The BBC has confirmed that actress Billie Piper is
due to return to Doctor Who.
It has been announced that she will star in three episodes
reprising her role as The Doctor's companion, Rose Tyler. This will mean that The
Doctor will have three assistants in Season 30 (New Series
4)
of the latest series - Donna Noble, played by Catherine Tate,
and Martha Jones, played by Freema Agyeman. Season 30 (New
Series 4) is due to begin in March/April 2008 and will
run for
13 episodes.
Billie Piper left the show at the end of Season 28 (New
Series 2), when her character Rose was transported
into a parallel universe in the two part season
finale "Army
of Ghosts/Doomsday".
The return of Rose Tyler to the show is good news for Doctor
Who fans as she had been a huge hit and this
was reflected in Billie Piper winning a number of
awards for her performances - including being named
the most popular actress at the National Television
Awards two years running in 2005 and 2006.
