Piper Returns To Who

Billie Piper, who played Rose Tyler during the first two seasons of the BBC's revived Doctor Who series, will return for three episodes in season four, the BBC confirmed. The news was leaked on Nov. 26 by a fan who snapped photos of Piper in costume on the set in Cardiff, Wales.

Piper will be one of three actresses to join David Tennant's Doctor in the upcoming season, including Catherine Tate, who first appeared as Donna Noble in last year's Christmas special, "The Runaway Bride," and Freema Agyeman, who played Martha Jones in the third season and returns for a limited run in season four. It is not clear whether Rose will meet any of the Doctor's other companions during her three-episode run.

Doctor Who returns to the BBC for a Christmas special on Dec. 25 titled "Voyage of the Damned." The episode, set on the Titanic, will co-star singer and actress Kylie Minogue. The fourth season premieres in March and will run for 13 episodes. -Cindy White

One of my favorite bits was when one of the doctors pops into Unit HQ long after the brigadire (SP? Name) has retired. An aide tells has an exchange with the new CO:

"That's the Doctor!"
"Who?"

okay, it's hokey...but so was Who, back in the day!
