15 Doctor Who Scenes That Make You Cry Every Damn Time

12. Turn Left (2008)

Donna Noble was pushed to her emotional limits in Turn Left when the fate of the entire universe rested solely in her hands. No pressure, then! After a fateful encounter with a time beetle, everybody's favourite temp from Chiswick found herself in a whole new world where she'd never met the Doctor, which was basically a sorry place for everyone. She was willing to give it all up, of course, in exchange for a new life of travelling the stars, and this tearjerking speech beautifully encapsulates just how much of an unsung hero she really was. All hail Donna Noble!
