New Doctor Who Trailer Reunites Billie Piper With Christopher Eccleston 6 Weeks After Shock Return

by

A fresh trailer has been released for an impending Big Finish audio drama titled Doctor Who: The Ninth Doctor Adventures: Snare, featuring Billie Piper’s character Rose alongside Christopher Eccleston as the Ninth Doctor. This is their first joint appearance since the initial season of the 2005 revival of Doctor Who on television. In this new series, consisting of 12 episodes, Rose and the Doctor will revisit familiar locations, collaborate with past associates, and confront some of the show’s most beloved adversaries. Fans can now watch the trailer for the entire run, offering a glimpse of Rose and the Doctor’s reunion before its August 2025 debut.

In the official summary for the episode, titled “Snare“, we find that Rose and the Doctor will revisit Powell Estate and encounter Kevin, the Tyler’s former neighbor who is currently cleaning out his father’s flat. As an ancient power begins to stir within the estate, events unfold such that Kevin unintentionally gets entangled in the duo’s time-travel escapade, ultimately deciding to join them.

Doctor Who‘s Rose and the Ninth Doctor Finally Reunite

The reunion takes place twenty years after Piper and Eccleston initially collaborated on the revival of “Doctor Who.” In conversation about the new audio drama, Eccleston—who departed the show following a solitary season—emphasized Rose’s significance for his portrayal of the Doctor and her impact on him. “I am thrilled to be recording additional adventures for the Ninth Doctor alongside Billie,” he stated. “I don’t believe my Doctor could exist without Rose. He is a ‘one man, one companion’ type of alien. We have delved into his solitary existence at Big Finish, but there is resilience, bravery, and deep empathy in Billie as Rose that makes me continue with this role. They complement each other.

Piper stated: “There couldn’t be a more ideal moment for Rose to reconnect with her initial Doctor than now. It’s been twenty years since she first stepped into the TARDIS and embarked on an adventure, and here we are once more, Chris and I, prepared to enjoy exploring the universe – and encountering its creatures – together.

Billie Piper’s comeback as Rose Tyler is fitting, considering the surprising finale of Season 15, where Ncuti Gatwa’s Doctor seemingly transformed into a character portrayed by Billie Piper at the end. The precise implications for the series remain unclear, whether this represents a fresh manifestation of Rose, the Doctor, the Moment, the Bad Wolf entity, or something else entirely is yet to be disclosed. Patient fans will probably need to wait for clarification, but in the interim, an audio drama offers a chance to experience Piper once more in Doctor Who.

For many years, Big Finish has been responsible for producing audio dramas based on Doctor Who. In 2021, they introduced a new series called Doctor Who: The Ninth Doctor Adventures, marking the return of Christopher Eccleston to his role as the Ninth Doctor since he left the television series in 2005. Prior to this, Big Finish debuted Doctor Who: The Tenth Doctor Adventures, where David Tennant and Catherine Tate reunited, years before their reunion for the 60th anniversary special. Additionally, Tennant later collaborated with Billie Piper in subsequent seasons of the show. Most recently, Big Finish announced a new series called Doctor Who: The Thirteenth Doctor Adventures, featuring Jodie Whittaker and Mandip Gill reprising their roles as the Thirteenth Doctor and Yasmin Khan in the TARDIS.
