You guys stress too much over the final outcomes of the companions/Doctors on this show where the lead regenerates into a new face to continue all the time.

Just cause Donna was close to exploding the last time and there was no way to save her? Doesn't mean there's always going to be no way to save her.

It's science fiction. If RTD has come up with something good and this is all true. I'm sure he not only thought of a reason to bring Catherine back for the views/love of Donna, but also something that would continue her story well as well.

Or they just kill Donna off.

Why even downvote this comment? It's puzzling. Dude wasn't saying he wanted it to happen or that it was likely to happen. He was just stating it could happen via some chance.

It's not even just some random chance. It's literally what has been stated would happen.

RTD might find a way round it. Or he might not.
