Having David Tennant in the cast as Big Baddie Sir Tony Baddingham doesn't hurt either The series has done for posh, horrible Brits what Shogun has done for Medieval Japan It ends on a cliffhanger, covering only half of the 800-page novel's story, that's very different from the book's, and that's for good reason Every[...]

It's a Marvel Universe for British women – Cooper has written eleven novels in her Rutshire series, many featuring recurring former Olympian showjumper Sir Rupert Campbell-Black, the "most handsome man in England" and inveterate womanizer, cad, and bounder.

This has been the case with every Doctor and Companion for every year the series has been on the air, whether it was David Tennant, Matt Smith, or Peter Capaldi That's why Davies is still optimistic that Gatwa will return for a third season, and Gatwa cannot say whether he's in the third season yet[...]

David Tennant has been on the promotions round hyping the upcoming Disney Plus adaptation of Dame Jilly Cooper's hugely popular (in the UK) 1980s bonkbusters novel Rivals, which premieres on the streamer (and Hulu) in October and looks all set to be every bit as risqué as the novel Rivals is the second out of ten of Cooper's[...]

What does that mean? Keep reading.

During the David Tennant and Billie Piper-starring second series of the long-running BBC series, Edwards's voice can be heard in the 11th episode – 2006's "Fear Her" (directed by Euros Lyn and written by Matthew Graham) Earlier rumblings were that the BBC would edit out Edwards's voice from the Doctor Who episode Meanwhile, the BBC[...]

When the Master (John Simm) ages the Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) thousands of years into Nobby, it's the power of prayer that restores him, Christ-like The Doctor cradles the dead Master like a pieta On the Starship Titanic, The Doctor is lifted into the air by a pair of (robot) golden angels to save the[...]

It began in "Wild Blue Yonder" when the damaged TARDIS groaned for the first time after the Fourteenth Doctor (David Tennant) and Donna (Catherine Tate) landed on the ship near the void where the Doctor originally banished Sutekh The TARDIS vanished because Sutekh had seized it Every time you heard the TARDIS groaned, during "The[...]

In 2022 alone, he had two Who-adjacent TV series: he wrote two Inside Man for Netflix starring David Tennant (not as a Doctor) and Stanley Tucci, and executive produced with his partner Sue Virtue The Devil's Hour for Prime, a grimdark crime mystery starring Peter Capaldi as a serial murderer Both series are variations on[...]

Ahh, Doctor Who, everyone missed David Tennant, so Russell T Davies brought him back for one last hurrah in three 60th Anniversary Specials that were needed to herald a transition from the previous era that began with Davies' revival of the show in 2005 and prepare for the Disney+ Big Budget global streaming era But[...]

During the final 60th Anniversary Special of Doctor Who, "The Giggle," something happened that changed everything: bi-generation! The Fourteenth Doctor (David Tennant) didn't die from his fatal wound but healed, and the Fifteenth Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) split off from him, leaving him alive and well to live out his life naturally and heal from centuries[...]

The production had a larger standing set for the TARDIS, so the interior got bigger; the Ninth and Tenth Doctors (Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant) got a semi-organic coral design that was otherwise no-nonsense and practical. Then it changed into a cozier, almost homey design for the Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith) and a darker, more steampunk design for[...]

Even the last – and only time – Davies had the Doctor deal with New Year's, he killed off David Tennant, or rather, the Tenth Doctor.  It seems Davies knew something we didn't when he insisted on making Christmas Specials an annual event. Christmas is magic for Doctor Who New Year's Day, not so much. [...]

By the time the credits rolled on the final David Tennant (Fourteenth Doctor) & Catherine Tate (Donna Noble)-starring, Russell T Davies-penned 60th anniversary special, we had a very interesting situation on our hands While Ncuti Gatwa's Fifteenth Doctor was able to take off in the TARDIS to eventually meet up with Millie Gibson's Ruby Sunday in[...]

Even David Tennant never liked it David Bradley came closer to recapturing Hartnell's air of mischievousness in Steven Moffat's "Twice Upon Time". "The Two Doctors" was a mini-event in an attempt to boost the series' ratings at a time when the series was starting to slide It marked Patrick Troughton's final appearance as the Time Lord[...]
