a safer place.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42Hi!
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Coming up on Doctor Who's Greatest Moments,
0:00:44 > 0:00:49we buddy up with his best friends to find out that even the Doctor needs somebody.
0:00:49 > 0:00:55# I've been roaming around always looking down at all I see
0:00:57 > 0:01:02# Painted faces fill the places I can't reach
0:01:04 > 0:01:07# You know that I could use somebody... #
0:01:09 > 0:01:12- I'm so glad I met you.- Thank you!
0:01:15 > 0:01:18- So hold on tight.- I am!
0:01:18 > 0:01:20As we bring you the very best companion action.
0:01:20 > 0:01:25They are our way in, they are the character that we identify with.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28I think it's important for the Doctor to have somebody there.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32To have somebody that you can share the magic with.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37But what exactly does it take to be a hit with the Doctor?
0:01:38 > 0:01:39Back of the net!
0:01:40 > 0:01:42It's how the show has always worked
0:01:42 > 0:01:50and there's been usually a human TARDIS traveller.
0:01:50 > 0:01:54We identify with them that they are our way in. Skasis Paradigm.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58- They're trying to crack the Skasis Paradigm.- The Skasis what?
0:01:58 > 0:02:00The God-maker. The Universal Theory.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Crack that equation, you've got control of the building blocks of the universe.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07On a very practical level, you need someone to ask the questions.
0:02:07 > 0:02:12The Doctor knows everything, so needs a reason to say out loud what's going on
0:02:12 > 0:02:15rather than just know it inside this head. Time and space and matter.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Yours to control.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19- What? And the kids are like a giant computer?- Yes.
0:02:19 > 0:02:26So, there's that very, very pragmatic need to have somebody there alongside the Doctor.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29SQUAWKING
0:02:32 > 0:02:36You're asking the questions that your audience of all ages will ask.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40Why? What? When? How? And that takes you forward.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- I can't shift it.- I thought the sonic screwdriver could open anything.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Anything except a deadlocked seal. There must be something inside.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52You're just allowing the audience to think, "What would that really be like?
0:02:52 > 0:02:56"What would that feel like?" What would the sense of that be?"
0:02:56 > 0:03:00To suddenly be hurtling through time and space.
0:03:00 > 0:03:05- You've redecorated. - You like it?- Oh, I do, yeah.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08So, to be an assistant, you enter into that genre.
0:03:08 > 0:03:12You enter into that land of taking a leap into the unknown.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20They say that first impressions count and none
0:03:20 > 0:03:24more so than when mysterious alien meets future companion.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28- What? What?- Who are you?
0:03:33 > 0:03:36Martha's meeting with the Time Lord was far from straightforward.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38But, like, how?
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Like so!
0:03:41 > 0:03:43You see?
0:03:49 > 0:03:52- Told you.- No, but...
0:03:52 > 0:03:53that was this morning.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57We see him at the beginning of Series Three in a place in his life
0:03:57 > 0:04:00where he's kind of just getting on with it on his own.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02He wasn't looking to recruit anybody at that time.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06You get one trip, then back home. I'd rather be on my own.
0:04:06 > 0:04:13And I do think that she does display all of those things that he does admire in a companion.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15- Hold on.- Don't!
0:04:15 > 0:04:16We'll lose all the air.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18But they're not exactly airtight.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22If the air was going to get sucked out, it would have happened straightaway. But it didn't.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26- Very good point! Brilliant, in fact. What was your name?- Martha.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28And it was Jones, wasn't it?
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Well, Martha Jones, the question is, how are we still breathing?
0:04:31 > 0:04:35She speaks her mind, which I think he finds quite amusing.
0:04:35 > 0:04:36You're completely mad.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40He seemed to stumble across her in a time of his life when perhaps he
0:04:40 > 0:04:44didn't expect to, so it probably starts as a more temporary thing.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Are you OK?
0:04:46 > 0:04:50- Yeah.- Sure?- Yeah. - Do you want to go back in?- No way.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54I mean, we could die any minute, but all the same, it's beautiful.
0:04:55 > 0:05:00- Do you think?- How many people want go to the moon? And here we are.
0:05:00 > 0:05:06When we find Rose, there's nothing that exciting going on in her life.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09And she just feels bored.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12And when you're bored you get lethargic and lazy.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16There's no point in getting up, sweetheart.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18You've got no job to go to.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22She's waiting for something to happen and sure enough it does.
0:05:26 > 0:05:27Run!
0:05:32 > 0:05:35She meets this guy who completely challenges her ideas,
0:05:35 > 0:05:37like nobody else has ever done.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Who are you?
0:05:39 > 0:05:41I told you, the Doctor.
0:05:41 > 0:05:42Yeah, but Doctor what?
0:05:42 > 0:05:44- Just the Doctor.- The Doctor?
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Hello!
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Broadens her horizons.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51- I saw things you wouldn't believe. - Try me.- Mummies.- I've met ghosts.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55- Robots, lots of robots. - Slitheen in Downing Street.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57- Daleks!- Met the Emperor.
0:05:57 > 0:05:58- Anti-matter monsters. - Gas-mask zombies.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00- Real living dinosaurs. - Real living werewolf.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04- The Loch Ness Monster!- Seriously?
0:06:04 > 0:06:07He sees there's something going on with this girl
0:06:07 > 0:06:11and there's something special about her, so he invests in her
0:06:11 > 0:06:13and she's loyal to him and she's committed
0:06:13 > 0:06:16and she shows so much conviction in everything she does.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19And when The Doctor first descends on companion-to-be Donna Noble,
0:06:19 > 0:06:23it seems she has other commitments.
0:06:23 > 0:06:28Well, she's fairly appalled and gobsmacked and not entirely pleased.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32I mean, it is the middle of her wedding.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35It's not the most ideal time to be snatched out of the space-time continuum.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42SHE SCREAMS
0:06:48 > 0:06:50She's fairly unforgiving about it.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53She assumes that she's having some prank played on her
0:06:53 > 0:06:56and she clearly doesn't imagine for one second
0:06:56 > 0:06:59that the Doctor is really a time-travelling alien.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02I demand you tell me right now where am I?
0:07:02 > 0:07:03Inside the TARDIS.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05- You what?- The TARDIS.
0:07:05 > 0:07:06- You what?- The TARDIS!
0:07:06 > 0:07:08- The what!?- It's called the TARDIS.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12That's not even a proper word. You're just saying things!
0:07:12 > 0:07:14She just thinks she's being set up by Nerys.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Who was it? Who's paying you?
0:07:16 > 0:07:18Was it Nerys? Oh, my God!
