Rose Tyler is a fictional character in the British science fiction
television series Doctor Who. She was created by series producer
Russell T Davies and portrayed by Billie Piper. With the revival of
Doctor Who in 2005, Rose was introduced as a new travelling companion
of the series protagonist, the Doctor, in his ninth and tenth
incarnations. The companion character, intended to act as an audience
surrogate, was key in the first series to introduce new viewers to the
mythos of Doctor Who, which had not aired regularly since 1989. Rose
became the viewers' eyes into the new world of Doctor Who, from the
companion's perspective. Piper received top billing alongside
Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant for the duration of her time
as a regular cast member. A regular for all of series one (2005) and
series two (2006), Piper later returned for three episodes of the
programme's fourth series (2008) and appeared in feature-length
specials in both 2010 and 2013. In 2013, Piper played a different
character for the 50th anniversary known as 'The Moment', projecting
Rose's image in her 'Bad Wolf' form.In the series' narrative, Rose is
introduced in the eponymous series one premiere as a teenage working
class shop assistant from London, alongside her own supporting cast in
the form of her mother Jackie Tyler (Camille Coduri) and her boyfriend
Mickey Smith (Noel Clarke). Over the course of the first series Rose's
human actions and responses contrast with the Doctor's alien
perspectives. Rose grows increasingly trusting of the Doctor and comes
to realise she has fallen in love with him. He comes to value and
depend on her and sacrifices his Ninth incarnation for her. Rose forms
a similar bond with the new Doctor, but the two appear to be forever
separated in the series two finale, although Rose's temporary return
in the fourth series gives her relationship with the Doctor a
resolution.In promoting the series, both Piper and Eccleston stressed
Rose's heroic characteristics whilst Davies highlighted her
down-to-earth qualities and quintessential "British-ness". Critical
reaction noted that the character was more developed, independent and
equal to the Doctor than previous companions had been, whilst the
character's overall role in the narrative of the first two series was
praised. However, reaction to the character's 2008 return was more
mixed. Piper won numerous awards for her portrayal of Rose
â€"including two National Television Awards â€"and since her initial
role in the series, the character has ranked highly in numerous 'best
companion' polls. After leaving as a series regular, Piper experienced
success in other high-profile roles as an actress which has been
partly attributed to her performances in Doctor Who. Rose Tyler Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
