David Tennant and Catherine Tate do Shakespeare - The Graham Norton Show, preview - BBC One

[@MyoticTesseract]

This is why Catherine Tate played one of, if not the best companions in Whovian history.

[@jonitaylor3125]

Most people hated donna but I loved her she showed everyone is special and is worth something.

[@user36able]

Damn straight. Their season together was one of my favourites of New Who

[@benphillips1454]

I don't think I appreciated Donna fully until I was watching through the series a second time.

[@oo0Spyder0oo]

The best companion for sure and no mean feat after Piper's fantastic effort also.

[@Durwood71]

I loved her character. Donna Noble was smart and independent and didn't waste her time swooning over the Doctor. For a time, there was a real woman on the TARDIS instead of someone with the mentality of a girl.

These two people are just brilliant. David jumping up the couch because he can just almost remember his lines and Catherine 10 seconds later "I won!"

Catherine to David, standing on the sofa: *“You’re doing that voice”* I love them so much omg 😂 it’s like the doctor and Donna but as normal people

[@jessicaronald8971]

What did she mean, you’re doing that voice?

[@sarcasticdino]

@@jessicaronald8971 Tate and Tennant did a modern stage play of "much ado about nothing" which is the book being held by Graham. They were trying to remember their lines, and in the play, during that scene, if i remember correectly, david as his character has to pretend to be another person. You can find clips of it on youtube, he's wearing a pig nose and a huge wig, and he's doing a very weird high pitch voice.

[@iiiiitsmagreta1240]

heh, "normal" 😆💞

[@taichistudent]

@@sarcasticdino Yes! It's a masked ball type of party and Benedick is dressed as a woman speaking in a high-pitched voice. I always wondered what voice Catherine was referring to, but I have just watched a clip of that scene in the play and now it all makes sense.

And then Catherine says "You're doing that voice"

[@maritimus_]

TheHalbain what voice is she talking about?

[@CodeAndGin]

Shinai Jones I dunno, when David goes all high pitched? I just thought it was funny.

[@MusicIsMyLife417]

Shinai Jones TheHalbain Catherine says "Don't do it in that voice." In the play, they're at this party and everyone's dressed up and wearing masks/disguises. Benedick (David's character) has on a blond curly wig, huge sunglasses and a pig nose and he's changed his voice and is talking in a high pitched tone instead of his normal voice. Catherine most likely said "Don't do it in that voice" to prevent spoilers :)

[@MaryJoeCCS]

MusicIsMyLife417 I actually think she said "you do it in that voice" to give him a hint.....

[@JessCaron]

They are Ten and Donna in real life.

[@Zacho789]

Stephenie Bowen That bit of the play Benedict (I'm spelling it this way to prevent sniggering children) was speaking in a different voice so I think she was giving a hint to what bit of the play it was.

Zacho789 I know but it is funny thats why I pointed it out

[@Zacho789]

Stephenie Bowen You did put a question mark after it so I thought you were asking a question.

They're at a masked ball and both Benedick and Beatrice are crossdressing. Benedick is hiding his face from her, however, and he starts doing this really weird high-pitch "feminine" voice so she won't know it's him. As a result, Beatrice roasts Benedick badly enough that he doesn't want to move the next day (I took her past the endurance of a block! My very visor was gaining life to try and respond to her!")
