David Tennant as the Doctor Who
"From that point on I absolutely didn't want to do anything else," says David. "It's odd when I think about it. I don't quite know where it came from or how I could be so sure that becoming an actor could happen, but it never seemed an unlikely or unusual thought to have. It was probably to do with being brought up to believe that things were possible and you could be whatever you wanted to be."
"It is a thrill to be part of it, I keep thinking 'It isn't real is it?'. It has been very curious to sit watching the titles roll with my name on them."

- Absolutely in the fan club. I hope against hope that he'll return as Doctor Who for some kind of special during the 50th anniversary next year - fingers crossed. :-)

- A couple of years ago I went to a Dr Who exhibition in Cardiff and they had one of the suits DT wears in the series on display. I'm 5'6" and it looked like it would have been too short even on someone of my height...in view of that, I'm really surprised that he's supposedly over 6' tall - or perhaps it shrunk when it was dry cleaned or something :) Whatever, DT was a great Dr Who!
