Rose (disambiguation)for other, similarly-named pages.
Rose Noble was the daughter of Donna Noble and Shaun Temple.
As she was transgender, she often felt like an outsider to society, leading her to easily sympathise with the Meep, an alien fleeing from another world.
Her name, Rose, was chosen by her subconscious, as she had inherited part of a Time Lord's biology from her mother, who had once merged with the Tenth Doctor to form the DoctorDonna. However, she eventually forfeited this power, as otherwise she would have died, and managed to accept her true self and who she was.
Biography
Following Donna Noble and Shaun Temple's wedding in Spring 2010, (TV: The End of Time (part two) [+]Loading...{"part":"Two","1":"The End of Time (TV story)"}) Rose was assigned male at birth and given the name of Jason, as well as her mother's surname, as Donna didn't like that "Temple-Noble" sounded like an "old ruin". Rose was the name that she chose for herself. (TV: The Star Beast [+]Loading...["The Star Beast (TV story)"])
Rose inherited some of the DoctorDonna from her mother, including some of Donna's memories of her adventures with the Tenth Doctor. This subconsciously influenced her choice in name, her building the shed as a replica of the TARDIS and toys that she created based on creatures that her mother had encountered, including Daleks, Cybermen, Judoon, Ood, and Adiposes. She sold these through an online business, with one customer as far away as the Middle East. (TV: The Star Beast [+]Loading...["The Star Beast (TV story)"])
In 2023, Rose's life changed when she stumbled across something alien while the Doctor, in his fourteenth incarnation, returned to the Noble family. (PROSE: We Are Family [+]Loading...{"page":"35","1":"We Are Family (short story)"})
Behind the scenes
On 16 May, Yasmin Finney teased her involvement in the 2023 specials with an Instagram post containing a rose and a blue diamond.[1] It was officially announced on doctorwho.tv by the BBC shortly after that Finney would be playing a character by the name of Rose.[2] Finney — a transgender actor herself — confirmed that her character would also be trans,[3] saying that Rose was a 15-year-old transgender girl with "a great supportive family".[4] On 30 August, the Doctor Who social medias revealed in a post on Finney's birthday the full name of her character, Rose Noble, confirming that the character is the daughter of Donna Noble and Shaun Temple.[5]
Age
In interviews, Rose was stated to be fifteen years old during the events of the 2023-set The Star Beast, a revelation that creates contradictions for the show's timeline. Rose's given age, combined with the setting, would suggest her year of birth as being 2008, a year before her biological parents even met, and two years before their marriage.
Russell T Davies has directly acknowledged this discrepancy, explaining that he chose to "fudge the years" with Donna to accommodate for the casting of the then-eighteen-year-old Finney in the role, before going on to jokingly give an in-universe explanation;
But you mustn’t forget, uh, that time cloud that descended on Camden in 2017 and dislocated everyone by exactly eight months and three days. We’ll tell that story one day. I will come to that in Series Seven.
