Rose Tyler: Earth Defence would have been a Doctor Who spin-off set some time after Rose's final parting from the Doctor at the conclusion of Doomsday. Based on dialogue in that final story, the series most likely was intended to feature Rose's life on the alternate Earth the Doctor had dubbed "Pete's World", working with that reality's version of the Torchwood Institute.
The series had been commissioned by BBC One but abruptly cancelled by Russell T. Davies, who decided that it would have lessened the impact of Doomsday. The spin-off was cancelled before Billie Piper had been formally approached. Ultimately, Piper agreed to return as Rose in the 2008 season.
