The Women of Doctor Who Page #5

---

"Alive" isn't sad.

It's sad

when it's over.

I'll always be here,

but this is

when we talked

and, now, even that

has come to an end.

There's something

I didn't get

to say to you.

Goodbye.

No.

I just wanted to say

hello.

Hello, Doctor.

Doctor.

It's so very,

very nice

to meet you.

Please,

I don't

want you to.

Please.

It's very emotional

when she says

"There's something I --"

Oh, God,

I can't even say it.

"There's something I've

always wanted to say to you."

And he assumes

it's goodbye

and it's the opposite.

They've spent

so many years together.

She never just

got to say hello.

But, you know,

they're still going to be

together throughout time.

I was worried,

when I heard

about what the episode

was going to be,

that it would get it wrong

and that would annoy me

because that's not the way

I would envision such a thing.

And it's not what I would

envision, it's better.

It was like a buddy-cop movie

across the Universe.

You're just a long

streak of nothing.

Amy Pond is a groupie.

But you're human!

The Doctor

has very firm views

on who can go

onboard the TARDIS

and it's pretty clear,

what they have to be.

They have to be --

obviously, brave

and they have to be clever --

he's bored by stupid people

and a coward would last

two minutes in there.

I hated Donna Noble

when I first met her.

This obnoxious

redheaded woman,

and Donna turned out to be

one of the best companions,

if not the best companion

of the reboot.

She won't take any

of his usual schtick

and she can give

as good as he can get,

so the relationship's

more fun to watch.

It was like a buddy-cop

movie like

where they're going across,

you know, the Universe.

It was different

from the other companions.

And you get

this scene

where they're both

kind of stuck.

She's great

at vaudeville

and that's what

this moment is,

it's classic

comedy.

They both have

such strong

comedy

backgrounds.

I think the chemistry

between those two

was probably

my favorite.

Are we

interrupting you?

I love the way that,

you know, Donna

would always go like that

and shake her fist.

She was more

challenging, I think,

for the Doctor and that was

a great opportunity

to write

some very sparkling

and very,

very funny stuff.

The scene where they have

the confusion about,

you know, "I want to mate"/

"I want a mate" is fantastic.

I just want

a mate.

You just want

to mate?!

I just want

a mate.

You're not mating

with me, sunshine!

A mate,

I want a mate.

Well,

just as well,

because I'm not having

any of that nonsense.

I mean, you're just

a long streak of nothing,

you know,

alien nothing.

There we are, then.
