Yes, I loved the link between the Doctor and Donna, or DoctorDonna if you will. They are joined and it is them both that are important when the darkness is coming. God, I'm so intrigued. I was so pertified that this could be done badly, but I loved the episode.
And I did love it especially for the reason you mentioned - I like Rose, and I'm excited that she is back, but I was worried her return would overshadow Donna, because this is Donna's season. And I think the whole season is her story and her progress, and it is something that has been building since The Runaway Bride. So to have Billie Piper's return handled well, and have her competent and smart, but still somewhat mysterious, but for Donna still to be the driving force in the story made me so happy. That is not to say that Rose won't have her moments, what with her reunion with Ten and whatever this Bad Wolf stuff is, but we now know that the it is the DoctorDonna that is important here. As Rose said, "Donna Noble you are the most important woman in all of Creation!" - which worries me, but yet makes me proud for Donna at the same time.
