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

# And your love too | 0:38:35 | 0:38:37 | |
# Come on and rescue me. # | 0:38:37 | 0:38:39 | |
Doctor, get me out! | 0:38:41 | 0:38:43 | |
I think this is my dance. | 0:38:45 | 0:38:46 | |
Help me! | 0:38:48 | 0:38:49 | |
# Rescue me! # | 0:38:53 | 0:38:55 | |
Let me go! | 0:38:55 | 0:38:56 | |
Now, jump! | 0:39:00 | 0:39:01 | |
# Rescue me | 0:39:01 | 0:39:03 | |
# Oh, take me in your arms | 0:39:03 | 0:39:05 | |
# Rescue me | 0:39:05 | 0:39:06 | |

# Did it like that and now we do it like this... # | 0:39:21 | 0:39:22 | |
Go to your room. | 0:39:22 | 0:39:24 | |
# Did it like that and now we do it like this | 0:39:24 | 0:39:27 | |
# Did it like that and now we do it like this. # | 0:39:28 | 0:39:32 | |
Did you miss me? | 0:39:33 | 0:39:34 | |
Now, sometimes our man from Gallifrey can go a little too far. | 0:39:37 | 0:39:41 | |
Often, a good companion is the only one who can bring this time traveller back down to earth. | 0:39:41 | 0:39:47 | |
Just...promise me one thing. | 0:39:52 | 0:39:58 | |
Find someone. | 0:39:58 | 0:40:00 | |
-I don't need anyone. -Yes, you do. | 0:40:01 | 0:40:04 | |
Cos sometimes I think you need someone to stop you. | 0:40:04 | 0:40:08 | |
Yeah. | 0:40:11 | 0:40:12 | |
I think there's something just about | 0:40:12 | 0:40:13 | |
having someone there for the Doctor to look out for and look after, | 0:40:13 | 0:40:17 | |
which tempers his excesses in themself, I think. | 0:40:17 | 0:40:21 | |
Just... | 0:40:21 | 0:40:24 | |
I suppose it's...you know, | 0:40:24 | 0:40:27 | |
having another person there gives you an objectivity | 0:40:27 | 0:40:30 | |
on yourself, I think, | 0:40:30 | 0:40:31 | |
which is something the Doctor clearly requires. | 0:40:31 | 0:40:34 | |
It's one of the many necessary functions | 0:40:34 | 0:40:36 | |
that his travelling companions provide for him, I think. | 0:40:36 | 0:40:40 | |
Get out the way! | 0:40:40 | 0:40:42 | |
Rose, get out the way! Now! | 0:40:46 | 0:40:48 | |
No. | 0:40:48 | 0:40:49 | |
She's not scared to say no to the Doctor or challenge him. | 0:40:49 | 0:40:54 | |
I won't let you do this. | 0:40:54 | 0:40:56 | |
That thing killed hundreds of people. | 0:40:56 | 0:40:58 | |
It's not the one pointing the gun at me. | 0:40:58 | 0:41:00 | |
I think that's something he finds quite brilliant about her. | 0:41:00 | 0:41:04 | |
Because she will say no. | 0:41:04 | 0:41:05 | |
It couldn't kill van Statten and it couldn't kill me. It's changing. | 0:41:05 | 0:41:10 | |
And what about you, Doctor? | 0:41:10 | 0:41:13 | |
What the hell are you changing into? | 0:41:13 | 0:41:15 | |
I think it's a really important role for the companion | 0:41:18 | 0:41:22 | |
to be the Doctor's moral guardian, if you like. | 0:41:22 | 0:41:24 | |
I think there are | 0:41:24 | 0:41:26 | |
going to be times when the Doctor | 0:41:26 | 0:41:31 | |
will get quite out of hand, I would have thought. | 0:41:31 | 0:41:34 | |
My home planet is far away and long since gone. | 0:41:34 | 0:41:38 | |
But its name lives on. | 0:41:38 | 0:41:40 | |
Gallifrey. | 0:41:40 | 0:41:42 | |
They murdered the Racnoss! | 0:41:43 | 0:41:46 | |
I warned you. | 0:41:46 | 0:41:48 | |
You did this. | 0:41:48 | 0:41:50 | |
No! No! Doctor! | 0:41:50 | 0:41:54 | |
No! | 0:41:56 | 0:41:57 | |
He's really stopped at the brink of committing genocide by Donna. | 0:41:57 | 0:42:01 | |
