"The Doctor is dead." Does that give anyone else the shivers?

No, because I know he's not. Now if it was in the very last episode and we didn't know who was playing the Doctor next season, I'd be chilled...

Donna with something on her back, something… insecty? Maybe? I don’t know what other people think it is.

According to some tabloid spoiler or other that someone mentioned to me recently, it's a beetle...

"You’re going to die." Why does that make me think Donna isn’t going to die? Something bad is going to happen to her or her family, definitely, but I think it’s going to be more along the lines of forgetting the Doctor ever existed. DO NOT WANT. I want Donna to live, and even if she doesn’t travel with the Doctor permanently, then at least meet up with him occasionally. *sob* I've been saying for ages that Donna'll end up Retconned, rather than dead. It's one thing to kill off a not-quite-Companion whom we barely know (Astrid), but it's quite something else to kill of a full time Companion whom we've known and had time to love ( ... )

I agree, Donna wont die, they wouldnt kill a compaion RTD said it in the Doomsday Confidential when speaking about Rose not dying. "It was never our intention to kill a companion" he was laughing when he said it.

Given how little I believe of what RTD says, that's not an argument that convinces me personally !

Perhaps I am living in denial or it is just wishful thinking but I dont think Donna will die.

Oh I don't believe she will die - I think she'll be retconned. But I don't take any notice of what RTD says any more...

Many, many times - too many to list in fact... Every time he opens his mouth, I stand by with a large bucket of salt...

Well, obviously he's not going to die, it's just me because I've read to many fics where the Doctor dies and they're always really depressing.

A beetle? I wonder where that all fits into it?

I've been saying for ages that Donna'll end up Retconned, rather than dead. It's one thing to kill off a not-quite-Companion whom we barely know (Astrid), but it's quite something else to kill of a full time Companion whom we've known and had time to love over 13 episodes...

I know, the opinion of Donna is pretty divided, but a hell of a lot of people love her, and RTD would be on the receiving end of some pretty angry fans if he killed her off - even if she does die a heroic death.

Still, her being retconned would be almost as bad as her dying. So it's pretty much a lose-lose situation. :(

Ah, OK...

Goodness knows !

Exactly !!

Well the thing is, it's possible Donna'd overcome the retconning - if ever there was a gutsy, determined person capable of it, then Donna's the one !

This is sort of my hope...They retcon her, there is such a fan begging spree to bring her back, they bribe Tate, she agrees, and because Donna is the SHesizzle, the retcon will not work and she will find the Doctor and smack him a good one for trying to wipe her mind.