0:07:18 > 0:07:23She's finally got me back. This has got Nerys written all over it.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26It takes her a while to be convinced that the Doctor is who he says he is.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Who are you?
0:07:29 > 0:07:34- I'm the Doctor. You?- Donna.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40- Human?- Yeah. Is that optional?
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Well, it is for me.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49- You're an alien?- Yeah.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56Once the Doctor companions have got used to the idea of
0:07:56 > 0:07:59a two-hearted Time Lord from outer space, they then have to
0:07:59 > 0:08:03come to terms with the TARDIS, his totally pimped-out ride.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07But it's just a box. But it's huge!
0:08:12 > 0:08:15When I first walked into the TARDIS early one morning,
0:08:15 > 0:08:19I was just overwhelmed by the size and scale of it. And it's beautiful.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21It's very impressive.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23And it takes your breath away.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Then, obviously, playing Rose, the idea of walking into this blue police box
0:08:27 > 0:08:31and then entering this world,
0:08:31 > 0:08:35because it is a world in there, it's this crazy world
0:08:35 > 0:08:38and there's this crazy mad sorcerer in there
0:08:38 > 0:08:40just conjuring up loads of magic.
0:08:43 > 0:08:44Are you alien?
0:08:44 > 0:08:47Yes.
0:08:47 > 0:08:48- Is that all right?- Yeah.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50It's quite daunting at first for Rose.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55That's OK. Culture shock. Happens to the best of us.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58But then she kind of just slips into it
0:08:58 > 0:09:04and, you know, learns to fly that thing and gets involved and mucks in
0:09:04 > 0:09:08and has responsibilities in the TARDIS. And then it's her home.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Only a lucky few ever fly with The Doctor
0:09:12 > 0:09:15and only the best of the best get their own key.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Promise you won't disappear?
0:09:22 > 0:09:26Tell you what, TARDIS key. About time you had one.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28See you later!
0:09:28 > 0:09:31I think the moment the companion gets a key, it's absolutely clearly
0:09:31 > 0:09:34like getting the keys to your front door when you're at home.
0:09:34 > 0:09:39It is, it's trust. Here you can come and go as you please and treat it maybe more like your home.
0:09:39 > 0:09:44So it's so important for Martha to receive the key,
0:09:44 > 0:09:48especially in episode seven, which is, I believe, this pivotal moment.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Now, what do you say?
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Ice-skating on the mineral lakes of Kurhan? Fancy it?
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Whatever you like.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01By the way, you'll be needing this.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06- Really?- Frequent flyer's privilege.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10It's really quite far in to series three when Martha finally gets a key.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13The Doctor's been resisting it, I suppose,
0:10:13 > 0:10:15and he's been resisting the idea
0:10:15 > 0:10:19that he's going to have anyone travelling with him at all.
0:10:19 > 0:10:26But finally he has to face the fact that Martha's fairly indispensable to him.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29- Thank you.- Don't mention it.
0:10:31 > 0:10:36At that point, I think she relaxes a little bit more,
0:10:36 > 0:10:40that she, you know, is perhaps more of a permanent feature there.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42So it's really significant to receive the key.
0:10:42 > 0:10:46Donna ends up getting a key to the TARDIS
0:10:46 > 0:10:51slightly incidentally because they're in the middle of sorting out,
0:10:51 > 0:10:53you know, the end of the world.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56- The air is disgusting.- It's not so bad for me. Go on.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Get inside the TARDIS. Oh! I've never given you a key.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02So he has to just quickly hand it over.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05Then The Doctor feels a bit guilty about that and tries to make a bit of moment of it.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Go on, that's yours. Quite a big moment, really.
0:11:07 > 0:11:12- Yeah, maybe we'll get sentimental after the world's finished choking to death.- Good idea!
0:11:12 > 0:11:17There's no real poetry in that moment, it's just a practical moment
0:11:17 > 0:11:22that of course she's delighted about but she's not that way inclined.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24Once a companion gets their own key,
0:11:24 > 0:11:28it unlocks a world of adventures on board the TARDIS.
0:11:28 > 0:11:29It's the TARDIS.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31My TARDIS.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33The best ship in the universe.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35- Off we go then!- Allons-y!
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Come with me.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55- I like it, don't you?- I love it!
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Search any social networking site for a companion of the Doctor
0:12:09 > 0:12:13and their relationship status is, well, it's complicated.
0:12:21 > 0:12:26Basically, the story between the Doctor and Rose was a love story.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28They clearly found each other
0:12:28 > 0:12:32when they both needed each other for very different reasons.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Rose needed a new life.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38- Thanks.- Thanks for what?- Exactly.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43The Doctor needed a touchstone.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47The Doctor needed someone to level him out and to make him
0:12:47 > 0:12:52believe in the possibilities of life again, I think.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54I'm a Time Lord.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57I'm the last of the Time Lords.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59They're all gone.
0:12:59 > 0:13:00I'm the only survivor.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04I'm left travelling on my own because there's no one else.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07There's me.
0:13:07 > 0:13:11It's such an interesting dynamic because, reading the scripts,
0:13:11 > 0:13:15you just can't put your finger on what their relationship is about.
0:13:15 > 0:13:21And I don't think they really ever question it.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23They just get on with it.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27But there's this kind of suggestion that there may be some romance.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30I think she's quite in love with him.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36I think when you see them being most affectionate towards each other
0:13:36 > 0:13:38is when they're having fun together.
0:13:38 > 0:13:43Tooth And Claw, where they have the running joke of trying to get Queen Victoria to say, "I am not amused".
0:13:43 > 0:13:47She's a fair old child. I bought her for sixpence in Old London Town.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50- It was her or the Elephant Man, so... - Thinks he's funny,
0:13:50 > 0:13:52but I'm so not amused. What do you think, Ma'am?
0:13:52 > 0:13:55There are the more obviously emotional scenes
0:13:55 > 0:14:00like in Satan Pit when The Doctor is hanging on the end of the rope
0:14:00 > 0:14:06and asking to be remembered to her. If you talk to Rose, just tell her...
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Tell her...
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Oh, she knows.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24In Impossible planet, where they talk about setting up home together
0:14:24 > 0:14:27and whether that's ever likely to happen...
0:14:27 > 0:14:32Me, living in a house? Now, that is terrifying.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34You'd have to get a mortgage!
0:14:34 > 0:14:38- No.- Oh, yeah!- I'm dying. I'm dying. That's it. It is all over.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40What about me? I'd have to get one too.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43I don't know. It could be the same one.
0:14:43 > 0:14:44We could both...
0:14:46 > 0:14:49I dunno, share. Or not. Whatever.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52- All sorts of...- Anyway...- We'll see.
