'''''Rose Tyler: Earth Defence''''' was the title given to a proposed, but ultimately aborted ''[[Doctor Who]]'' spin-off set some time after [[Rose Tyler|Rose]]'s final parting from the [[Tenth Doctor]] at the conclusion of ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]]''. | '''''Rose Tyler: Earth Defence''''' was the title given to a proposed, but ultimately aborted ''[[Doctor Who]]'' spin-off set some time after [[Rose Tyler|Rose]]'s final parting from the [[Tenth Doctor]] at the conclusion of ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|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]]. | Based on dialogue in that final story, the series most likely was intended to feature Rose's life on the [[Parallel universe|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''.
