Billie Piper covers the Survival Mode issue

Billie Piper has led anything but an ordinary life. The pop star-turned-actor was just 15 when she became the youngest-ever artist to debut at number one on the UK Singles Chart, before going onto star in the likes of ‘Doctor Who’ and ’Secret Diary of a Call Girl’. But now, Piper is the one calling the shots when it comes to creating some of the most interesting women on screen today.“

I think I maybe have a vested interest in it because of my own experiences, but I've always been interested in female-led stories, and quite often those stories have been quite tragic,” she tells HUNGER’s Digital Editor Nessa Humayun when speaking about the creation of her silver screen debut, ‘Rare Beasts’, and the hit television show, ‘I Hate Suzie Too’.
