Lance Bennett

Lance Bennett was the fiancé of Donna Noble.

In June 2007 Lance was working as the head of Human Resources at H.C. Clements, where Donna had just landed a temp job. His offer of a cup of coffee quickly turned into a romantic relationship at least for Donna, who pressured him into marriage. Their wedding was scheduled for 24th December 2007.

Unbeknownst to Donna, however, Lance had been working for Empress of the Racnoss for at least six months. At the Empress' behest, he dosed her with dangerous Huon particles over this period, intending for his Huon-saturated bride to provide the energy that the Empress needed to resurrect her race. Himself betrayed by the Empress, Lance met his end in the hungry jaws of her children. (DW: The Runaway Bride)

Behind the Scenes
In a deleted scene, Lance says the reason he thought the human race was nothing because of the Daleks and the Cyberman. (DW: Doomsday)
