BILLIE PIPER as ROSE TYLER Doctor Who 1x06: Dalek

kai @miwtual's birthday countdown event: day 2: from your decade/day 5: color focus — pink

Billie Piper if you’re out there please know it’s been over a decade and I am still deeply infatuated.

Me at 9 years old, riveted, watching Christine Baranski tie a towel around a young man’s waist in the shape of a diaper while singing Does Your Mother Know:

I just think she’s neat.

Me at 12 years old watching X-Men cartoons unable to break my gaze from Emma Frost’s chest:

I just think she’s cool.

Me at 15 years old, utterly obsessed with Billie Piper’s portrayal of Rose Tyler in hit Science Fiction show, Doctor Who:

No you don’t understand she’s the Actress of Our Time-.

Me at 19, pondering if perhaps there was any signs I was gay that I should have noticed sooner:

…huh.

I think it is much better than the BBC version.

ROSE TYLER: WHAT DO YOU THINK?

This post is about Rose Tyler (Billie Piper) and doctor who. Now, I took off my "rose tinted glasses" years ago, but I wanted to see what others thought about this.

Rose was actually 17 when she first met him (don't bother with the shows timeline, it's shit). Not too long into their trip, she would have turned 18. So technically, she was around 19 when she returned a year late. It starts off with her - a character I absolutely loved and related to on so many levels. I defended her through thick and thin even when she was in the wrong. Eventually, I began seeing her flaws and now, I only defend her when she's in the right.

Anyway, I loved her in S1 but in S2, I found it and her (especially with him) unbearable. Her attitude had a lot to be desired for. His too. This was of course, long after she actually left. I still loved her in S3 to the point I despised Martha. Looking back now, her attitude was both alarming and disgusting. Both of them. She was selfish, careless, toxic etc.

I still don't like Martha at all (it's not just about Rose), so I skip some of her episodes. I skip from each series depending on whether they're weak or not. I skip more of hers though. I loved Donna and her arc. It's a tragedy what happened to her. But when Rose originally returned in S4, I was excited. I remember thinking to myself: Everything's gonna be fine now. They'll find each other again, fix everything and she'll get to stay this time."

Put it this way, I wasn't worried about them. So imagine how pissed I was when he dropped her off in the other world, took her choice away from her and literally ditched her there (both actually) without bothering to ask/consult them on it whatsoever. And on top of that, he actually had the audacity to act sad after leaving Donna and speaking to Wilf. Like, you do realise you're alone because of your own doing, right?!

He wouldn't have been alone if he hadn't left her behind. It was his fault. Billie herself has spoken up about it all. In an interview with Buzzfeed, she opened up about her feelings on her second exit from Doctor Who and revealed what she would change about Rose's fate. Piper stated that she would prefer that Rose left the show with the Doctor, rather than the part-human Meta-Crisis Doctor on the "Pete's World".

I agree with this, not just because she herself said it, but also because it's a Rose thing to do. We all know what Rose would have done if given that chance. We all know her choice - it's the same choice she made it "Doomsday" where she left her mum and outright said she said "I made my choice a long time ago, and I'm never going to leave you."

We all know she'd never have left him willingly. But we have to acknowledge that he took her choice and freedom away from her (and the other him), making the choice for them even though they didn't want it. That was beyond wrong of him. He had no right. But now we have to wonder what would have happened if Billie did get her way and she stayed with him. What would have happened after?

Her staying would have caused issues because as I mentioned, Rose never would have left him willingly. How would new characters or doctors be introduced if she were still around? No one sticks around forever either. She would have had to leave eventually. But how? On top of that, a lot of people would have been unhappy with Rose returning for many reasons. Many can't stand her or her attitude. Many think she's had her time etc.

So, if she'd stayed, what would have happened to her in the end? There's only two choices here:

1. Her being trapped permanently elsewhere (like the other world). But if that's the case, then she may as well stay there instead.

And

2. Death.

Those are the only two options for her character in the end. Because Rose never would have left, but companions always leave. So do the people playing them. Perhaps he still would have gone to Mars, but instead, they fight those monsters and she dies somehow. Then he goes temporarily insane. Doing what he did in that episode would make more sense rather than him just wanting to save people he knows he can't then going crazy.

What are your thoughts on it all? What do you think would have happened if Billie had her way?
