TOP 5 DONNA NOBLE SCENES #2 | asked by passrevoked [See also: top 5 donna quotes | tag essays ]

Anyway, gobsmacking 4.11 rushes today. No kidding, one of the finest pieces of acting I have ever seen - when Catherine realises that she’s going to die. She’s crying with horror. Absolutely perfect. I texted her to say thanks. She’s a very private person, I’m never 100 per cent sure what she thinks about things, but she texted back: ‘I’m so lucky to be doing all this. It’s wonderful to be part of it.’ That made me happy. Very happy. For many hours. - Russell T Davies: The Writer’s Tale

Let’s be real here. Everything about this episode is my favourite thing about this episode, so picking just one scene from Turn Left is a bit ridiculous. I do, however, adore what this scene in particular says about Donna. Because she’s so beautifully, heartbreakingly brave here - brimming with hope and the belief that things can only be better in a world that has the Doctor in it. Then she realises that she’s doomed: that she will have to die to bring this man she has never met back into the world. It’s an utterly terrifying thought for anybody: the destruction of oneself, the lack of a future, the loss of everything you’ve ever known. How many people would keep going at this point? But that’s why Donna Noble is the most important woman in all of creation: because, in a world without her skinny spaceman, the magnificent, brilliant Donna Noble doesn’t stop trying. She doesn’t stop caring, or fighting. No - she dies so that this horrible, broken world can blink out of existence… she sacrifices herself to set the universe right again.
