The Fourteenth Doctor and Donna Can't Neglect the Fight Against Sutekh
Now employed by UNIT, Donna Noble is not to be seen while her daughter Rose is seen to be diligent at work for the company in "The Legend of Ruby Sunday." It's somewhat more reasonable that the Fourteenth Doctor isn't first present as he has entered a new phase of existence that revolves more on the daily grind. Once more, he has a completely working copy of the TARDIS; this might be quite important considering Sutekh's return. Why then has his blue box not warned the retiring Time Lord to the current danger?
Donna and the Fourteenth Doctor are two of planet Earth's greatest assets; the fight against Sutekh will be all-hands-on-deck. Rose is at UNIT HQ and completely aware of the danger everyone is in, even if she strangely doesn't know what's going on right now. Therefore, there is at least one direct line between Donna and Fourteen; Rose wouldn't have any excuse not to phone them to seek for their help.
Doctor Who's 60th Anniversary Proved Fourteen & Fifteen Can Meet Without Causing A Paradox
Multi-Doctor stories are not very common. Although the Doctor's vast chronology is a fascinating occurrence, its complexity means that any cooperation with his past or future selves might produce a terrible paradox. Sometimes it's a bit unfair as a returning doctor actor can also divert attention from the present star of the show. Usually saved for exceptional occasions, such anniversaries, this kind of story is Fascinatingly, Russell T Davies introduced the idea of bi-generation in "The Giggle," therefore removing the contradiction hurdle.
Though bi-generation is still poorly understood, the Fourteenth Doctor most likely won't regenerate into Ncuti Gatwa's Time Lord form. He wouldn't be the same iteration of the character even if he did as both Fourteen and Fifteen are now entirely independent of one another. Stated differently, a paradox was always waiting to surface when the three Doctors convened for the 50th anniversary special. Conversely, Fourteen and Fifteen can have as much interaction as they like. Davies thus has even less of a justification to leave David Tennant off the Season 14 Finale, "Empire of Death."
Final Spoilers for Doctor Who Season 14: The Return of Sutekh
Alert: Major spoilers for season 14, episode 7, "The Legend of Ruby Sunday." The Doctor Who Season 14 finale seems to be an extremely high-stakes event, hence it would be quite strange if the Fourteenth Doctor and Donna Noble distance themselves from the narrative. The conclusion of the Doctor Who 60th-anniversary specials presented a brand-new bi-generation spin on the series. David Tennant's Fourteenth Doctor was thus able to keep his autonomy as Ncuti Gatwa's Fifteenth iteration approached the field to take over.
Fourteen retired from his signature heroics essentially, but he still possesses qualities that won't fade fast. With her character recovering all the memories Tennant's Tenth Doctor forced her to forget all the way back in the Doctor Who season 4 Finale, Catherine Tate's Donna Noble also returned for the 60th-anniversary festivities. Tate and Tennant's Doctor Who characters are thus back at the height of their abilities and might theoretically resurfaced on the programme at any moment. Although their absence hasn't been a problem thus far, it quite well could be once the first season of Doctor Who's Disney period ends draws to an end.
David Tennant and Catherine Tate Are Unlikely to Make Returns in the Finale of Doctor Who Season 14
The probability of the Fourteenth Doctor's and Donna Noble's coming up in "Empire of Death" remains somewhat low notwithstanding their logical reappearance. Given that so much of the focus of Doctor Who season 14 has already been on Millie Gibson's Ruby Sunday, it would be perhaps quite unfair for Ncuti Gatwa, the Doctor, to share the limelight.
While Gatwa could boldly share the screen with Tennant once more without being pushed into a minor character role, he has earned the right to take on his first major adversary without another Doctor helping him out during his tenure as the Doctor. It's only awful that, given the terrible situation, the Fourteenth Doctor would rightfully show up according to canonically genuine facts. Having said that, neither Tennant's nor Donna Noble's comeback is totally outside the range of possibility.
Season 14 Finale for Doctor Who: An Emerging Multi-Doctor Story?
A second TARDIS was present, "20 meters to the north," according to UNIT's analysis of the CCTV footage from the night of Ruby's birth in "The Church on Ruby Road." Two TARDIS have occasionally come into close proximity; usually, this is related to a multi-Doctor narrative in full flow. Thus, the fact that the Fourteenth Doctor also owns a TARDIS becomes even more crucial given the CCTV evidence.
The Sutekh disclosure suggests that long ago the god of death sought cover inside the TARDIS. Actually, Doctor Who season 14 could be considered a hidden sequel to a 1975 Tom Baker tale titled, "Pyramids of Mars." Therefore, since Sutekh has been within the TARDIS since Baker's Doctor Who period, it follows that he too was replicated when the TARDIS was divided in half in "The Giggle." Fourteen's blue box, guided to the night of Ruby's birth by Sutekh without Time Lord knowledge, could be the other TARDIS shown in the CCTV film in "The Legend of Ruby Sunday."
Doctor Who: Iconic Doctors in History
Having been a regular feature on TV screens for sixty years, Doctor Who offers a wealth of stories from which to select the Time Lord's best.

From William Hartnell's original portrayal of the character to Ncuti Gatwa's present rendition, the show has seen a lengthy run of legendary Doctors.

Returning David Tennant and Catherine Tate for the 60th-anniversary celebrations was a historic event reminding viewers of the Tenth Doctor's and Donna Noble's ongoing influence. With suspense, action, and maybe even the comeback of a dear Doctor and friend, the season 14 finale of The Doctor Who looks to be an amazing episode.
