A Matter of Time: David Tennant

(18/04/1971)

Thirty-nine years ago today, David Tennant was born in Bathgate in Scotland. He would go on to become a famous British actor, most widely known in his role as the tenth incarnation of the Doctor, in the long running British science-fiction television series ‘Doctor Who’, which he played from 2005 to 2010.

Tennant’s name was originally put forward as a candidate for the ninth Doctor in 2004, although that role eventually went to Christopher Eccleston. After Eccleston announced on 31st March 2005 that he would not be returning for a second series, the BBC confirmed David Tennant as his replacement in a press release on 16th April 2005. He first appeared as the tenth Doctor at the end of ‘The Parting of the Ways’.

The Daily Mirror reported that David Tennant was forbidden from attending any Doctor Who fan conventions, to avoid the chance that he could accidentally reveal any plot ideas during the filming of the series. He said at the ‘Children in Need’ concert that his favourite Doctor Who story is ‘Genesis of the Daleks’, from Tom Baker’s first series.
