SOB! It’s not long now before we have to say goodbye to the best Doctor Who who’s ever stepped inside the Tardis – David Tennant.

But, although he will be regenerating into Matt Smith at the end of two Christmas episodes, that doesn’t mean we’ve seen the last of lovely David.

No doubt he’ll pop up in plenty of other dramas, not least reprising his RSC role of Hamlet, which he performed on stage at Stratford-upon-Avon, for a three-hour BBC2 film.

And if the acting work ever dries up, he has a future as a game show host. He put in some practice presenting a special edition of Never Mind The Buzzcocks.

To ease him in, it helps that David knows a couple of the guest panellists rather well.

One is Catherine Tate, who plays his Doctor Who sidekick Donna. We’ll see plenty of them over Christmas, as they both appear in the Doctor specials and David guest stars in her sketch show special, playing the Ghost of Christmas Present in Nan’s Christmas Carol, a spoof of the Dickens classic in which the foul-mouthed pensioner plays Scrooge,

Another Buzzcocks guest is Bernard Cribbins, who plays Donna’s grandfather and also features in the Doctor Who Christmas episodes.

They’re joined by Jamie Cullen, Jo Whiley and captains Phill Jupitus and Noel Fielding.

Here’s two cute adverts of David saying Merry Christmas on BBC One:

One and two.

DAVID Tennant is to be a guest on Britain’s most famous radio show.

The Paisley actor will star on Desert Island Discs on Sunday, December 27, in what is another accolade for the actor whose star is constantly rising.

An appearance on the long-running BBC Radio Four programme, which famously asks guests to choose eight favourite music recordings, is reserved for those in the public eye who have reached the peak of their professions.

Presented by David’s fellow Scot Kirsty Young, it famously takes the form of an interview interspersed with excerpts from the eight chosen discs.

On the surface a gentle interview, the show has often seen guests talking about intimate aspects of their lives. Some have even been reduced to tears when recalling sadness or upset.

Writing about 38-year-old David’s appearance on the show, the Radio Times says: “When David Tennant was a boy, he tells how he kept a little book in which he noted what was in the pop charts each week.

“Once he was given a big box of chocolates and he entered all of the contents and marked off what he’d eaten and when.

“He was, he confesses, a geek.

“But it was as youthful geek that he announced to his parents that he wanted to be Doctor Who.

“The rest is time-and-relative-dimensions-in-space history.”

As revealed in the Paisley Daily Express, David was a Doctor Who fan from an early age.

He often wrote about the BBC sci-fi show in school essays, and even asked his grandmother to knit him a long scarf like the one worn by Tom Baker when he starred as the Doctor.

David, of course, went on to stardom when he took the role on himself to great acclaim.

He is now in Hollywood filming a new comedy drama dubbed Rex is Not Your Lawyer.

At the end of each edition of Desert Island Discs, guests are asked to name the one disc from their chosen eight that they would take to the desert island.

They are also told they will be given the Bible and all of Shakespeare’s works to take with them.

But they must also name another book they would want to have with them on the island.

And guests are asked to choose a luxury that would give them some pleasures while cast away.

To find out what David chooses, tune into Desert Island Discs at 11.15am on December 27.

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.”
