I think she was great as Rose Tyler...


I really like Billie as an actor and I think her best role was in Doctor Who. I was and still am a fan of Rose/Ten. She was my favorite character and I miss her now. Okay, her relationship with the Doctor was special and not everyone liked that but I think she was great and helpful and caring. She was everything the Doctor needed.




I fell apart, but got back up again...

Agreed.

The truth is out there.

Me too.

I like her as an actor but her character on doctor who was awful. She acted like a spoiled brat. Every time a situation came up where she might have to live a normal life again she broke down crying and many time chose a possible death to living a normal life. Pretty much everything she did was all self serving to either keep traveling with the doctor or die and she passed it off as self sacrificing.

I'm watching Dr who for the first time, I've almost finished season 2 and just recently she has started to become....annoying, like I would enjoy the show more if she just wasn't there.

I don't know. I really liked her, she was strong in her own way. I don't think she was any more needy than anyone else would be. The doctor was her first love so of course she didn't want their time to end. I love the way Billie Piper can really convey Rose's heartbreak. She brings her pain to the forefront and really makes you feel it. She is very believable as an actress in that way.

Spoiled brat? Maybe so. Actually an accurate reflection of modern society.

She was much better than Martha, who continually complained about and blamed the Doctor for not loving her.
