Effulgent. EFFULGENT. David Tennant just used the word effulgent in a sentence. THIS MAN.
I'm always stunned when they refer to Doctor Who as a children's show.
Remember when the daleks sent Captain Jack into the next dimemsion?
Steven Mophat is great at writing complex intricate stories that surprised but Rustle T Davies's talent is at writing characters, which is what doctor who really is.
its Moffat not mophat Russel T Davies
RTD.
Steven Mophat and Rustle T Davies
Just saw David Tennant in "Single Father". Fantastic work, simply superb. You'd never get a role like that in Hollywood. I'd rather see Tennant as a working actor in quality roles, than a Hollywood star.
Love Russell T Davies.
moffat is being a bitch nowadays
I think RTD and DT have some great chemistry I can't wait to see if they work together again
Do you remember this comment?! :D
Well… you see Rebecca…
David's unironed shirt reminds me of DI Alec Hardy.
Foreshadowing?
Lets not leave children scarred for life...
*puts on gas mask*
muuuuummmmy? Are you there mummy?
If you watch David's behind the scenes vlogs for the specials you see just how emotional it made him, which in turn makes me emotional.
David looks tiny sitting next to Russell haha
which is really funny cos David is 6' 1" (or so says google :) )
Oh, it’s nothing compared to Steven Moffat. He looks like a midget next to him.
While I've often had my doubts about RTD's writing, there's no doubting his commitment and passion; and Dave is without doubt the best thing to happen to the series for a very very long time. So, lovely relaxed interview, and it actually makes them glad to see them go.. in a good way.
Great interview with 2 legends!
Thanks for posting.
what a lovely interview, thanks for posting
David Tennant's laugh at 18:15 is the best thing I have ever heard. Ever! :)
A great interview thanks for sharing David and Russel are Legends !!!!
Excellent video interview. David & Russell you are to be congratulated on a very informative, tactful and memory-making interview and /or follow-up to the years that you both participated in Dr. Who.
To the person or persons that recorded and/or prepared this video --kudos and many thanks.
Thank you so much for posting this - so interesting - and so great to see david so relaxed!! Well done
God was it ever crazy! I completely agree; gal two rows in front of me during the panel was in tears because she didn't get to ask a question! Totally nuts. Lucky you for meeting Davies.
bless David's heart he's so cute :)
All the questions I would have asked, really. :-)
Thank you so, so much, Mr. Metzger.
David and Russell will ALWAYS be loved!
Great interview! The bloke asking the questions knew his stuff!
Well said, there were times that Dr Who was just a punchline, but my how the worm has turned! It is now rock solid. Let us see what the brilliant and talented Moffat brings to the already huge success left behind by Russell and David. They kicked it up several notches! Well done gentlemen.
David was my first doctor and is my favorite doctor... he was amazing and showed a side of the doctor that i came to love...so well done sir well done...
fascinating interview,really interesting !
love tennant and davies and hope they go on to work together again.
Excellent interview!
wow that was one brilliant interview :-)
Never seen this interview before its brilliant and when he says when are u going to be working together again here we are 14 years later russel and david on doctor who again 😆
Aw you know, I was filled with pride to hear an American call The Doctor "the coolest guy in the galaxy".
Hahaha, I think Tennant's waistline certainly got bigger in the 50th anniversary, the suit looked so tight on him. It didn't even feel right at all when Matt's doctor called him "proper skinny". Still waiting for Russell to write another script for David.... This is like waiting for George RR Martin to write the next GoT book.
9:03 HAHAHA I LOVE his laugh. Its so funny and cute and makes me want him even more ;)
I love how they evaded the question at the end for like 4 mins.
@havering1 thanks for the tip. I checked it out and it sounds a TAD awkward but definitely makes me happy to hear.
RTD and David. Very nice, guys!
I've watched a few of these recent episodes on DVD. I think they're a great addition to the old series, among the best.
Chris regenerated, and I felt like I could never accept David as The Doctor. And then one season later I was totally drawn into David's amazing portrayal. Now I've almost forgotten about Chris.
And then David regenerated and it was an incredible scene.
But it was just so sad.
I'm going to miss David so much...
Tennant is wearing my old school uniform!