My children! | 0:42:01 | 0:42:07 | |
Doctor! | 0:42:07 | 0:42:09 | |
Ah! | 0:42:09 | 0:42:10 | |
You can stop now. | 0:42:10 | 0:42:12 | |
My children! | 0:42:12 | 0:42:17 | |
I think that though quickly the companions come to realise it, | 0:42:17 | 0:42:21 | |
and perhaps their part is to help him keep perspective. | 0:42:21 | 0:42:25 | |
Because he's great, but he has got a fury | 0:42:25 | 0:42:29 | |
that I think needs reining in from time to time. | 0:42:29 | 0:42:32 | |
Incredible. Ghosts that are not ghosts, but beings from another | 0:42:32 | 0:42:37 | |
world who can only exist in our realm by inhabiting cadavers. | 0:42:37 | 0:42:42 | |
Good system - it might work. | 0:42:42 | 0:42:45 | |
Rose finds the Doctor's approach to his work | 0:42:45 | 0:42:48 | |
or his mission quite inhumane. | 0:42:48 | 0:42:51 | |
And at times he can be very cold and alien. | 0:42:51 | 0:42:54 | |
And that really annoys her. | 0:42:54 | 0:42:55 | |
You can't let them run around inside dead people. | 0:42:55 | 0:42:59 | |
Why not? It's like recycling. | 0:42:59 | 0:43:00 | |
-Seriously, though, you can't. -Seriously, though, I can. | 0:43:00 | 0:43:03 | |
But it's just...wrong. | 0:43:03 | 0:43:05 | |
She is part of the human race. | 0:43:05 | 0:43:07 | |
So when she meets aliens and humans in the same room, she's always | 0:43:07 | 0:43:12 | |
most likely to feel more sympathy and she's more compassionate | 0:43:12 | 0:43:16 | |
towards the people that are involved. | 0:43:16 | 0:43:18 | |
Those bodies were living people, we should respect them - even in death. | 0:43:18 | 0:43:22 | |
Do you carry a donor card? | 0:43:22 | 0:43:23 | |
That's different... | 0:43:23 | 0:43:25 | |
It is different, it's a different morality. Get used to it or go home. | 0:43:25 | 0:43:28 | |
But, as with all good things, time with the Doctor | 0:43:31 | 0:43:35 | |
must always come to an end. | 0:43:35 | 0:43:36 | |
Join Doctor Who's greatest moments for the final farewells | 0:43:36 | 0:43:40 | |
-of his finest companions. -No! | 0:43:40 | 0:43:43 | |
The one thing you learn about the people who surround the Doctor, | 0:43:49 | 0:43:53 | |
or who befriend the Doctor or who become companions to the Doctor, | 0:43:53 | 0:43:57 | |
it's inevitable they'll leave. | 0:43:57 | 0:43:59 | |
The sacrifice will be them not returning to the Doctor. | 0:43:59 | 0:44:04 | |
Rose was a sacrifice, in a sense. | 0:44:04 | 0:44:07 | |
She was taken to that dimension, | 0:44:07 | 0:44:09 | |
and the Doctor was part of the cause of that, in a way. | 0:44:09 | 0:44:12 | |
You have the sacrifice of Captain Jack on Satellite 5. | 0:44:12 | 0:44:17 | |
Exterminate! | 0:44:17 | 0:44:19 | |
I kind of figured that. | 0:44:19 | 0:44:21 | |
You've got a different kind of sacrifice with Donna. | 0:44:22 | 0:44:26 | |
The Doctor sacrifices his relationship with her | 0:44:26 | 0:44:28 | |
in order to keep her...sane, you know? | 0:44:28 | 0:44:33 | |
It's one of the saddest and gut-wrenching moments. | 0:44:33 | 0:44:37 | |
Oh, Donna Noble. I am so sorry. | 0:44:37 | 0:44:40 | |
But we had the best of times. | 0:44:43 | 0:44:45 | |
'The Bad Wolf Bay scene is one that a lot of people talk about' | 0:44:50 | 0:44:54 | |
and is certainly something that... | 0:44:54 | 0:44:58 | |
you know, is the culmination of two years of this story | 0:44:58 | 0:45:00 | |
