    Type 40 • A Doctor Who Podcast Episode 172: Billie Piper Speaks! Picking up the story of fallout from the calamitous end of the RTD2 era: we've first words from Billie Piper since the collapse of the Christmas 2026 special and the entire series imminently being put out to tender... She delighted the nation as Rose Tyler, mystified us as the Moment! But confounded all sense and reason with that final appearance in the closing moments of the season finale, last year. Now Billie finally answers questions on the subject of her involvement in Doctor Who right now & more! Charlotte and Mike join Dan for this near forensic look at what Billie told the crowd in London in late August 2026. Plus we're receiving more from a figure synonymous with New Who! Writer, actor and producer Mark Gatiss has also been speaking on the current fortunes of Doctor Who. Where do these interviews differ, where do they crossover and what can we deduce about prospects for the shows return?
