David discusses anniversary, doubts Billie’s return
David Tennant has once again spoken out about making a comeback during Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary.
“I’ll always be able to come back in the parallel world as the Doctor ages like a normal human,” the actor told The Sun. However, he added that, while it’s “possible”, he is doubtful that former co-star Billie Piper would be as keen to reprise her role as Rose Tyler. He explains: “Yeah, Billie probably wouldn’t come back and that is what would be problematic.” They both last appeared in The End of Time, Part Two.
Recently David said he’s “not confirming nor denying anything” about his potential involvement in the landmark year, while Billie’s previously confirmed that Rose’s “ship has sailed”. The actress will be making her debut at the National Theatre this autumn.

I did like her character but I don’t think Billie should come back. It would be too difficult to bring Rose back without over-using her completely.
Though Donna was my favourite companion I’d most like to see a return from Martha. I’d like her to see the Doctor now that he’s changed again and is so much happier than when he she knew him, and I’d like him personally to give her a little more credit for everything she did for him because I think a lot of that went unnoticed.
I’d also like to see the return of some of the classic companions!

Very true. Rose was not a perfect companion either. I think both Martha and Donna did a lot more for the Doctor, but they still get hate from Rose lovers.
I want rose to come back she’s one of my favourite companions – Donna is brill but id love rose to come back
