Donna

Donna Noble never thought she was anything special, that is until she met the Doctor. At first, she turned down the idea of traveling with him, but the sense of adventure had been found. She eventually joined the Doctor going on grand adventures. However, her great adventures ended when she created a meta-crisis version of the Doctor. She had the memory of a Time Lord, although it was killing her. The Doctor made her forget everything. However, her two children with Shaun Noble have been gifted with a similar mind as she once had.

Biography
Donna Noble, an office temp from Chiswick, had an unwelcome introduction to the Doctor when she suddenly appeared inside the TARDIS on her wedding day. A victim of the Empress of the Racnoss’s plans to revive her hibernating offspring, Donna had been dosed with Huon particles by her fiancé Lance, who, she discovered, had never really loved her and was only with her on the Empress’s orders. Lance was contemptuous of Donna’s ignorance of the wider world and her obsession with trivia, celebrity and gossip. As the Doctor quickly realized, though, Lance was wrong to assume Donna was unintelligent – quick-thinking, courageous and brash, Donna refused to be kept out of danger and, crucially, was there to stop the Doctor going too far in defeating the Empress. Having witnessed the creation of the Earth and the destruction of the Racnoss, she quickly recognized how much more there was to the universe, but she baulked at joining the Doctor in the TARDIS – a decision Donna would soon regret.

Saying goodbye to the Doctor on Christmas Day, Donna had vowed to travel the world and make something of her life. But she found that a package tour of Egypt was a poor substitute for adventures with the Doctor and resolved to track him down and take up his offer of going with him in the TARDIS. She moved back in with her mum and granddad, and spent her time following up anything unusual she read about online or in the papers. She looked into UFO sightings, crop circles, sea monsters, and disappearing bees. Eventually, her investigations into Adipose Industries coincided with the Doctor’s own and they were reunited. At first taken aback when she announced her intention to travel with him, the Doctor soon decided that he would enjoy having Donna alongside him, and both were relieved when she made it clear she didn’t fancy him.

The Doctor had warned Donna that life in the TARDIS could be dangerous as well as exciting, which she quickly learned in Pompelii. Donna was not afraid to argue, and firmly told the Doctor that he couldn’t order her around, and they disagreed over whether or not to warn the Pompeians of the impending volcanic eruption from Vesuvius. Donna was uninterested in the Doctor’s description of the event as a ‘fixed point’ in history and wanted to try and save everybody. Yet when they discovered that the Pyroviles and that were holding the eruption back only by causing Vesuvius to explode could the Doctor save the planet, Donna made the decision with the Doctor. They pushed the lever together; causing the eruption that devastated Pompeii and destroyed the Pyroviles. Even then, Donna continued to argue for saving the Caecilius family, and the Doctor ultimately conceded that she was right.

Donna’s willingness to challenge the Doctor’s assumptions was a key part of their relationship – she objected to his cheap shot about slaves having made her clothes, and was first to question whether the Doctor’s influence had turned Martha into a solider. Another defining feature was Donna’s tendency to tease and deflate him, happily ganging up against him with Martha and letting him complete a long farewell speech before confirming that she was just popping home for a visit. Not for the first time, the Doctor had a travelling companion who wanted to stay with him forever.

After the liberation of the Ood-Sphere, Ood Sigma promised that his people would forever sing the song of ‘the DoctorDonna’. Seemingly foreseeing what would happen when the Daleks constructed their Reality Bomb. Ood Sigma was not alone in intimating some terrible future for Donna – a Fortune Teller on Shan Shen fled in terror asking ‘What are you? What will you be?’, and a servant at the Shadow Proclamation was sorry for ‘the loss that is yet to come.’ And, with the walls between realities crumbling, Rose Tyler returned to our universe and explained that a Dimension Cannon had revealed the time lines were all converging on Donna. Donna was about to become part of a complex and unique space-time event. When the Doctor’s excess regeneration energy caused a two-way biological metacrisis between his spare hand and Donna, a new, part-human Doctor was brought into being. But the process also fed back into Donna, remaining inert until an electrical discharge sparked the Time Lord part of her mind into life. She gained all the Doctor’s knowledge and, combining it with her own human imagination, she was able to overcome the Daleks. This knowledge was too much for her human brain, however, and would prove fatal. The only means of saving her was for the Doctor to remove from her mind all her memories of him and everything they had experienced together.

Donna had begun to change as soon as she met the Doctor, losing interest in trivia and gossip as she began to understand the extent of the universe – she had become a better person. Now, she had no knowledge that any of that had ever even existed, and no recollection that she had been, for a moment, the most important woman in the universe. The Doctor last saw Donna gossiping on the phone with one of her friends and wondering how she could have added planets in the sky to the list of events she had missed, along with the Sycorax attack, the Cyberman invasion and Daleks flying over London. She no longer even recognized him, and he warned her family that remembering any of it would kill her.

Yet Donna had already shown that she would always have the potential to do great things when a time beetle altered reality around her so she had never met the Doctor. Without her influence, the Doctor had died facing the Racnoss and was not there to save Earth from future attacks. In this different reality, Donna sacrificed herself to save the Doctor and so the world.
