The short scene where [[Donna Noble]] and the [[Tenth Doctor]] initially met affords an unusual chance for the ordinary viewer to clearly see what the cinematographer actually does.  [[Ernie Vincze]] had lit the original take of the scene in ''[[Doomsday]]'', but [[Rory Taylor]] was ''[[The Runaway Bride]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s DP.  Because Vincze preferred to use gels that cast the set in blues and greens — and because Vincze tended to light for heavy areas of shadow in the [[console room]] — it would not have been possible for the production team to merely "lift" the scene from ''Doomsday'' and insert it into ''Bride''.  So much of the episode was set inside [[the Doctor's TARDIS]], that the difference between the two cinematographers' choices would have been visually disharmonious.
