Good grief.
I was really starting to look forward to this...Chris Eccleston was growing on me and it was all looking great...WHY HER??????
Is that who she is? I knew I recognised the name but couldn't remember where from. They interviewed all these people and she was the best of them? I try not to pre-judge these things but...
Oh No No No!

Probably. He's a dirty (read lucky) old bloke.
I swear she's been married to Chris Evans for like 4 years.....
"It was a long, thorough search to find Billie - despite the fact that the tabloids have been touting her name for months now! We auditioned all sorts of actors - some famous, some unknown - but we've now met with Billie three times, and she's absolutely perfect, and very close to the description of Rose on the page - I think Billie's 21, and Rose is 19, so that's a great fit!
"I don't want to give away too much about Rose, cos I want the viewers to discover it all as new, on screen, in 2005. We should all start this adventure together! But suffice to say, I think the companion is as pivotal to these adventures as the Doctor himself - Rose can be our eyes, discovering spaceships and alien creatures with awe and wonder, and a vital sense of humour. When I was a kid, I always imagined becoming the companion. Now, at last, I'm close, cos I get to write her!
"And it won't be an easy ride for Rose. As well as the wonders of time and space, she discovers the horrors - and some of them are on her own doorstep! Over the course of 13 episodes, Rose will change and grow, and hopefully, we can keep that story going in the years to come."
