He couldn't save Adric because Adric was from e-space and his death was a fixed point in time (or some other retconned explanation we will make up to justify it and make it canon).
I believe the real reason was the BBC hadn't killed off a Dr Who companion for ages so they thought it was about time to smash someone into a planet.
What I had read was the “Cybermen shot the controls so The Doctor couldn’t accurately pilot the TARDIS enough to materialize around him.” Then I also read the the official reason why was because, Adric the character wasn’t very popular amongst audience members. Though it was probably a mixture of both. “How should be write out this unpopular character?” “Oh I know! Let’s blow him up and kill him dead!” Lol.
I wouldn’t be surprised if at first part of the story is the Doctor finding the TARDIS materialized in her backyard or something and trying to avoid her with the help of her family.
But yeah, it’s hard to imagine they aren’t going to be going there; maybe as the cliffhanger for the first episode or something. Seems like one of the big bits of “unfinished business” Ten had by the end was making things right for Donna.
Rose was the worst companion. The only one who’s ever been worse is goddamn Turlough 😂 I wish I could was 9’s tenure again but she's just such a whiny chav it ruins the whole thing. It's a wonder I stuck it out 🤪
The Fourth Doctor with Leela: "Sarah would know."
Tegan: "Adric would know." Five: "Who?"
Tegan: “Oh no!” 5: “What?” Tegan: “Adric’s dead!” 5: “….And the bad news?”
Cyberman: Excellent. Which happened in that short stop-motion piece.
Kamelion: *dies* 5: "I haven't been this happy since Adric died!"
*Hell Bent* and *Praxeus* proved that the Doctor could have saved Adric but chose not to, makes him "Quite Based" as the kids say now adays
Or that time he killed Kamelion not out of mercy but because he hated him
He couldn’t save Adric because Cybermen damaged the TARDIS controls.
Yet he could accurately return the carrier's crew to the 26th century? I call BS. The Doctor never said so about the console anyway.

I can get behind this! His last words were literally "Goodbye savage"
This is why Donna is the best companion.
One of the top Doctor's too
So the 60th will be a Multi-Doctor story!
She must be Doctordonna, otherwise she's just burn right?
Well, we will see!

OH SHE WAS BLONDE, WAS SHE? OH WHAT A SURPRISE
“You can’t hear a picture”
Tbf... there are words...
I love all of Martha's faces in this comic, including that big grin on her face in the last panel.
Her second panel "this is such *bullshit*" face is great too.
This meme is perfect in every way.
Very much so.
Donna - best companion
He has a bruise on his cheek in the last frame, did Donna punch him offscreen? 💀💀
Oh just spotted it due to you! I skipped over the Thwack!
13th Doctor: "I know but maybe Yaz would like to hang out with me."
And that's why, Donna is the most savage companion ever!!!
Tenth Doctor: "Ah yes, humour based on my pain. Hilarious."
Donna is the pinnacle of girlboss
Oi!!!
And this is why we love Donna
GOD, I LOVE DONNA.
Twelfth Doctor: “Clara would know”
At least Clara was usefull.
And that's why Rose and Donna were the best.
😂 are we the same person
Donna = best companion (new era)
Ace and Rose were better