I love those two :P though when together they are slightly insane. David is so amazing :)
These two look like father and son! haha.
Did any Torchwood fan notice that the lady in the beginning who says "Which is what?" is the same actress as Gwen Cooper's mum?
Wow. This is the first time I've read a youtube comment and completely agreed with everything it said. You must be an awesome person.
RTD!!!
He is such an inspiration. I love his writing~
@Prence *s* know what you mean! I still haven't decided who my very best-ever Doctor is yet - David or Tom. No doubt that DT's are the best shows ever [so far!]- FX, music, the technology is awesome, the writing is allowed to go into areas previously forbidden - it all came together beautifully and DT crowned it marvellously. But Doctor Who was always cutting-edge, even back in the 60s!
After Christopher left I thought the same thing, but now after David was on for such a long time IMO he is the only Doctor. I will truly miss David as Dr Who.
These two are such fun to watch. XD
I'll miss David :(
David and Christopher will always be the best doctors.
Brilliant interview.
Damn, quite clearly in HD you can see the 'girl holding the baby' in the trailer is NOT Rose. :(
@Alithe That was Lindsay Duncan. Mary Cooper was played by Sharon Morgan. :)
I grew up with Tom Baker as The Doctor in the seventies, but David Tenant as The Doctor? Brilliant!
I have Single Father and I absolutely love every moment of it!!! I agree with David and Russell about knowing about a film, really I don't want to know so I can be surprised and shocked by the movie or show. I hate it when the plot is given away!!! I loved every time I saw a new show of Doctor Who because it was always new and exciting!! I would have loved to seen David and Russell at the 2009 Comic Con!!! I watched Doctor Who when I was a kid and Tom Baker was my Doctor and now David is!!
@Prence Chirstopher was my 1st Dr (excepting clips I'd glanced at) and I was really worried when he left. But David just blew every1 else out of the water, he is the defining Doctor of my generation, in yrs 2 come ppl will talk of him the same way Tom Baker was spoken of b4 2005. I can't say anything bad aboout Chris though, David just exceeded him. Smith is actually good too, not as good but worthy successor
yay!
Congrats to David on his wedding!!!
Everyone is capable of feelings. Even if it is a little bit. So the The Tenth Doctor is one of the best, regardless on his feelings towards another person.
I was so sad to see them go.
I miss his doctor so much...
David Tennant is hands down my favorite actor in existence!! but i have to tip my hat to Matt Smith because he will always be my Doctor. But on the other hand...Tennant was absolutely brilliant! So both are very loved in my heart! :)
@TheSeverusSnape I fully agree with you in that David has done brilliant work without being in Hollywood!! I'd rather see him in work like Single Father, United, & his various other projects like Decoy Bride. He is such a talented actor both in Theatre & TV that I think he won't have to wait long for work!! Quality work is better than being in Hollywood too many remakes, movies that are over done like Friday the 13, & Halloween Ugh! There is no variety, imagination, & no guts to be different.
9:03 the giggle! the giggle!
*faints*
Finally someone brought up Littleradge
'HeHe Yah!'
Aww....David
100% agree!!
These two really make great television together. Russell will come up with something to involve David, again. Even if its only 1 episode of a new series. Or a recurring character, perhaps.
Does anyone else find it a bit odd becoming accustomed to seeing David without the sideburns? Or is that just me?
I noticed that toooo!!
Distinct creases in strange parts of the shirt front and some wrinkles across the shoulders. Wonder who did his ironing or packed his case?? :)
Also noticed 4 buttons set close together but the rest of the placket had the buttons spaced usually. Why?
Plus, gotta love a man who can drop "effulgent" into a tv interview!!
a 20 minute YT vid!WOW!
@Prence this happened in the old days, too - each was Doctor for about three years, and eveyrone said, "they'll never replace him" but they managed it each time - it just takes some adjusting to. Chris Ecclestone didn't really stay long enough to imprint himself as "the" Doctor, so for you young 'uns. this will be your first time/
Does anyone else think the interviewer is just a random lookalike of David Tennant with Russel T Davies glasses on?
14:24 Russels like "Damn right"
anybody know what those two keep looking at...cuz they do it like perfectly in sync its hilarious!!!