of the Doctor and Rose, and it's a beautifully written scene, | 0:45:00 | 0:45:03 | |
'and Billie is so wonderful in it, it's a real favourite of mine.' | 0:45:03 | 0:45:06 | |
-Where are we? Where did the gap come out? -We're in Norway. | 0:45:06 | 0:45:10 | |
Norway, right. | 0:45:10 | 0:45:12 | |
About 50 miles out of Bergen. | 0:45:12 | 0:45:15 | |
It's called Darlig Ulv Stranden. | 0:45:15 | 0:45:18 | |
-Dalek? -Darlig. | 0:45:18 | 0:45:21 | |
It's Norwegian for "bad". | 0:45:21 | 0:45:22 | |
This translates as Bad Wolf Bay. | 0:45:24 | 0:45:27 | |
'It was the end of...' | 0:45:29 | 0:45:30 | |
my first year in the show, which had been | 0:45:30 | 0:45:33 | |
a very...a big deal for me and had been very emotional in lots of ways. | 0:45:33 | 0:45:38 | |
Here you are...living a life day after day. | 0:45:38 | 0:45:42 | |
The one adventure I can never have. | 0:45:45 | 0:45:47 | |
Am I ever gonna see you again? | 0:45:50 | 0:45:52 | |
You can't. | 0:45:55 | 0:45:57 | |
People who are very much... you know, who love each other | 0:45:57 | 0:46:01 | |
deeply, who could be travelling around the universe together, | 0:46:01 | 0:46:03 | |
are separated just through trying to save the universe, | 0:46:03 | 0:46:07 | |
and that makes the tragedy even worse. | 0:46:07 | 0:46:09 | |
I love you. | 0:46:10 | 0:46:12 | |
Quite right, too. | 0:46:14 | 0:46:16 | |
And I suppose... | 0:46:19 | 0:46:22 | |
..if it's my last chance to say it... | 0:46:24 | 0:46:26 | |
Rose Tyler... | 0:46:32 | 0:46:34 | |
'Martha does definitely change, cos she has experienced, and her and | 0:46:40 | 0:46:43 | |
'her family experienced all the things they did' | 0:46:43 | 0:46:45 | |
at the end of series three, | 0:46:45 | 0:46:47 | |
I think that it's one of the reasons she doesn't want | 0:46:47 | 0:46:50 | |
to travel with the Doctor any more, she needs to be with her family. | 0:46:50 | 0:46:53 | |
I've spent all these years training to be a doctor, | 0:46:53 | 0:46:55 | |
now I've got people to look after. | 0:46:55 | 0:46:57 | |
They saw half the planet slaughtered and they're devastated - | 0:46:57 | 0:47:01 | |
-I can't leave them. -Course not. | 0:47:01 | 0:47:03 | |
'When she chooses to leave him,' | 0:47:03 | 0:47:06 | |
you see a young woman who has grown into herself... | 0:47:06 | 0:47:10 | |
a young woman who's gone, "I love you... | 0:47:11 | 0:47:15 | |
"Oh, you don't love me. OK, I have to be grown-up about this | 0:47:15 | 0:47:19 | |
"and I have to just get on with my life." | 0:47:19 | 0:47:21 | |
That's a hugely mature thing to do. | 0:47:21 | 0:47:23 | |
Thank you. | 0:47:29 | 0:47:31 | |
I think he again unintentionally made her feel a little bit...second best, | 0:47:33 | 0:47:38 | |
but she's able to kind of stand up tall, | 0:47:38 | 0:47:41 | |
and I think she realises she needs to maintain standing up tall. | 0:47:41 | 0:47:45 | |
The scene where Martha leaves, the Doctor's been fully aware | 0:47:46 | 0:47:49 | |
of what's been going on but has chosen to ignore it, and she calls him on that. | 0:47:49 | 0:47:53 | |
Cos the thing is, it's like my friend Vicky. | 0:47:56 | 0:47:59 | |
She lived with this bloke, student housing, five of them, all packed in, and this bloke was called Sean. | 0:47:59 | 0:48:03 | |
And she loved him. She did, she completely adored him, spent all day long talking about him. | 0:48:03 | 0:48:09 | |
-Is this going anywhere? -Yes! | 0:48:09 | 0:48:11 | |
