Template:NcEmma was a companion of the Doctor's. Unlike past companions, the Doctor fell in love with Emma and proposed marriage to her, indicating his intent to finally settle down. However, after a subseqent series of rapid-fire regenerations, culminating in a final, female regeneration, Emma broke off the engagement, saying the Doctor was, in every sense of the phrase, no longer the man she fell in love with. (DW: The Curse of Fatal Death)
Behind the scenes
- The storyline of Curse of Fatal Death is not considered canonical.
- The idea of the Doctor falling in love with a companion (and vice versa) would be revisited several times when the TV series returned in 2005.
- Teleplay writer Steven Moffat would later create more characters with whom the Doctor falls in love, including Madame de Pompadour (DW: The Girl in the Fireplace) and (possibly) River Song. (DW: Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead)
- According to the behind-the-scenes documentary, Sawalha called Louise Jameson for advice on how to convey the intelligence of the Doctor Who companion.
