failwhale34 season 4 Christmas special, hmm, oh that’s the titanic, what did you think

[@QHP-t9j]

Give me a shout out bro?

[@hiddenassassin3233]

The reason why the doctor asked donna to travel with him was because he is extremely lonely and he needs someone to be there with him and with all the people he has lost, he's gained the ability to move on.

[@zachariousmccool5768]

So very true am rewatching the whole show with failwhale and his reactions are the best (from the future from season 11......12 is not on dvd yet) The Doctor is my hero......I never had one before this show but The Doctor is who I strive to be......never cowardly....no weapons.....speech is his weapon......The Doctor is just the best and I love seeing failwhale fall in love with the show

[@GeorgeRadcliffe]

As much as I love Rose there are some equally amazing companions coming up in the next few seasons, keep an open mind

[@susu_m]

I live rose with eccleston a little more. Donna is my favorite companion with tennant. Amy with Matt Smith. just like the doctor, we all have our preferences 😊

[@eugenegrewing2587]

The Doctor doesn't like to be alone because he loses touch with his humanity and he knows it. That's why he always likes to have a companion.

[@quietdemon8138]

Eugene Grewing it’s a fair and character related arc with him ruthlessly killing the Racnoss and then allowing the adipose to live

[@gwinnellheald8592]

@@quietdemon8138 the racnoss / adipose comparison always bothered me. The adipose were harmless once they were born. The racnoss were literally world eaters. They would have consumed the planet.

[@paullyboy1970]

Yeah, the series producer Russell T Davies DELIBERATELY wrote Donna as a nearly-companion here. Someone not up to the standard of Rose... so that when you eventually DO meet the new regular companion, you go “Ah yes! She’s not Rose, but she’s worthy to join the Doctor just like Donna just missed out on being good enough.” Russell was SO clever.

[@Kayta-Linda]

And then Donna became THE best companion ever.

To be fir, at this point, he doesn't know what Donna becomes. To quote Rose when she was talking to Pete, "You have no idea there even exists."

[@stevesmith5883]

I think lots of people hated Donna when she first appeared, especially people who had no idea how her character develops, such as him or those watching it on air. Fans were still not over Rose and were like "who the hell is this", especially with all her jokes. I personally know people who hated Donna in this ep, but then she became thier favourite new who compainion in S4.

[@allthingspaper3247]

He USUALLY goes for female companions though when he’s asked he doesn’t like to admit it. K9 used to be his companion.

[@TheWeepingDalek]

Jamie McCribbon

[@allthingspaper3247]

Koba yeah him too but he doesn’t know who he is. Which is why I mentioned k9 because he knows who k9 is

[@DrTenochtitlan]

Mickey certainly qualifies as a companion, at least for a little while! He went to the SS Madame de Pompadour in the 51st century, and of course went to a parallel dimension!

[@daffy8995]

I always liked this episode. I thought Donna was hilarious, and felt really sorry for her when Lance said the fact that she loved him is what made it so easy. Poor Donna. And The Doctor scared me a bit when he was killing off all those spider babies! Damn! And I was absolutely amazed to find out that was Sarah Parish under all that makeup.

[@kathyrose8750]

Donna Nobel! Such a great example of a companion (however short her time was) that just formed a friendship with the Doctor, rather than it getting romantic, like it always seemed to especially with 10.

[@rememberme3619]

I like Donna, yes she’s a bit shouty, but she does grow when I see her.

Fun fact the reason the TARDIS spins is cause in the 60s they wanted a shot of it flying over some water so they put a model on some string and they couldn't get it to stop spinning, so that just became a thing.

[@Alfwin]

There were at least 8 male companions in Classic Who: Ian Chesterton, Steven Taylor, Ben Jackson, Jamie McCrimmon, Harry Sullivan, Adric, and Vislor Turlough. K-9 and Kamelion are arguably not male, being robots; and Mike Yates, John Benton, and Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart arguably weren't companions, since they didn't actually travel in the TARDIS despite being regular characters. You've already seen 3 male companions as well: Mickey Smith, Adam Mitchell, and Jack Harkness.

[@rachell4973]

I would not count Adam.

[@HuntingViolets]

@@rachell4973 He was a companion briefly. If he had behaved differently, he would have been around longer. A guest, if you prefer, but I would count him.

[@foolmoon64]

Eh she is the worst companion tbh. All the ones after her are better, especially Donna. Donna is the best 💖

[@AndrewTurnbullwhitephoenix]

Just an fyi, the reason they don't get sucked out the TARDIS is because there is like a forcefield around the tardis that has air and gravity so people can even be outside holding onto it and be okay

Andrew Turnbull he knows. The episode told him when Donna asks him why were breathing. He just deleted his reaction scene to it for copyright because clips too long can get him a copyright strike. He knows why

1:15. Your page's text refers to it as, "Season 3, Episode 0", while you just said that it was, "Season 2, Episode 14".

[@mr.scarlo2234]

All depends, as in the UK there's not really "Episode 0", even if you have a special prior to main series, we'd call it "Episode X". The only Episode 14s that exist are "The Next Doctor" and "The Day of the Doctor".

[@emaloney2211]

Rose and Donna were at a stalemate in their lives when the Doctor appeared. The difference is that Rose literally abandoned her mum and boyfriend and revelled in the danger, even when people around her were dying. Donna, who didn’t want to be there in the Tardis, told the Doctor to stop because although the villain was being defeated doesn’t mean she wanted the children or even Lance to die, cos it doesn’t make them any different to the antagonists. The Doctor realised that he needed someone like that to stop him going to far cos Rose would have totally gone for that. Donna may have refused but she was being practical and knew that life with the Doctor was dangerous and not always in an exciting way. Her experience made her realise that she was capable of new things and was going to be more open to new stuff. Not saying that you need to get over Rose just a reminder that not all companions are going to be like that.

[@MavenCree]

Since you're not watching - to answer your question, Torchwood 1 is gone. Almost every person who worked in that building (about 800 people) got turned into a Cyberman (and then got sucked into the void) or were killed. The building has been demolished. Torchwood 2 disappeared years ago (literally - no one can find it) Torchwood 3 is in Cardiff Wales, only has about 5 employees and mostly just handles things that fall through that rift in time and space (remember the Charles Dickens episode - that rift is still there). This is the location the Torchwood TV show is based on and is now the headquarters. Torchwood 4 is run by a weird man all by himself up in Scotland. So Torchwood no longer has giant universe ending cannons and only employs about 6 people in total now.