Cos he never looked at her twice. | 0:48:11 | 0:48:14 | |
I think that's an interesting moment as well, er... | 0:48:14 | 0:48:19 | |
where the Doctor is forced to admit that he's been insensitive. | 0:48:19 | 0:48:23 | |
And I told her, I always said to her time and time again, I said, "Get out." | 0:48:23 | 0:48:30 | |
So this is me, getting out. | 0:48:35 | 0:48:38 | |
The tragedy of the Doctor and Donna, I think, is that they had such a great time. | 0:48:41 | 0:48:46 | |
You know, the Doctor had had... | 0:48:46 | 0:48:48 | |
We had the love story with Rose that didn't work out, we had the unrequited love story | 0:48:48 | 0:48:51 | |
with Martha that didn't work out, | 0:48:51 | 0:48:52 | |
and finally he's just travelling the universe with a great mate. | 0:48:52 | 0:48:56 | |
You are gonna love this! One, two, three... | 0:48:56 | 0:48:58 | |
-Mmm! -Ah! It's lovely! | 0:49:00 | 0:49:03 | |
There's no complications, there's no agenda, and they're just seeing the universe and drinking it up. | 0:49:03 | 0:49:09 | |
And then circumstances conspire against them, | 0:49:09 | 0:49:12 | |
and Donna, | 0:49:12 | 0:49:14 | |
although she's ended up saving all of reality by taking on some of the Doctor's persona... | 0:49:14 | 0:49:21 | |
I thought we'd try the planet Feldspoon, just cos. What a good name, Feldspoon. | 0:49:21 | 0:49:25 | |
Apparently it's got mountains that sway in the breeze, mountains that move, can you imagine? | 0:49:25 | 0:49:30 | |
..that will also ultimately kill her, so he has to remove that from her mind. | 0:49:30 | 0:49:34 | |
You know you could fix that chameleon circuit if you just tried hot-binding the fragment links and superseding | 0:49:34 | 0:49:38 | |
the binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary binary... | 0:49:38 | 0:49:43 | |
binary... I'm fine! | 0:49:43 | 0:49:45 | |
When he takes me back, after he has had to... | 0:49:45 | 0:49:47 | |
erase everything from my memory, that version of Donna is dead, | 0:49:47 | 0:49:52 | |
and I just think it's the most devastating... | 0:49:52 | 0:49:55 | |
I think it's sadder than if she'd just actually died, | 0:49:55 | 0:49:59 | |
because just before he wipes her memory, she knows how | 0:49:59 | 0:50:02 | |
awful that is, because she says, "Please don't, I can't go back," because she sees how far she's come. | 0:50:02 | 0:50:07 | |
The rest of my life... | 0:50:08 | 0:50:09 | |
travelling... | 0:50:09 | 0:50:12 | |
in the TARDIS. | 0:50:12 | 0:50:15 | |
The Doctor-Donna. | 0:50:15 | 0:50:17 | |
Oh... | 0:50:20 | 0:50:22 | |
Oh, my G... | 0:50:22 | 0:50:25 | |
I can't go back. | 0:50:25 | 0:50:26 | |
Don't make me go back. | 0:50:28 | 0:50:30 | |
Doctor... | 0:50:30 | 0:50:32 | |
Please. Please, don't make me go back! | 0:50:32 | 0:50:34 | |
Donna... | 0:50:34 | 0:50:36 | |
The best. | 0:50:38 | 0:50:40 | |
Goodbye. | 0:50:44 | 0:50:45 | |
No, no! No, please! Please, no! | 0:50:45 | 0:50:48 | |
No! No! | 0:50:48 | 0:50:49 | |
No! | 0:50:56 | 0:50:58 | |
And then of course she just goes back to a world where... | 0:50:59 | 0:51:03 | |
the...trivialities of life are all she cares about. | 0:51:03 | 0:51:09 | |
Don't mind me. Donna. | 0:51:10 | 0:51:11 | |
John Smith. | 0:51:12 | 0:51:14 | |
-Mr Smith was just living. -My phone's gone mad - | 0:51:14 | 0:51:16 | |
