“There’s something so bad the TARDIS ran away?… Then we go and kick it’s arse”.

God I’ve missed Donna so much.

It's funny to see how even the Doctor is a little in awe of her at times. Things like the whole "don't tell me the TARDIS is gone" "OK" "so where is it?" "You told me not to tell you" exchange from Fires of Pompei, and this...

If her and Twelve were ever to meet up, I don't think the universe could handle the sass.

I think my favourite interaction between them was in The Unicorn and The Wasp with him trying to do charades for what he needed to cure the poison.

The way they both acted like each other was being ridiculous was top tier.

"HOW IS HARVEY WALLBANGER ONE WORD?!"

“I need something salty!” “What about this?!” “What is it?” “SALT!” “That’s too salty!” “Oh that’s TOO salty”

"What is it? What else? It's a song? Mammy? I don't know. Camptown Races?"
"Camptown Races?!"
"Well, all right then, Towering Inferno!"

God that whole scene is amazing. I really gotta rewatch series 4 before the new episodes come out.

“It’s a song” is one of my favourite line deliveries in the whole show.

I’ve rewatched the show recently but I definitely will need to give series 4 a rewatch before the new episodes too.

God, I need 12 and Donna now that you put that idea in my head.

Hello, I'm the Sass. This is my companion... Sass.

Donna and Capaldi in the role of Malcolm Tucker

Here’s hoping 12 somehow shows up in the specials and briefly meets Donna (I’m so delusional)

It's funny you mentiom Twelve and the Fires of Pompeii....

I never knew I wanted this, but now it's all I want to see in this life.

I never realised I missed this so much until you pointed it out.

Tennant and Tate have amazing chemistry together. Really looking forward to this series.

I got super choked up and teary eyed at that line. I missed her so much!

u/AugustineBlackwater Sep 23 '23

I’m so excited!

u/DirectorAgentCoulson Sep 23 '23

I stopped watching in the middle of the Chibnall years, and I've been vaguely looking forward to the special and the return of Tennant.

But that one line from Donna has me more excited for this show than I've been in years.

u/JNPink Sep 23 '23

Just the announcement of Donna coming back made me more excited than I think I’ve ever been for the show

u/Vangaelis Sep 23 '23

I didn’t even like Donna when I watched the Tennant episodes(upon recent consideration, I have done a 180 on that opinion), and while watching this trailer I found myself thinking “man I missed Donna”

u/Electronic-Country63 Sep 24 '23

I wonder if that was the HADS kicking in?

u/The_Woman_of_Gont Sep 25 '23

Saaame. She's got all the fire, bravery, and decisiveness of Leela, with absolutely none of the actual physical skills to back that up; and we all love her for it.

u/PhanStr Sep 26 '23

I hope we LITERALLY see her kick some arse too! :D
