inspired by fifteen trying to say shit and getting censored by the nanny filter, here’s a complete table of every doctors who and whether or not they use strong language

1 - no

2 - yeah

3 - rarely, but accurately and directly, in a dignified and sarcastic fashion

4 - ABSOLUTELY all the time. the tardis filter barely copes. we’ve all seen the K-9 clip, that’s what the character sounds like without the kids show censorship

5 - no. does he look like a man who swears to you? maybe some esoteric combination of words like fuckadoodle shitnozzles

6 - yes. duh

7 - he doesn’t enjoy it, but occasionally, sparingly, when the situation calls for it

8 - definitely . not too frequently, though. for emphasis, or for a laugh

9 - that man is a working class northerner from the 2000s and a jaded war veteran. draw your own conclusions. he knows elaborate insults you’ve never heard of

10 - cheeky little ‘fuck’ here and there with rose & martha, ALL THE TIME with donna, and swearing like hell when he starts going off the rails in the s4 specials

11 - lol no. well… he’s got an example to set to the companions that he treats like children. he’s a storybook character and he wants to be perceived as an imaginary friend, a kind almost victorian whimsical gentleman in a bowtie, and a person like that wouldn’t use crude language. with river song though? now THAT’S a whole other story

12 - the scene in dark water with the psychic paper tells us everything we need to know. twelve in series 8 was straight up pg13ified malcolm tucker. shuttity-up-up-up without the tardis filter sounds like fuckity-bye. he swears liberally, frequently, unsparingly and unceremoniously, at everyone without distinction, including clara’s students at coal hill. personally i think that’s one hell! of a fucking! bird!

13 - no. she’s all famalam hipster mum cringy kindergarten teacher. it doesn’t fit her ~vibe~. the master makes fun of this trait in the timeless children when he’s goading her about her superiority complex. says it’s such a step down from her previous self, at least that one was honest about his emotions

fugitive - she gives no fucks and takes no shit

14 - yes from time to time, like a normal human being would, nothing excessive. donna does bring it out in him though. his mouthy side

15 - this guy says cunt and serves it

My dad sends me. Doctor Who character analysis sometimes and here's his latest:

11, more than any other Doctor, is the reason that River says, "Never let the Doctor see you get older." Rose, Martha, Amelia, Clara, Billie, Ryan, and Yaz are all young, all full of a sense of wonder for the things that the Doctor shows them. Donna is an adult. She first decided to become a companion because she was in a rut and wanted to run away from that. So 10 thought she would be like the the others. On their first trip, 9 showed Rose the end of the Earth. When she assumes that he is going to save the Earth, he corrected her. Stating that this is an unchangeable event. From the beginning, he trains her not to question his judgement on what he says cannot be changed. Donna was too old to fall for that and pushes back constantly. Okay, so you can't save everyone in Pompeii, then just save one person. It isn't an all or nothing proposition. He learned from that and tried to do better. Until he got too arrogant and tried to save someone he really should have let die. But then he became 11, the Doctor who forgets. The one who keeps running away more than any other. 200 years running away from Lake Silence. Years in a cloud over Victorian London. Years spent in a monastary.

If he can't save everyone, then fine. He won't save anyone.

Then he became 12, with a face to remind him of Donna's lesson.

"Let's leave them there, shall we, smiling and happy, friends on a golden day, because up above them, far up above the trees, up and up into the clouds, spinning through the blue sky and into the darkness of space...off to new adventures...soars a blue police box."

“Benedick and Beatrice are similar to the Doctor and Donna in some ways.” — Catherine Tate

[joidevive]

Nine and Donna would have the sassiest adventures, roast all the villains and slay everywhere across time and space. Bonus points if they were actually allowed to swear.

I love these tags gonna add them

I fucking LOVE that Donna is not immune to being a little starry-eyed over The Doctor in the way that many of us get a little starry-eyed over our best friends but she IS immune to being that way in front of them lmao. Double love that this appears to also be Catherine Tate and David Tennant's dynamic

[joidevive]

Tbh honestly tbh I think Donna Noble is one of the best characters of all time from ANYTHING ever and her very presence elevates her material. Like imo Season 4 of Nuwho genuinely doesn't have any flop/skip episodes (and is maybe one of the only seasons not to) and Donna makes up a good 75% of the reason for that. Like season 4's absolute WORST episodes I would put at "overall pretty good" because my best friend Donna is there. Poison Sky/Sontarun Strategem two parter is kind of meh story wise to me but I fucking adore them because of DonnaMartha bffls and also Donna's delivery of "back of the neck!" is so iconic to me. Unicorn and The Wasp is objectively fuckin stupid but in a way that Donna as a comedic character gets to fucking SHINE and I think it's one of the best episodes of television fight me 💖. Donna Noble the woman you ARE!!!

Catherine Tate came in to Doctor Who with no DW knowledge or interest in sci-fi, had a great time, delivered a jaw-dropping performance, made a friend and became an iconic companion in the show's history. LEGENDARY BEHAVIOR.

[joidevive]

This interview of David Tennant and Catherine Tate talking about doing "Much Ado About Nothing" together is so precious! Like these two actors met on a Christmas Special of a tv show and became such good friends that they have done a million things together since then. And they are so excited to talk about any project they share because they love doing it together and hanging out, it's just so wonderful! And the fact that they were not cast to do a play because they have great chemistry, but chose to do it and not just with anyone but specifically with each other, because they wanted to do it together, is so special and lovely. David saying that everyone should see Catherine acting on stage because "she's terribly good" and saying doing something with a mate is so amazing. Their friendship is just so genuine and the way they choose to do projects together because they just love hanging out and doing anything together is always a joy. And that's why "Much Ado About Nothing" (2011) is so iconic, because it is done by good friends, for fun, and they had a blast doing it. And the same can honestly be said about literally every project David and Catherine have done together.

We love you Donna

[Abridged] Based on an exerpt from “10th Doctor Adventures - Vol. 1” | Another great moment of the Doctor and Donna being best time-and-space bros—the Doctor just wants the best for his most brilliant of friends even if it means being lonely again, and Donna can barely get him to stop being a dork long enough to explain that she ain’t leaving, not yet.

[joidevive]

In "The Star Beast" novelisation the Doctor repeats that he loves Donna twice, and somehow it is making me even more emotional😭
