Whew, DW Moffett replaces Brett Cullen in that SA vet story meaning that Brett Cullen is free to come back to FNL. Should that be a necessary part of the story.

I was just coming here to post that, Jen.
I have to say, of all the possible companions they could have chosen, this is the one I am least excited about. She was annoying!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Are there meta reasons for Freema taking a half-season break?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Mine either, although to be fair, I liked her at the end of the episode a bit, once the screeching was done. It might be nice for a year of a companion who's obviously not in love with him. Mind, I've not actually watched Season Three yet. Starts Friday!
Are there meta reasons ...
I'm sure there are, since they're obviously not getting rid of her. She'll be doing three episodes of "Torchwood" before moving back to "Dr. Who," so I imagine that's part of it. Overall, it seems they're setting up the Doctor to have some time away from romantic and pseudo-romantic entanglements.

Jon, no meta reasons have been forthcoming. I do believe it's mostly plot- and ratings-related, because RTD etc. have all been unstinting in their praise for Freema and love for Martha. But Torchwood badly needs a boost.
Anyway, I've no objections to more Martha-Jack interaction, or even Donna-Martha, come to that. Just not necessarily more Donna herself .

Perhaps I'm one of the few who only found
Donna
annoying for just a brief period early on. I rather enjoyed her braying brashness.
I think perhaps DW needs a respite from the lost love and the unrequited love(X2), and Donna seems to have ended up in a better place as of the conclusion of the X-mas special, and therefore has the potential to be less annoying/brash.
Second viewing. Changed mind. Nooooes!!1!