32 texts, she's gonna barmy, she's saying, "Planets in the sky!" What have I missed now?! | 0:51:16 | 0:51:21 | |
Nice to meet you. | 0:51:21 | 0:51:22 | |
It's very tragic that that uncomplicated friendship has to end that way. | 0:51:22 | 0:51:27 | |
Not only does Donna...robbed of all the experiences that she'd had, | 0:51:27 | 0:51:32 | |
but the Doctor is robbed of his best mate. | 0:51:32 | 0:51:34 | |
How thick do you think I am?! Planets?! | 0:51:34 | 0:51:37 | |
I'll tell you what that was, Dumbo. | 0:51:37 | 0:51:39 | |
That's those two-for-one lagers you get down the offie cos you fancy that little man in there with the goatee. | 0:51:39 | 0:51:44 | |
Yes, you do! | 0:51:44 | 0:51:46 | |
-I've seen ya! -Donna? I was just going. | 0:51:46 | 0:51:48 | |
Yeah, see ya. | 0:51:48 | 0:51:50 | |
When he's telling Wilfred and Sylvia that she can never remember, | 0:51:50 | 0:51:54 | |
but, you know...there are...universes on the other side of the sky | 0:51:54 | 0:51:59 | |
that are singing her praises, it's beautiful and heartbreaking. | 0:51:59 | 0:52:03 | |
I just want you to know that there are worlds out there | 0:52:03 | 0:52:07 | |
safe in the sky because of her, | 0:52:07 | 0:52:09 | |
that there are people living in the light | 0:52:09 | 0:52:13 | |
and singing songs of Donna Noble | 0:52:13 | 0:52:18 | |
a thousand million light-years away. | 0:52:18 | 0:52:20 | |
They will never forget her... | 0:52:23 | 0:52:27 | |
..while she can never remember. | 0:52:27 | 0:52:29 | |
How can we ever forget the Doctor's fantastic companions? | 0:52:30 | 0:52:35 | |
Let's have one last look at some of their greatest moments. | 0:52:35 | 0:52:38 | |
How long are you gonna stay with me? | 0:52:38 | 0:52:41 | |
Forever. | 0:52:41 | 0:52:42 | |
# You and I, we were one | 0:52:42 | 0:52:44 | |
# And I swore I'd stay forever | 0:52:44 | 0:52:48 | |
# But they say all good things come to an end... # | 0:52:48 | 0:52:51 | |
We were too late. | 0:52:51 | 0:52:53 | |
-# ..My friend... # -I bloody love you! | 0:52:53 | 0:52:56 | |
# ..Now it's time to move on | 0:52:56 | 0:52:58 | |
# But don't think that this is easy | 0:52:58 | 0:53:01 | |
# Cos it's hard to be leaving you behind... # | 0:53:01 | 0:53:06 | |
I just wanna tell you you were fantastic. | 0:53:06 | 0:53:08 | |
# ..Oh So if you believe | 0:53:11 | 0:53:15 | |
# Say a prayer for me | 0:53:15 | 0:53:18 | |
# I won't be here tomorrow There's somewhere I gotta be... # | 0:53:18 | 0:53:23 | |
Come back! | 0:53:23 | 0:53:26 | |
# ..The things you want to say | 0:53:26 | 0:53:27 | |
# Save 'em for another day | 0:53:27 | 0:53:31 | |
# Cos I can hear the angels calling | 0:53:31 | 0:53:35 | |
# Angels calling for me... # | 0:53:35 | 0:53:38 | |
-Martha Jones, you saved the world. -Yes, I did. | 0:53:38 | 0:53:42 | |
I spent a lot of time with you thinking I was second best, but do you know what? I am good. | 0:53:42 | 0:53:47 | |
Hmm. | 0:53:47 | 0:53:49 | |
Right, then. Bye. | 0:53:50 | 0:53:53 | |
# ..Oh So if you believe | 0:53:56 | 0:54:00 | |

# Cos I can hear the angels calling | 0:54:16 | 0:54:20 | |
# Angels calling for me... # | 0:54:20 | 0:54:23 | |
You had to go and fall in love with a human...that wasn't me. | 0:54:23 | 0:54:28 | |
Travelling with you... | 0:54:28 | 0:54:31 | |
I love it. | 0:54:31 | 0:54:32 | |
He's just... | 0:54:32 | 0:54:34 | |
dazzling! | 0:54:34 | 0:54:35 | |
# Oh So if you believe | 0:54:41 | 0:54:46 | |
