Billie Piper (Rose Tyler)

9B - The End of the World

9D - Aliens of London (2 parts)
A space ship crashes into the Thames, members of the government go missing and all of the top brass in alien affairs after being invited to 10 Downing Street somehow die. Stranger than that is the amount of wind being passed by those in charge. Is there something going on?
9E - World War III
Having been unmasked as the family Slitheen, who want to destroy the Earth and sell it off as scrap, they set about convincing the UN to release the nuclear failsafe codes under the ruse of being under attack by aliens. The Doctor and Rose are trapped with only Mickey on the outside who can help.

9G - The Long Game
The Doctor, Rose and Adam (who was invited aboard at the end of Dalek) materialise on Platform 5 200,000 years in the future.

Adam is left at home at the end having betrayed Rose and the Doctor.
