A Rose by any other name…

BBC – Doctor Who => Bye Bye Billie

Award-winning Piper to depart at the end of series two.

Billie Piper is to leave Doctor Who in the nail-biting series two finale.

I must say, they did a much better job hiding Billie’s departure than they did Ecceleston’s. Rumors surfaced earlier that Piper was leaving at the end of New Series 2, but they were followed with an announcement (obviously a smoke screen) indicating she was staying into the third season, and then things were in the air.

As mentioned in some of my earlier reviews, it really felt to me as if they were setting Rose up for an end this year, but I speculated that it was just left over scripts from a time when they thought she was leaving. They made a good tactical move and they fooled me.

Rose has been a little annoying this year so perhaps it is time for her to go.

Now I wonder if the horrendous spoiler listed on IMDB’s listing of Doctor Who’s series finale is really true? (There was an earlier one that was even worse than this spoiler, but that has since disappeared.)
