Billie Piper Willing to Return to Doctor Who But on One Condition

With the return of David Tennant as the Fourteenth Doctor in the Doctor Who 60th anniversary special, some wonder if Billie Piper will also make a comeback as Rose Tyler. Though the 40-year-old is willing to reprise the role, she has one condition.

Rose was the Ninth Doctor (Christopher Eccleston) and Tenth Doctor’s (Tennant) companion from 2005 to 2006. She, too, appeared several times in the franchise, but though she wouldn’t return to accompany Tennant as the Tenth Doctor, she might still return to the franchise if this one thing happens.

Billie Piper will Do Doctor Who Again If This Happens

In an interview with Buzzfeed, the actress revealed he would only do the series again if the filming location were in London.

"If it was shot in London — sorry, that's a really loveless answer!" she said.

"There's a running theme here, I don't want to work much,” she continued. “It was like four episodes all shot in London, then yeah, I'd be like a rat-up-a-drainpipe for that."
