Line 1: {{~~work~~creator}} [[File:catherine-tate-243x233_7729.jpg\|frame]] {{quote\|''All the funny stuff's down to Catherine Tate. I'm just her bitch.''\|'''[[David Tennant]]'''}} Line 5: Born in 1968 as Catherine Ford, Tate is a British comedienne. Having played guest roles in ''[[The Bill]]'' ([[Only So Many Equity Members\|who hasn't in the UK?]]), her big break came with ''[[The Catherine Tate Show]]''. Her most notable character from that was schoolgirl Lauren, with her [[Catch Phrase]] "Am I bovvered?" Her next well-known role was playing Donna Noble in a well-received ''[[~~Doctor Who (TV)\|~~Doctor Who]]'' [[Christmas Special]] in 2006. She was brought back in 2008 as a full-time companion of the Doctor, and ended up becoming a fan-favorite character thanks to her performance as well as some much-needed [[Character Development]]. She had a similar experience with the American version of ''[[The Office]],'' first making a guest appearance in the final episode of season 7 then returning in season 8 as a major character. ----- {{creatortropes}} ~~This actor provides examples of:~~ * [[Catch Phrase]] * [[Christmas Cake]]: Donna in ''[[~~Doctor Who (TV)\|~~Doctor Who]]''. * [[Punctuated! ~~for~~For! Emphasis!]] - it is quite possible that she provided the only recorded '''silent''' example of this trope, courtesy of soundproof glass. * [[Shakespearian Actors]]: She did small parts in her youth for the [[Royal Shakespeare Company]], and has played Beatrice opposite [[David Tennant]]'s Benedick in ''[[Much Ado About Nothing]]''. * [[She Really Can Act]]: Got a ''lot'' of this with her turn as Donna Noble in ''[[~~Doctor Who (TV)\|~~Doctor Who]]''. * [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Any time she's sharing a scene with [[David Tennant]] (and they have quite a bit), they're almost always on the opposite ends of a snark-off. Then they [[Slap Slap Kiss\|got to do it onstage]] as Benedick and Beatrice, in the RSC's ''[[Much Ado About Nothing]]''.
