Geoffrey "Geoff" Noble was Donna Noble's father and Sylvia Noble's husband. He was walking his daughter down the aisle, during her wedding to Lance Bennett, when she unexpectedly disappeared in a burst of golden light. As baffled as anyone else, Geoff took charge of seeing to the injured in the wake of the Robot Santas' attack on the wedding reception, and was overjoyed when Donna returned safely home after her adventure with the Doctor. (DW: The Runaway Bride)
As Sylvia told her daughter, in May 2009, that she has had a tough year "with your Dad". Geoff died on 15th May 2008. (NSA: Beautiful Chaos)
At some point before his death, Geoff encountered the Doctor and gave him a quid (1 pound sterling), which the Doctor used to purchase a lottery ticket which was given to Donna as a wedding present a few years after his death. The ticket had the winning numbers in a triple roll-over draw that occurred soon after her wedding. (DW: The End of Time)