David's giggle at 9:03 ASDGGJ
More work for David in front of the camera. Why isn't he doing more? Voiceover for Scrooge McDuck??
Waste of talent.
His range is amazing. His looks are drop dead gorgeous.
Get him doing more movies, TV.
nope. it isn't out yet. i think it comes out this Christmas.
I can't really imagine David doing the adventures from series 5. Surely I mean they would be slightly different, but it's likely that all the same adventures, roughly, were had. And Matt Smith just seems so much of a better fit for Steven Moffat's Doctor Who.
i didn't notice it in the Doctor but in Torchwood it was very obvious.
I couldnt agree more with T.Davies, its better not to read spoilers, synopsis & reviews, its better to just wait and see.
@Nimue1985 I agree. David Tennant was the best of the doctors I know. When he was regenerating I was so mad. The new guy is not that good in my opion.
I've just got really hyped for the Doctor Who universe now. I just heard that Torchwood is definatly getting a series 4 as well as a spin off set in America, but using the orignal production team. But the cherry on top is that River Song, the Doctor's future companion (wife?????) is gonna b in Series 5. CXan some1 set me straight on something. Russel T Davies has stepped down as Executive producer on Dr who, but is he still involved with its spin offs or has he just left all of the shows
Atleast Russel is still writing Torchwood and Sarh Jane Adventures!
Where are those scenes from in the begining if the video
My one complant about Russel was how he pretty much killed off, par one or two, Daleks. They were my favourite villains, nd when i startedgetting into he show, they were the first ones I saw.
i'm agreeing with xokatyxo. It would have been nice that Tennant stuck around for another year. That was supposed to be the whole deal. The BBC gave a half season to accomodate him and he just goes and quits.
However, it'll be interesting to see how it goes. The final episodes... the last moments. He was the most popular Doctor since the great Tom Baker.
So it'll be exciting and sad for sure.
looks ace
@rocklee1397 no,
i don't think we do,
he was a very good doctor and i respect his work ALOT
@makesomenoiiise
if you mean accents: English in England, Scottish in Scotland, Welsh in Wales and Irish in Ireland.
But then you have regional accents; for example, someone from Somerset sounds completely different to someone from Yorkshire.
Steven Moffat has written all my favorites: Girl in the Fireplace, Blink, and The Empty Child. The show is in good hands.
You were so right. S1-10 was the golden age.
Did Russel leak Matt Smith being the new doctor in this vid! This video came out 4 months before the end of time. I wonder if he got into trouble for that
Yeah I know that, I'm english myself. I was wondering what the guy meant by "its common in britain", but I figured it out now.
he looks so tiny next to Russel lol
Not it wasn't. That's Lindsay Duncan as Captain Adalaide Brooke at 0:21, whereas Gwen's mum was played by Sharon Morgan.
Yes and Russell T Davies is Welsh. I'd be curious as to whether many Americans could distinguish a Welsh accent from an English one though, and Russell's isn't an especially strong one anyway. Maybe it's like asking Brits to distinguish Canadian from US English. We can but only if we've been told what to listen for.
I really miss him as the Doctor. I hope I can get used to 11 before he has to go.
so the doctor knows that he will regenerate in that episode
Clearly, that would be a GREAT decision!
Shame both are gone, other than Tom Baker, Tennant was an amazing Doctor.
Well the phone conversation between the Doctor and Master.. altough that may have been a indepenent effort from John Simm :S uh.. i dunno. And lots of other little subtle things.
@Nautilus1972 Why would two men kissing upset children? At least, if a man and woman kissing isn't upsetting, then why would two men kissing be? The only reason it would be upsetting is if their parents told them it should be, which is ridiculously bad parenting IMHO.
Anyway, back on topic, I'm going to miss David so much. From the few episodes with Matt Smith, and based on the year with Chris Eccleston, I can honestly say David was my absolute favorite Doctor.
-IMP ;) :)
@Linmae90 - reminds me of when Hamster is talking to Jeremy Clarkson
@Nimue1985 me too! I had to skip school I was so distraught!
It's weird that his normal Scottish accent sounds so put on after hearing him on the show. :P
The day I see his last episode I will cry harder then I did when him and Rose splitt up.
*sigh*
WHY CAN'T HE STAY!?!?!