0:14:52 > 0:14:58When The Doctor goes missing in Fear Her and Rose wonders if she's lost him,
0:14:58 > 0:15:00and then of course when they're reunited again,
0:15:00 > 0:15:03it's a great scene where they talk about cupcakes.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07I can't stress this enough. Ball-bearings you can eat.
0:15:07 > 0:15:08Masterpiece!
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Ooh! I thought I'd lost you!
0:15:12 > 0:15:16They talk about spending the rest of their life together and
0:15:16 > 0:15:18then the Doctor gets some kind of portent of doom.
0:15:18 > 0:15:23- No, we'll always be OK, you and me. - FIREWORKS FIZZ AND BANG
0:15:23 > 0:15:25Don't you reckon, Doctor?
0:15:27 > 0:15:29- Something in the air. Something coming.- What?
0:15:31 > 0:15:33A storm's approaching.
0:15:36 > 0:15:40I think the thing with Rose and the Doctor was that this was a sparky
0:15:40 > 0:15:44bright girl from an estate that gets plucked into time travel
0:15:44 > 0:15:49and you see over the time under the Doctor's tutelage and friendship,
0:15:49 > 0:15:51this sort of young girl blossom
0:15:51 > 0:15:55into this clever, responsible, beautiful woman.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57I'll see you later.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Not if I see you first!
0:16:04 > 0:16:10And it was the first time as a viewer you really got to see the Doctor engage with another person.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19It left an imprint that then went through all the companions.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21The Battle of Canary Wharf.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23I saw the list of the dead.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26- It said Rose Tyler.- On no! Sorry.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28She's alive.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30- You're kidding? - Parallel world. Safe and sound.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- And Mickey. And her mother.- Yes!
0:16:36 > 0:16:37Good old Rose.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41The relationship she thought she would maybe at the beginning
0:16:41 > 0:16:43have with the Doctor is never going to happen.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46He is never going to love her like she loves him.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49And it's just painful for her to just be around him all the time.
0:16:49 > 0:16:50He looked kind of nice.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54- He's a bit more than that. - Are you and him...?
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Sometimes I think he likes me
0:16:57 > 0:17:01but sometimes I just think he needs someone with him.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05The Doctor doesn't seem to notice that Martha might have a bit of a crush on him.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Whether he chooses not to notice it or whether he genuinely can't see
0:17:08 > 0:17:11it is a matter for some debate.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14So, who's going where? There's only one bed.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16We'll manage. Come on.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20In the Shakespeare Code where they end up sharing a bed together, you know,
0:17:20 > 0:17:23it would seem quite cruel of the Doctor
0:17:23 > 0:17:28to be doing that if he actually knew that she was in some way smitten.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30So I like to believe that he genuinely hadn't noticed it.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Are you going to stand there all night?
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Budge up a bit, then.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44- Sorry.- Martha possibly sees this as her opportunity, but it doesn't
0:17:44 > 0:17:46really work out that way because The Doctor couldn't be less interested.
0:17:46 > 0:17:50There's not much room. Us two here, same bed.
0:17:50 > 0:17:55- Tongues will wag.- There's such a thing as psychic energy, but a human couldn't channel it like that.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Not without a generator the size of Taunton,
0:17:57 > 0:17:59and we would have spotted that. No.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03There's something I'm missing, Martha.
0:18:06 > 0:18:07Something really close.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10And then makes the fatal mistake of mentioning the ex-girlfriend.
0:18:12 > 0:18:19Rose would know. A friend of mine, Rose, right now she'd say exactly the right thing.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Still, can't be helped.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27You're a novice. Never mind.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30- Take you back home tomorrow.- Great.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36What the companions always want from The Doctor -
0:18:36 > 0:18:40the acceptance, they don't get in their own world,
0:18:40 > 0:18:45so they're on the TARDIS, doing what they can to please The Doctor
0:18:45 > 0:18:47to get that acceptance or to get that romance.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48I know what it's like.
0:18:48 > 0:18:52It's like when you fancy someone and they don't even know you exist.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55That's what it's like. Come on!
0:18:56 > 0:18:57You too, huh?
0:18:59 > 0:19:04Although they became very close and they became a good team,
0:19:04 > 0:19:08that was always going to drive a rift between them
0:19:08 > 0:19:11that the Doctor could never be to Martha
0:19:11 > 0:19:13what she ultimately wanted him to be.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17You got yourself a forward-thinking guy with that hot potato in the sharp suit.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20He's not...we're not together.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Oh, sure you are. I've seen the way you look at him.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25- It's obvious.- Not to him.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29So then with Donna, I think there was a great relief for The Doctor
0:19:29 > 0:19:31that she couldn't be less interested in him
0:19:31 > 0:19:33as anything other than a friend.
0:19:33 > 0:19:38- I just want a mate. - You just want to mate?
0:19:38 > 0:19:40I just want a mate.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42You're not mating with me, sunshine.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45A mate. I want a mate!
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Just as well because I'm not having any of that nonsense.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53You're just a long streak of nothing. Alien nothing.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55There we are, then.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57OK.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00I can come?
0:20:00 > 0:20:03Yeah. Of course you can, yeah.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07I'd love it.
0:20:07 > 0:20:12And they were just best mates, I think, which was usually quite liberating for the Doctor.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14They just had a laugh.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17I'm here! In Rome.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20Donna Noble in Rome.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23This is just weird.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27I think the Doctor has to slightly readjust to what he's used to in a companion.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30I've been thinking. Sorry.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32I'm going home.
0:20:33 > 0:20:34Really?
0:20:34 > 0:20:36I've got to.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41Well, if that's what you want.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45I mean, it's a bit soon.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Thank you.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55Thank you, Donna Noble.
0:20:55 > 0:20:56It's been brilliant.
0:20:56 > 0:21:00You've saved my life in so many ways.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05You're...
0:21:05 > 0:21:08You're just popping home for a visit, that's what you mean.
0:21:08 > 0:21:09You dumbo.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12- And then you're coming back. - Do you know what you are?
0:21:12 > 0:21:16- A great big outer space dunce.- Yeah.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Donna brings what I have always believed
0:21:19 > 0:21:22was an essential element into life
0:21:22 > 0:21:25which is men and women can be friends
0:21:25 > 0:21:30and can be platonic friends and we can be good working companions.
0:21:30 > 0:21:35We don't have to make everything into a, "Do I fancy him? Don't I?"
0:21:35 > 0:21:37That's not necessarily an issue.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38Hello!
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Who are you?
