Doctor Who’s Tate and Tennant are back in 60th special trailer

You remember? Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary special well. Mostly, I remember how many bits with Paul McGann, Sylvester McCoy, Colin Baker, Peter Davison, and the rest of the returning Doctor actors just didn’t land for me. Christopher Eccleston was my first choice! I didn’t know these Doctors! The show just wanted me to be interested in these guys!

The following is a list of the most recent and relevant articles. Doctor Who’s three 60th anniversary specials air this November (on the BBC and, outside the U.K. and Ireland, on Disney Plus), it will finally be my turn to cry about some actors that young Doctor WhoDavid Tennant will reprise his role as Donna Noble and David Tate, who played the Doctor, has little emotional connection to fans. It’s brilliant for Tennant Whovians, including me. Not to mention the solid chemistry between Tate and Tennant.

But it’s also about an unanticipated resolution for Donna’s heart-wrenching character arc. Her journey from being a temp who thought she would never amount to much to becoming the most influential person in the world was wiped from her mind because she didn’t want to die.

After that, Doctor WhoThe story was retold with a brand new writer, new Doctor and new companion. No one expected it to return to Donna, to rescue her from the hell she had created for herself. Until, that is, this year’s 60th anniversary special.

So, if you’re a Doctor Who fan who came in at a later era, and Donna and the 10th Doctor are just stories to you — relax. Wait until 2033 for the 70th anniversary.
