First, we have an awesome new video of David talking about his character Pomfrey in St. Trinian’s II: The Legend of Fritton’s Gold. He’s quite sexist, yet very funny! Also, I added some scans of Doctor Who magazine 415 a while ago, take a gander

Video and scans here.

DAVID Tennant has regenerated – into a commemorative medal.
Royal Mint is producing the limited edition Doctor Who items, the first time TV characters have featured on their medals.
They are being produced as Tennant, the 10th Doctor, prepares to bow out of the Tardis in a two-part Christmas special.
He will regenerate into Matt Smith, the latest actor to take on the time-travelling sci-fi role.
As well as Tennant, the Daleks and the Doctor’s robot dog K-9 appear on the gold and silver medals.
Commemorative coin director Dave Knight said: “Just as the Doctor is timeless, so too is the enduring appeal of the TV series which continues to entertain audiences across the world.
“We hope fans everywhere will find these medals a fitting tribute not just to David Tennant, but to the whole Doctor Who story.”

Very interesting as it happens I’m a Heroes fan

It’s been a while since I’ve updated Tennantively with Tennantcast information – my bad!

A short episode this time! For this recording, Kelsey and Kari are there (kind of like old times) since Flossie can’t be with them because of a recording mix-up. But as her spirit is there, the two girls talk about David and Pudsey, reading bedtime stories (in which Kari has been waiting for this moment) and how David narrowly missed Zachary Quinto at the NTAs (in which Kelsey would have combusted and died from) but he’s still with the lovely Catherine Tate. They watched the St. Trinian’s II trailer (giggling like bmmad) and will be atching the rest of the video, plus Waters of Mars and Dreamland discussions will be on next time because Flossie threatened if she heard “waters” and “mars” in the same sentence. Of course picture comment of the day is always an inspirational moment and the big hub that started it all, Tennantively, has a brand spanking new layout!

On Christmas Eve he will be seen reading The Christmas Bear by Henrietta and Paul Stickland.

Tennant’s acclaimed portrayal of Hamlet, which was lauded on stage, will be screened on BBC2.

Viewers will see him bow out as BBC1’s Doctor Who this Christmas when he appears in a two-part story The End Of Time alongside veteran actor Bernard Cribbins

The special Christmas episodes will see the Doctor reunited with Donna Noble, played by comic actress Catherine Tate before he regenerates.

Smith will become the eleventh actor to appear as the Doctor on television when the new series of the popular show is aired on BBC next year.