0:21:40 > 0:21:43I am...Spartacus.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45And so am I.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48- Mr and Mrs Spartacus? - Oh, no. We're not together.
0:21:48 > 0:21:49Then brother and sister?
0:21:49 > 0:21:53Yes, of course! You look very much alike.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54BOTH: Really?
0:21:54 > 0:21:56She was a great reality check for him.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00And wouldn't really let him away with anything.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04She belongs with us. With you. She's your daughter.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07She's a soldier. She came out of that machine.
0:22:07 > 0:22:08Oh yes, I know that bit!
0:22:08 > 0:22:12She's quite direct, you know.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16So there's no need for her to coat it in anything.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Come here.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Listen.
0:22:20 > 0:22:24And then tell me where she belongs.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27HEARTBEAT
0:22:31 > 0:22:34HEARTBEAT
0:22:34 > 0:22:37It was never going to be an easy ride with Donna,
0:22:37 > 0:22:41but it was going to be worth it in the end. Do you know what I mean?
0:22:41 > 0:22:45To take the time for them to get to know each other.
0:22:48 > 0:22:52Although he never gets hitched to any of his travelling companions,
0:22:52 > 0:22:57The Doctor still has the unenviable task of dealing with the dreaded in-laws.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07If you just stay with the Doctor and his companion,
0:23:07 > 0:23:11it almost becomes normal and it's "There's another monster",
0:23:11 > 0:23:14and "Oh, we'll just have to save the planet yet again".
0:23:15 > 0:23:17Get it off me!
0:23:19 > 0:23:25Sylvia and all mothers help the audience to see
0:23:25 > 0:23:30how extraordinary the experience is that the companions are going through.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34- And what time's this?- How old am I?
0:23:34 > 0:23:40And you get the family dynamic that makes a much more rounded figure.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44It's no good sitting there, dressed up, looking like you're job-hunting.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46You've got to do something.
0:23:46 > 0:23:51It's not like the 1980s. No-one's unemployed these days except you.
0:23:51 > 0:23:57You know where they've come from, how they've got their strengths, how they are the people that they are.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01And are not just companions and are not people that are there
0:24:01 > 0:24:05to fall in love or to be told what to do, but are people in their own right.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10Mums and daughters may have their ups and downs,
0:24:10 > 0:24:12but there's no-one quite like granddad.
0:24:14 > 0:24:18I think he's looked after Donna ever since she was born.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21It would appear she's his only grandchild. I don't know.
0:24:21 > 0:24:25But she's certainly his favourite and he's spoiled her forever.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27And also, she was sympathetic to him with his telescope
0:24:27 > 0:24:31up in the allotment, looking at stars and all that sort of business.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34- Brought you a Thermos.- Oh, ta.
0:24:34 > 0:24:35Have you seen anything?
0:24:35 > 0:24:41Yeah, I've got Venus. There within a current magnitude of -3.5 at least.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44That's what it says in my little book.
0:24:44 > 0:24:45Have a seat. Go on.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48There you go. All right?
0:24:50 > 0:24:55That's the only planet in the solar system named after a woman.
0:24:56 > 0:24:57Good for her.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02And he was just incredibly fond and protective of her.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05You're not yourself, I'll give you that.
0:25:06 > 0:25:11Introducing families and relatives to the companions is so brilliant
0:25:11 > 0:25:17because people love, at home, to see kind of everyday life going on.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20That's yours.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23It's pink.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Mum, it should be yours!
0:25:25 > 0:25:26Jackie doesn't know what's hit her
0:25:26 > 0:25:31when this strange man arrives and her daughter goes off with him
0:25:31 > 0:25:35and she's terrified because she thinks, "What's he doing with her?"
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Just answer me this.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41Is my daughter safe?
0:25:41 > 0:25:42I'm fine.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45'Is she safe?'
0:25:45 > 0:25:47Will she always be safe?
0:25:47 > 0:25:52Part of her thinks, "Why isn't he coming after me?" kind of thing because she's a terrible flirt.
0:25:52 > 0:25:58- Um... I'm in my dressing-gown. - Yes, you are.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01There's a strange man in my bedroom.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Yes, there is.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Well, anything could happen.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10No!
0:26:10 > 0:26:15Then when she realises and understands that he's somebody very special
0:26:15 > 0:26:20and he's going to really look after her daughter, then she's in.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23He's not that bad if you gave him a chance.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25He's good in a crisis, I'll give him that.
0:26:25 > 0:26:29It goes from the hostile...
0:26:29 > 0:26:30Stitch this, mate!
0:26:33 > 0:26:35"How dare you do that to my daughter?"
0:26:35 > 0:26:37To the, "You're all right".
0:26:37 > 0:26:39What does he eat?
0:26:39 > 0:26:40How do you mean?
0:26:40 > 0:26:45I was going to do shepherd's pie. All of us. Proper sit-down.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Cos...I'm ready to listen.
0:26:48 > 0:26:55I think in The Christmas Invasion when the Doctor becomes poorly,
0:26:55 > 0:26:59she really loves him in quite a maternal way.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02I'm having a neuron implosion. I need...
0:27:02 > 0:27:08What do you need? Tell me, tell me. Painkillers? You need aspirin? Codeine? Paracetamol? Pepto Bismal?
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Liquid paraffin? Vitamin C?
0:27:10 > 0:27:12Vitamin D? Vitamin E? Is it food?
0:27:12 > 0:27:16Something simple. Bowl of soup? Nice bowl of soup and a sandwich?
0:27:16 > 0:27:17A little ham sandwich?
0:27:17 > 0:27:20- I need you to shut up!- Oh, he hasn't changed that much, has he?
0:27:20 > 0:27:26And loves them for also looking after her daughter.
0:27:26 > 0:27:30And, in fact, saving the world. Jackie thinks that's brilliant.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34I think the home-life context, sort of,
0:27:34 > 0:27:37lets you see what a journey they're on.
0:27:37 > 0:27:40I don't mind your father making a fool of himself in private.
0:27:40 > 0:27:46But this Leo's 21st. Everyone is going to be there and the entire family is going to look ridiculous.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49Mum, it's a party. I can't stop Dad from bringing his girlfriend.
0:27:49 > 0:27:55You know, they're chugging along with all the ordinary daily stresses and struggles that many people have.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58You know, work, relationships, money...
0:27:58 > 0:28:01Clive, that woman is disrespecting me. She's never liked me!
0:28:01 > 0:28:04I can't think why, after you stole my husband!
0:28:04 > 0:28:07Then this sort of bombshell is dropped into their lives.
0:28:07 > 0:28:08Which is the Doctor.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10This is a friend of mine. The Doctor.
