Donna Noble (Catherine Tate) looks great in that Press Picture, i can't wait to see her on the show again.
I thought 'The Runaway Bride' was a good comic relief for christmas, but at the same time was a really good episode.

I can't wait to see her interact with Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman).

I think i might watch 'The Runaway Bride' again tonight.

Yeah I can't wait to see the new series with CT/DN!

Only 4 months to wait before we get to see her in action (in the next time trailer of VOTD)...

Nice to see there are at least two people who haven't committed suicide at the thought of Donna being a companion...

Donna is a great choice, whoever doesnt think this are just hypocrites, its the same as when Freema Agyeman joined. there was more controversy and moaning when Billie Piper was chosen!

Catherine Tate all the way!!!!!!! Not in a sexual way, or is it

i can't wait for CT to join the show - i think she will be a welcome addition and her character should definitely have grown since last year's xmas special. I though she looked great in the press pic as well.

Yes, I am also looking forward to see how her character has changed, and how she interacts with DW.

I'm also looking forward to that more than ample bosom .....

Catherine Tate is a talented actress, in TRB she was excellent, in the series i think she will be more considerate to other people and will be a very welcome addition to the list of favourite companions.

Catherine Tate all the way yet again!

I Love her so much!

Yep, I'm looking forward to seeing the lovely CT appear as a regular companion too. Admittedly, Donna was a bit loud in TRB, but she quietened down by the end of it.

I'm looking forward to her too; I think she is going to be a really interesting companion.

He'll ask Kylie/Astrid at the end if he wants to go with her -- she'll say no.

Then, In July 08 -- It will be announced that Catherine Tate is only doing 5 episodes of series 5 -- and the next day it will be revealed that KM will be the new assistant for ALL of series 5...

whateveeerrrr. She is not going to be a Rose Tyler or Martha Jones. I'm sorry you can throw all the 'Catherine tate haters' threads at me but I will never be a fan. When Rose left I was sad but was interested to see this new 'Freema' assistant but with Tate I am really dissapointed. All I can say is Please do not rope the scumbag general public into Doctor Who. Because that is what the writers are doing. They are forgetting the fans and thinking of the income. I fear the quality of writing will go down hill. Before we now it we will be witnessing 'Sylvester McCoy' episodes again (The Liqourice Allsort bad guy was the best). I am really annoyed with the writers on this decision, the writers who say 'we have been big Doctor Who fans since we where young kids' are selling out. Don't get me wrong I don't hate Catherine Tate. I think she is a very funny comedian I just think it is pointless and wrong to cast her as an assistant. The writers are idiots. They could easily cast another unknown without loss to ratings (Freema was a good example).

I can argue allday with you guys about this but I will watch Doctor Who with Catherine Tate and I will think some episodes will be legendery. However Catherine Tate would not be my first choice

I bet Billie Piper wasnt your 1st choice either, don't be such a hypocrite, give Catherine Tate a chance, if you don't like her after series 4, then you can moan as much as you want.

It didn't take long for someone to turn this into yet another "I don't like CT" argument (despite the rather obvious title).

You could say the writers were doing this from series 1 casting a pop singer for the assistant but you and i among others were dubious about Billie so don't go saying Tate will be bad or do then you will be happily surprised when you watch the first episode of series 4.

I'm really looking forward to them casting someone who isn't in love with the doctor. Catherine Tate isn't being cast because she is a popular comedian, she's being cast because she is a good actress, and it's difficult to judge Donna Noble on a first meeting with the doctor in TRB.

I agree. The Doctor needs a companion who isn't in love with him, who can just be a good friend.
