Next season is aiming to be the funniest yet.
Wanna know why?
Catherine Tate is reprising the role of Donna for every single episode.
Thats right, she is going to be the next companion BUT from the article I read today it will be BOTH Freema and Catherine.
I'm so happy. I loved Tates Donna, she was so funny and was brilliant opposite Tennant.

LONDON (Reuters) - Comedian Catherine Tate is join the cast of cult science-fiction TV drama "Doctor Who" as the time traveller's latest companion, the BBC announced on Wednesday.

Tate, best known for her self-titled show which gave the nation the catchphrase "Am I bovvered?", is reprising the role of the runaway bride she performed in last year's Christmas special.

At the end of that adventure her character turned down the chance to travel with the Doctor, played by actor David Tennant, but now Tate has agreed to appear in all 13 episodes of the next series which is due to be broadcast early next year.

"I had a blast last Christmas and look forward to travelling again through time and space with that nice man from Gallifrey," Tate said.

Tate is the latest well-known name to star in the show. On Tuesday the BBC said Australian pop diva Kylie Minogue would appear in this year's special Christmas episode.

Minogue, 39, will play a "major lead role" alongside Dr Who in the hour-long episode, "Voyage of the Damned".

The Doctor's current sidekick Martha Jones, played by Freema Agyeman, will also return during the next series.

I'm optimistic about that combination. I think there will be good chemistry there. I can seem Martha and Donna playing off each other. I like the sections where the doctor has multiple companions. I'm watching the Tegan/Nyssa/Aldric ones right now. Romana and K-9 are the team to beat though.

I'm looking forward to seeing Donna agian but it did surprise me she is comming back because in the Runnway Bride she was very certain about NOT comming with him, so we'll see what the writters come up with to have her on board.
I was just getting used to Martha aswell!