0:28:10 > 0:28:11Doctor what?
0:28:11 > 0:28:13No, it's just the Doctor.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16- We've been doing some work together. - You all right, mate?
0:28:16 > 0:28:21- Lovely to meet you, Mrs Jones. I've heard a lot about you. - Have you? What have you heard?
0:28:21 > 0:28:23You know, that you're Martha's mother and...
0:28:26 > 0:28:30No, actually, that's about it. We haven't had much time to chat.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34- You know, been busy. - Busy? Doing what, exactly?
0:28:35 > 0:28:38You know...stuff.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41I think any mother who sees her children put in harm's way
0:28:41 > 0:28:45will want to go to what they think is the source of that and stop it
0:28:45 > 0:28:49and so, for Francine, the source of the harm in her children's life is the Doctor.
0:28:49 > 0:28:51So he deserves a slap!
0:28:51 > 0:28:52Ah, Mrs Jones.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54We still haven't finished our chat.
0:28:54 > 0:28:56Keep away from my daughter.
0:28:56 > 0:29:00- Mum, what are you doing? - All of the mothers. Every time!
0:29:03 > 0:29:08But for all his heroics, sometimes it's not the Doctor that saves the day.
0:29:08 > 0:29:12Occasionally, it's the companion that has to swing into action.
0:29:22 > 0:29:23There's nothing you can do!
0:29:25 > 0:29:29I've got no A-levels, no job, no future.
0:29:30 > 0:29:33But I tell you what I have got.
0:29:33 > 0:29:37Jericho Street junior school under-sevens gymnastics team.
0:29:37 > 0:29:38I got the bronze.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43MUSIC: Theme from Indiana Jones
0:29:51 > 0:29:52Rose!
0:29:56 > 0:29:57Now we're in trouble.
0:29:57 > 0:30:01At times, the Doctor can't see a way out of the situation.
0:30:01 > 0:30:04And Rose is there and she's so astute
0:30:04 > 0:30:07and so inquisitive that she spots things.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10How can you hide something that big in a city this small?
0:30:10 > 0:30:11- Hide what?- The transmitter.
0:30:11 > 0:30:15In the end, ultimately, they help the Doctor with his mission.
0:30:15 > 0:30:19A huge, metal, circular structure. Like a dish, like a wheel. Radial.
0:30:19 > 0:30:22Close to where we're standing. Must be completely invisible.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25What?
0:30:27 > 0:30:28What?
0:30:30 > 0:30:31What is it, what?
0:30:35 > 0:30:37Oh.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41At the end of Satan Pit, yes, it's Rose who manages
0:30:41 > 0:30:47to send Will Thorpe into the vacuum of space with a bolt gun.
0:30:48 > 0:30:50Nothing shall either destroy me! Nothing!
0:30:50 > 0:30:53Go to hell.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01Fear Her, as well. Of course it's Rose,
0:31:01 > 0:31:04when the Doctor disappears into Chloe Webber's painting,
0:31:04 > 0:31:07it's Rose who takes matters into her own hands.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10Doctor, if you can hear me, I'm going to get you out of there.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12I'll find the pod.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15It's Rose who works out what the Isolus needs to fly free.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18No! No!
0:31:18 > 0:31:24Stop! You just took a council axe from a council van and now you're digging up a council road!
0:31:24 > 0:31:26I'm reporting you to the council!
0:31:30 > 0:31:35- It went for the hottest thing in the street, your tar!- What is it?
0:31:35 > 0:31:39It's a spaceship. Not a council spaceship, I'm afraid.
0:31:39 > 0:31:44It's Rose who wields an axe to get into the bedroom where it's all kicking off.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50She has to sort that one out herself.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52Feel the love.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11Oh, the maid is full of fire!
0:32:11 > 0:32:12And you can shut up!
0:32:12 > 0:32:14'She is not a wallflower.'
0:32:14 > 0:32:17She likes to get her hands dirty.
0:32:17 > 0:32:20She likes to get in there and get involved.
0:32:20 > 0:32:21Martha, where are you?
0:32:21 > 0:32:24It's all right, I'm here. Just save everything up.
0:32:24 > 0:32:25That's my girl!
0:32:25 > 0:32:28Big bolt of lightning, electricity all down the building.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30Connect this to the lift and they get zapped.
0:32:30 > 0:32:36I think there's moments when your children exceed your expectations and you go...
0:32:36 > 0:32:38"Oh, you're not just my baby.
0:32:38 > 0:32:43"You're a whole person and you can do amazing things. Wow."
0:32:45 > 0:32:51'I think that Martha's journey to save the world,'
0:32:51 > 0:32:54is SO important...
0:32:54 > 0:32:59because, you know, she knows that it's all on her.
0:32:59 > 0:33:02No need to ask who you are. The famous Martha Jones.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04How long since you were last in Britain?
0:33:04 > 0:33:07365 days.
0:33:07 > 0:33:08It's been a long year.
0:33:08 > 0:33:14The sacrifice that Martha makes, actually, to save the day, to save the world from The Master,
0:33:14 > 0:33:19'is on a scale that we've never seen elsewhere, actually.'
0:33:22 > 0:33:28She finds that year draining, difficult, lonely.
0:33:28 > 0:33:33Just really quite, you know, negative in terms of what she's been asked to do.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35But she keeps the faith.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37If Martha Jones became a legend, then that's wrong.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40Because my name isn't important. There's someone else.
0:33:40 > 0:33:43And building towards this one moment in time
0:33:43 > 0:33:47where the Doctor's going to be able to use this psychic network
0:33:47 > 0:33:52to bring himself back to full power and sort The Master out.
0:33:52 > 0:33:56Right across the world, one word, just one thought at one moment.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58But with 15 satellites.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00What?
0:34:00 > 0:34:03- The Archangel Network. - A telepathic field,
0:34:03 > 0:34:06binding the whole human race together with every person on earth
0:34:06 > 0:34:10thinking the same thing at the same time. And that word...is Doctor.
0:34:17 > 0:34:22- ALL: Doctor! Doctor!- Doctor!
0:34:22 > 0:34:24- Doctor.- Doctor.
0:34:28 > 0:34:32The one thing you can't do - stop them thinking.
0:34:33 > 0:34:38I think it's just perfect for her and a perfect ending for her, I think.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42But for Donna, it's not about being an action hero.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45She has other skills at her fingertips.
0:34:45 > 0:34:48Did I ever tell you, best temp in Chiswick?
0:34:48 > 0:34:49100 words per minute.
0:34:49 > 0:34:56Donna's clerical skills end up becoming quite important to the future of the universe.
