Is The Inevitable About To Happen? (Possible SPOILERS)

Yep. I read where it's "officially" called "Born Again". I honestly can't remember where I read it, though.
And whether you count any of those mini's as "cannon" or whatnot, it's still David Tennant appearing as the character of The Doctor. Thus, my point...
The title comes from this year's Doctor Who reference book, Companions and Allies.

I've always looked at it as if they're on the DVD boxsets, they're canon.
You forgot The Infinite Quest. Even though it's animated, it's more of an episode then the ones you've mentioned.Tennant has been The Doctor in pretty much 50 episodes by the time he regenerates (13 episodes x 3 + 3 Xmas Specials + 4 2009 Specials + "Born Again", "Attack of the Graske", "Music of the Spheres", and "Time Crash"). That's a large volume for a short period of time, thus it seems like he's been around longer than he has, actually. I agree it's time for him to go. Go out on top. Don't wait until he's worn out the welcome. He leaves now, and we remember the enthusiastic Doctor Who fan who actually got to live the dream. I will always prefer Tom Baker in City of Death over Tom Baker in his final season...
But, that's just my opinion.
Just spotted this from Benjamin Cook's* Twitter for last Friday; the day the scene was supposed to be shot:
"In sun-drenched London. Just met an old friend. Been a while! She's looking well.
Then tonight we're in studio. Should be interesting..."
"Lunch was rosy. Mmm, chips! Lovin' London. Nice change from Cardiff. Off to Southbank in a couple of hours. Here for a while yet, though..."
*DWM interviewer, auother of "The Writer's Tale" etc.

I wouldn't read between the lines too much, if I was you.Just spotted this from Benjamin Cook's* Twitter for last Friday; the day the scene was supposed to be shot:

I think it's probably safe to say that if he was really with her he wouldn't be dropping massively unsubtle hints about it. But then again it could be the old double-bluff.
I was with him when he posted those updates, and we'd both be in trouble if he'd revealed (or even hinted at) any secret filming . . .

That answers that question!
Well here we go. La Piper, Tennant and Camille Coduri have been shooting on the Tyler's housing estate tonight; which thankfully suggests a flashback* rather than the unbreakable barrier being broken again.
*Hopefully a one scene job a la Sarah-Jane.
EDIT: It appears that the scene is set in the gap between "The Christmas Invasion" and "New Earth".

Jackie and Rose wish each other a Happy New Year and Rose tells her not to stay out all night.
EDIT: Rose walks past the Doctor. He staggers in surprise. "You alright mate," she asks. "What year is it," he asks. "2005," she replies.
Considering she was uncertain of him until the end of the ep it seems like it's essentially it's a flashback to the beginning of the romance? Which works for me.
Update again. The full scene.
Rose walks past the Doctor. He staggers in surprise. "You alright mate," she asks. "What year is it," he asks. "2005," she replies. "You know what? I bet you're going to have a really great year," he says.
So basically a one-scene cameo as part of the "farewell tour" other scenes shot seem to indicate he's taking at the end of his last episode.

This sort of goes against what Captain Jack did which was to NOT intefere with Rose before he meets her(Sound of drums). Plus, Rose runs into 10 before the regeneration of nine so she should be asking questions.
Ofcourse it's not too much of an interference. All Captain Jack did was watch her grow up from afar.

It sounds like he's not really interfering, though. And I doubt Rose would remember a random man she said "you all right, mate?" to in the dark.
Sounds to me like he's flashing back through his companions the way Baker and Davison did; only this time the flashbacks are somehow tangible, so he gets to interact with them, however briefly.
