    "Father's Day" is brilliant, it really reset what the stakes for a Doctor Who episode could be all about. Billie Piper gave an absolutely devastating, heartbreaking performance. Just brilliant...one of the best things ever done on the show. She nearly matched it with "The Christmas Invasion". There have been lots and lots of great companions...but Rose will always be special.

    She was brilliant in PENNY DREADFUL. Her acting in that deserved an Emmy or some award. The show grew to suck big time but Billie's acting throughout was great but when her character rebelled against Dr. Frankenstein and all men, she really acted up a storm! Beyond great. Best modern day companion!

    I hadn't seen doctor who in about 12 years or something and my family and I recently started rewatching it. And I am just in love with Billie's acting! Everything had a motive, every movement. Rose bites her nails, she slouches when she sits, the way she leans. I don't know how to explain it but the behaviour and movement just made it obvious who Rose is, a young outspoken and bored young woman. When Rose cried, I bawled my eyes out, when she laughed, I laughed with her. Just amazing acting.

      Back in 1980, the Public Broadcasting Network started showing Dr. Who with Tom Baker and his companions Leela and Romana. They took it off the air in between the regeneration and the 5th Dr. Who, so I was a very confused 10 year old. Lol. I had no idea why he was a completely different person.
      It wasn't until decades later that I finally got back in due to having access to the BBC.