0:34:56 > 0:35:00Oi, you lot. All your stormtroopers and your sonics, rubbish.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02You should have come with me.
0:35:02 > 0:35:09You've got the assembled might of UNIT and Martha Jones
0:35:09 > 0:35:12and everybody else trying to figure out what's going on.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15And Donna just looks through the files.
0:35:15 > 0:35:19I spent years as a temp. I can find my way around an office blindfold.
0:35:19 > 0:35:21The first thing I noticed is an empty file.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24Why, what's inside it? Or what's not inside?
0:35:24 > 0:35:26Sick days.
0:35:26 > 0:35:31There aren't any. Hundreds of people working here and no one's sick.
0:35:31 > 0:35:36Not one hangover, man-flu, sneaky little shopping trip. Nothing, not ever.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38They don't get ill.
0:35:38 > 0:35:43She can't imagine anyone would go through life without claiming the odd sick day.
0:35:43 > 0:35:46So that ends up being the first clue to what is going on.
0:35:46 > 0:35:50- That can't be right.- You've been checking out the building,
0:35:50 > 0:35:55- you should have been checking out the work force.- I can see why he likes you.
0:35:55 > 0:35:58- You are good.- Supertemp.
0:35:58 > 0:36:02Dr Jones, set up a medical post, start examining the workers. I'll get them sent through.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04Come on, Donna. Give me a hand.
0:36:04 > 0:36:09She has to step up because she's left alone in the TARDIS and she doesn't know.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11She doesn't really know if he's coming back.
0:36:11 > 0:36:13PHONE RINGS
0:36:13 > 0:36:18- What's happened, where are you? - Still on earth. But don't worry, I've got my secret weapon.
0:36:18 > 0:36:19- 'And what's that?'- You.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22Somehow, that's not making me happy.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25You know, she is saying, "I can't change a plug."
0:36:25 > 0:36:27Or whatever it is, "I can't mend a fuse."
0:36:27 > 0:36:28I can't even mend a fuse.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31Stop talking about yourself like that. You can do this,
0:36:31 > 0:36:33'I promise.'
0:36:33 > 0:36:37Then there she does the one thing that, you know,
0:36:37 > 0:36:41enables them to defeat the Sontarans, really.
0:36:44 > 0:36:49She disables them with a big old mallet, shot to the back of his neck.
0:36:53 > 0:36:55Back of the neck!
0:36:56 > 0:37:02In The Doctor's Daughter, it is Donna who figures out the numbers on the wall are a big old space date.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04Look at that.
0:37:04 > 0:37:08- It's like the numbers in the tunnels.- No, no, no. But listen.
0:37:08 > 0:37:13I spent six months working as a temp in Hounslow Library and I mastered the Dewey decimal system
0:37:13 > 0:37:16in two days flat. I'm good with numbers.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18- It's staring us in the face! - What is?
0:37:20 > 0:37:21It's the date.
0:37:21 > 0:37:25At the end of the day, she will make the ultimate sacrifice.
0:37:25 > 0:37:30In Turn Left we see her sacrificing herself
0:37:30 > 0:37:34for the future of everyone else.
0:37:35 > 0:37:40That's right. Isn't it? I don't die. If I'd change things, I don't die.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42That's right, isn't it?
0:37:42 > 0:37:47That's not when she's gonna die. She's going to have to.... Well, she has to make the decision to die.
0:37:48 > 0:37:51Please.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59The Doctor will always put his assistants...
0:37:59 > 0:38:03Not intentionally, but he always puts them in some kind of danger.
0:38:03 > 0:38:05And he gets in the danger himself.
0:38:05 > 0:38:07But he will try his utmost to save them.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09# Rescue me
0:38:09 > 0:38:11# Oh, take me in your arms
0:38:11 > 0:38:13# Rescue me
0:38:13 > 0:38:15# I want your tender charms
0:38:15 > 0:38:19# But I'm lonely and I'm blue
0:38:19 > 0:38:22# I need you and your love too
0:38:22 > 0:38:24# Come on and rescue me Rescue me
0:38:24 > 0:38:26# Oh, take me in your arms
0:38:26 > 0:38:28# Rescue me
0:38:28 > 0:38:30# I want your tender charms
0:38:30 > 0:38:35# Cos I'm lonely and I'm blue I need you
0:38:35 > 0:38:37# And your love too
0:38:37 > 0:38:39# Come on and rescue me. #
0:38:41 > 0:38:43Doctor, get me out!
0:38:45 > 0:38:46I think this is my dance.
0:38:48 > 0:38:49Help me!
0:38:53 > 0:38:55# Rescue me! #
0:38:55 > 0:38:56Let me go!
0:39:00 > 0:39:01Now, jump!
0:39:01 > 0:39:03# Rescue me
0:39:03 > 0:39:05# Oh, take me in your arms
0:39:05 > 0:39:06# Rescue me
0:39:06 > 0:39:10# I want your tender charms Cos I'm lonely
0:39:10 > 0:39:12# And I'm blue
0:39:12 > 0:39:15# I need you and your love too
0:39:15 > 0:39:17# Come on and rescue me
0:39:17 > 0:39:21# Did it like that and now we do it like this
0:39:21 > 0:39:22# Did it like that and now we do it like this... #
0:39:22 > 0:39:24Go to your room.
0:39:24 > 0:39:27# Did it like that and now we do it like this
0:39:28 > 0:39:32# Did it like that and now we do it like this. #
0:39:33 > 0:39:34Did you miss me?
0:39:37 > 0:39:41Now, sometimes our man from Gallifrey can go a little too far.
0:39:41 > 0:39:47Often, a good companion is the only one who can bring this time traveller back down to earth.
0:39:52 > 0:39:58Just...promise me one thing.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00Find someone.
0:40:01 > 0:40:04- I don't need anyone.- Yes, you do.
0:40:04 > 0:40:08Cos sometimes I think you need someone to stop you.
0:40:11 > 0:40:12Yeah.
0:40:12 > 0:40:13I think there's something just about
0:40:13 > 0:40:17having someone there for the Doctor to look out for and look after,
0:40:17 > 0:40:21which tempers his excesses in themself, I think.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24Just...
0:40:24 > 0:40:27I suppose it's...you know,
0:40:27 > 0:40:30having another person there gives you an objectivity
0:40:30 > 0:40:31on yourself, I think,
0:40:31 > 0:40:34which is something the Doctor clearly requires.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36It's one of the many necessary functions
0:40:36 > 0:40:40that his travelling companions provide for him, I think.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42Get out the way!
0:40:46 > 0:40:48Rose, get out the way! Now!
0:40:48 > 0:40:49No.
0:40:49 > 0:40:54She's not scared to say no to the Doctor or challenge him.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56I won't let you do this.
0:40:56 > 0:40:58That thing killed hundreds of people.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00It's not the one pointing the gun at me.
0:41:00 > 0:41:04I think that's something he finds quite brilliant about her.
0:41:04 > 0:41:05Because she will say no.
0:41:05 > 0:41:10It couldn't kill van Statten and it couldn't kill me. It's changing.
0:41:10 > 0:41:13And what about you, Doctor?
0:41:13 > 0:41:15What the hell are you changing into?
0:41:18 > 0:41:22I think it's a really important role for the companion
0:41:22 > 0:41:24to be the Doctor's moral guardian, if you like.
0:41:24 > 0:41:26I think there are
0:41:26 > 0:41:31going to be times when the Doctor
0:41:31 > 0:41:34will get quite out of hand, I would have thought.
0:41:34 > 0:41:38My home planet is far away and long since gone.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40But its name lives on.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42Gallifrey.
0:41:43 > 0:41:46They murdered the Racnoss!
0:41:46 > 0:41:48I warned you.
0:41:48 > 0:41:50You did this.
0:41:50 > 0:41:54No! No! Doctor!
0:41:56 > 0:41:57No!
0:41:57 > 0:42:01He's really stopped at the brink of committing genocide by Donna.
0:42:01 > 0:42:07My children!
0:42:07 > 0:42:09Doctor!
0:42:09 > 0:42:10Ah!
0:42:10 > 0:42:12You can stop now.
0:42:12 > 0:42:17My children!
0:42:17 > 0:42:21I think that though quickly the companions come to realise it,
0:42:21 > 0:42:25and perhaps their part is to help him keep perspective.
0:42:25 > 0:42:29Because he's great, but he has got a fury
0:42:29 > 0:42:32that I think needs reining in from time to time.
0:42:32 > 0:42:37Incredible. Ghosts that are not ghosts, but beings from another
0:42:37 > 0:42:42world who can only exist in our realm by inhabiting cadavers.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45Good system - it might work.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48Rose finds the Doctor's approach to his work
0:42:48 > 0:42:51or his mission quite inhumane.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54And at times he can be very cold and alien.
0:42:54 > 0:42:55And that really annoys her.
0:42:55 > 0:42:59You can't let them run around inside dead people.
0:42:59 > 0:43:00Why not? It's like recycling.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03- Seriously, though, you can't. - Seriously, though, I can.
0:43:03 > 0:43:05But it's just...wrong.
0:43:05 > 0:43:07She is part of the human race.
0:43:07 > 0:43:12So when she meets aliens and humans in the same room, she's always
0:43:12 > 0:43:16most likely to feel more sympathy and she's more compassionate
0:43:16 > 0:43:18towards the people that are involved.
0:43:18 > 0:43:22Those bodies were living people, we should respect them - even in death.
0:43:22 > 0:43:23Do you carry a donor card?
0:43:23 > 0:43:25That's different...
0:43:25 > 0:43:28It is different, it's a different morality. Get used to it or go home.
0:43:31 > 0:43:35But, as with all good things, time with the Doctor
0:43:35 > 0:43:36must always come to an end.
0:43:36 > 0:43:40Join Doctor Who's greatest moments for the final farewells
0:43:40 > 0:43:43- of his finest companions.- No!
0:43:49 > 0:43:53The one thing you learn about the people who surround the Doctor,
0:43:53 > 0:43:57or who befriend the Doctor or who become companions to the Doctor,
0:43:57 > 0:43:59it's inevitable they'll leave.
0:43:59 > 0:44:04The sacrifice will be them not returning to the Doctor.
0:44:04 > 0:44:07Rose was a sacrifice, in a sense.
0:44:07 > 0:44:09She was taken to that dimension,
0:44:09 > 0:44:12and the Doctor was part of the cause of that, in a way.
0:44:12 > 0:44:17You have the sacrifice of Captain Jack on Satellite 5.
0:44:17 > 0:44:19Exterminate!
0:44:19 > 0:44:21I kind of figured that.
0:44:22 > 0:44:26You've got a different kind of sacrifice with Donna.
0:44:26 > 0:44:28The Doctor sacrifices his relationship with her
0:44:28 > 0:44:33in order to keep her...sane, you know?
0:44:33 > 0:44:37It's one of the saddest and gut-wrenching moments.
0:44:37 > 0:44:40Oh, Donna Noble. I am so sorry.
0:44:43 > 0:44:45But we had the best of times.
0:44:50 > 0:44:54'The Bad Wolf Bay scene is one that a lot of people talk about'
0:44:54 > 0:44:58and is certainly something that...
0:44:58 > 0:45:00you know, is the culmination of two years of this story
0:45:00 > 0:45:03of the Doctor and Rose, and it's a beautifully written scene,
0:45:03 > 0:45:06'and Billie is so wonderful in it, it's a real favourite of mine.'
0:45:06 > 0:45:10- Where are we? Where did the gap come out?- We're in Norway.
0:45:10 > 0:45:12Norway, right.
0:45:12 > 0:45:15About 50 miles out of Bergen.
0:45:15 > 0:45:18It's called Darlig Ulv Stranden.
0:45:18 > 0:45:21- Dalek?- Darlig.
0:45:21 > 0:45:22It's Norwegian for "bad".
0:45:24 > 0:45:27This translates as Bad Wolf Bay.
0:45:29 > 0:45:30'It was the end of...'
0:45:30 > 0:45:33my first year in the show, which had been
0:45:33 > 0:45:38a very...a big deal for me and had been very emotional in lots of ways.
0:45:38 > 0:45:42Here you are...living a life day after day.
0:45:45 > 0:45:47The one adventure I can never have.
0:45:50 > 0:45:52Am I ever gonna see you again?
0:45:55 > 0:45:57You can't.
0:45:57 > 0:46:01People who are very much... you know, who love each other
0:46:01 > 0:46:03deeply, who could be travelling around the universe together,
0:46:03 > 0:46:07are separated just through trying to save the universe,
0:46:07 > 0:46:09and that makes the tragedy even worse.
0:46:10 > 0:46:12I love you.
0:46:14 > 0:46:16Quite right, too.
0:46:19 > 0:46:22And I suppose...
0:46:24 > 0:46:26..if it's my last chance to say it...
0:46:32 > 0:46:34Rose Tyler...
0:46:40 > 0:46:43'Martha does definitely change, cos she has experienced, and her and
0:46:43 > 0:46:45'her family experienced all the things they did'
0:46:45 > 0:46:47at the end of series three,
0:46:47 > 0:46:50I think that it's one of the reasons she doesn't want
0:46:50 > 0:46:53to travel with the Doctor any more, she needs to be with her family.
0:46:53 > 0:46:55I've spent all these years training to be a doctor,
0:46:55 > 0:46:57now I've got people to look after.
0:46:57 > 0:47:01They saw half the planet slaughtered and they're devastated -
0:47:01 > 0:47:03- I can't leave them.- Course not.
0:47:03 > 0:47:06'When she chooses to leave him,'
0:47:06 > 0:47:10you see a young woman who has grown into herself...
0:47:11 > 0:47:15a young woman who's gone, "I love you...
0:47:15 > 0:47:19"Oh, you don't love me. OK, I have to be grown-up about this
0:47:19 > 0:47:21"and I have to just get on with my life."
0:47:21 > 0:47:23That's a hugely mature thing to do.
0:47:29 > 0:47:31Thank you.
0:47:33 > 0:47:38I think he again unintentionally made her feel a little bit...second best,
0:47:38 > 0:47:41but she's able to kind of stand up tall,
0:47:41 > 0:47:45and I think she realises she needs to maintain standing up tall.
0:47:46 > 0:47:49The scene where Martha leaves, the Doctor's been fully aware
0:47:49 > 0:47:53of what's been going on but has chosen to ignore it, and she calls him on that.
0:47:56 > 0:47:59Cos the thing is, it's like my friend Vicky.
0:47:59 > 0:48:03She lived with this bloke, student housing, five of them, all packed in, and this bloke was called Sean.
0:48:03 > 0:48:09And she loved him. She did, she completely adored him, spent all day long talking about him.
0:48:09 > 0:48:11- Is this going anywhere?- Yes!
0:48:11 > 0:48:14Cos he never looked at her twice.
0:48:14 > 0:48:19I think that's an interesting moment as well, er...
0:48:19 > 0:48:23where the Doctor is forced to admit that he's been insensitive.
0:48:23 > 0:48:30And I told her, I always said to her time and time again, I said, "Get out."
0:48:35 > 0:48:38So this is me, getting out.
0:48:41 > 0:48:46The tragedy of the Doctor and Donna, I think, is that they had such a great time.
0:48:46 > 0:48:48You know, the Doctor had had...
0:48:48 > 0:48:51We had the love story with Rose that didn't work out, we had the unrequited love story
0:48:51 > 0:48:52with Martha that didn't work out,
0:48:52 > 0:48:56and finally he's just travelling the universe with a great mate.
0:48:56 > 0:48:58You are gonna love this! One, two, three...
0:49:00 > 0:49:03- Mmm!- Ah! It's lovely!
0:49:03 > 0:49:09There's no complications, there's no agenda, and they're just seeing the universe and drinking it up.
0:49:09 > 0:49:12And then circumstances conspire against them,
0:49:12 > 0:49:14and Donna,
0:49:14 > 0:49:21although she's ended up saving all of reality by taking on some of the Doctor's persona...
0:49:21 > 0:49:25I thought we'd try the planet Feldspoon, just cos. What a good name, Feldspoon.
0:49:25 > 0:49:30Apparently it's got mountains that sway in the breeze, mountains that move, can you imagine?
0:49:30 > 0:49:34..that will also ultimately kill her, so he has to remove that from her mind.
0:49:34 > 0:49:38You know you could fix that chameleon circuit if you just tried hot-binding the fragment links and superseding
0:49:38 > 0:49:43the binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary...
0:49:43 > 0:49:45binary... I'm fine!
0:49:45 > 0:49:47When he takes me back, after he has had to...
0:49:47 > 0:49:52erase everything from my memory, that version of Donna is dead,
0:49:52 > 0:49:55and I just think it's the most devastating...
0:49:55 > 0:49:59I think it's sadder than if she'd just actually died,
0:49:59 > 0:50:02because just before he wipes her memory, she knows how
0:50:02 > 0:50:07awful that is, because she says, "Please don't, I can't go back," because she sees how far she's come.
0:50:08 > 0:50:09The rest of my life...
0:50:09 > 0:50:12travelling...
0:50:12 > 0:50:15in the TARDIS.
0:50:15 > 0:50:17The Doctor-Donna.
0:50:20 > 0:50:22Oh...
0:50:22 > 0:50:25Oh, my G...
0:50:25 > 0:50:26I can't go back.
0:50:28 > 0:50:30Don't make me go back.
0:50:30 > 0:50:32Doctor...
0:50:32 > 0:50:34Please. Please, don't make me go back!
0:50:34 > 0:50:36Donna...
0:50:38 > 0:50:40The best.
0:50:44 > 0:50:45Goodbye.
0:50:45 > 0:50:48No, no! No, please! Please, no!
0:50:48 > 0:50:49No! No!
0:50:56 > 0:50:58No!
0:50:59 > 0:51:03And then of course she just goes back to a world where...
0:51:03 > 0:51:09the...trivialities of life are all she cares about.
0:51:10 > 0:51:11Don't mind me. Donna.
0:51:12 > 0:51:14John Smith.
0:51:14 > 0:51:16- Mr Smith was just living. - My phone's gone mad -
0:51:16 > 0:51:2132 texts, she's gonna barmy, she's saying, "Planets in the sky!" What have I missed now?!
0:51:21 > 0:51:22Nice to meet you.
0:51:22 > 0:51:27It's very tragic that that uncomplicated friendship has to end that way.
0:51:27 > 0:51:32Not only does Donna...robbed of all the experiences that she'd had,
0:51:32 > 0:51:34but the Doctor is robbed of his best mate.
0:51:34 > 0:51:37How thick do you think I am?! Planets?!
0:51:37 > 0:51:39I'll tell you what that was, Dumbo.
0:51:39 > 0:51:44That's those two-for-one lagers you get down the offie cos you fancy that little man in there with the goatee.
0:51:44 > 0:51:46Yes, you do!
0:51:46 > 0:51:48- I've seen ya!- Donna? I was just going.
0:51:48 > 0:51:50Yeah, see ya.
0:51:50 > 0:51:54When he's telling Wilfred and Sylvia that she can never remember,
0:51:54 > 0:51:59but, you know...there are...universes on the other side of the sky
0:51:59 > 0:52:03that are singing her praises, it's beautiful and heartbreaking.
0:52:03 > 0:52:07I just want you to know that there are worlds out there
0:52:07 > 0:52:09safe in the sky because of her,
0:52:09 > 0:52:13that there are people living in the light
0:52:13 > 0:52:18and singing songs of Donna Noble
0:52:18 > 0:52:20a thousand million light-years away.
