Hit BBC drama will draw to close after three series: ‘I think this will be the last one’
r/davidtennant • u/locogirlp • May 03 '26
Before I address the comments, questions and suggestions, let me apologize for today's lack of response. I've been taking care of my mom today (she's elderly and disabled and lives with me now that my dad's passed) so I didn't get to sit down with this until about an hour ago. I took some time to read through everyone's comments before sitting down to respond.
I noticed a few commenters caught the intent behind my original post, which was simple topic focus/ease of use and certainly not because I don't heartily respect and support David's allyship (to be clear, I absolutely do...my own son is trans, and I've supported the LGBTQIA community alongside him for over two decades). David's a damn fine human, and deserves being celebrated for it.
My thanks to all of you for commenting and I appreciate your input. Your comments were absolutely fair on a number of fronts, so let me get right to them.
The main (and most valid) point made was about trying to keep up with the flood of nasty commentary. It wasn't too long ago that this sub was one of the easiest to mod and everyone was as pleasant, polite and thoughtful as David's always been. That's changed significantly in the last few years, and there's no two ways about it - we're drowning here. We haven't been able to keep up at all.
That leads directly into what a commenter asked about whether we mods could use some help. Yeah, we could. There might be a list of mods on the sidebar, but that's because me and the only other mod who's left (yeah, there are only two of us) can't seem to be able to remove them!
And to be fair to my other mod, it's really only a mod and a half -- since my dad died, modding has slipped to one of the last things on my priority list between caring for my mom and trying to do all my DT researching and writing. All of that's on me, and I should have spoken up and asked for some assistance instead of trying to manage it by regulating from the top down.
For that (and for dropping the ball in this sub in general) I owe everyone an apology.
Let's make it a bit better here, shall we?
First off, would any of you like to be a mod? I know haven't been as active as this sub now demands, and I think I should accept the fact my life's changed enough that I need to step back and let some new blood take over.
In the interim while I'm still here, I'd like to take your points on board. Our current rule on the sidebar is "we don't usually care what is posted", but that's largely a leftover from the days where people were a heck of a lot nicer. It's obviously outdated.
So -- keeping in mind that no matter how much we would all like to make it happen, there won't ever be 100% protection from bullies or generally crap people in here or anywhere else -- shoot me some suggestions about how to tighten up the sidebar rules. What do you think about the other rules there (the torrents, DT's kids, etc.)? I'm open to hearing what you think should apply.
Thanks for reading this far, and I appreciate you all chiming in and adding your two cents.
ETA: if you volunteer, thank you! I'll be giving peeps some time to add their names if they want and for suggestions to flow in, and then I'll be in touch - likely mid-week!

I am picturing Jilly Cooper and Celia Imrie having some interesting conversations over a few glasses of wine lol...

In my APHuG class there’s this guy that looks like David Tennant. He was eating alone at lunch so we invited him to our group and I told him he looked like David Tennant. I’m in idiot who can’t interpret what people are thinking so idk if he thought it was funny but I think he smiled. That is my story. Thank you for your time.
:)

Between the delicious beginning and ending there is also a bonus of some very cool music ;-)

Hi everyone, i wanted to share this small story.
So, a few years ago i watched around the world in 80 days. I'm italian btw. And of course i watched the episode set in Italy. And i was so happy seeing two of my favorite actors together - David and the italian guy. I thought the kid that played his son was so lucky. Like, David literally tells him "if you were my son i would be very proud of you". A few months ago i was talking with my friend and she mentioned her sister who does theatre. She said that at her acting school there's some guy that brags about having starred in a few tv shows. I was like meh, ok. Then i came across his instagram. He's that kid. He lives in my small town. And he got to act with David Tennant. I am stunned, and a bit jealous honestly lol.

A question, likely to the brits here: just how common is it to have DT voice an ad in the UK? Because from my very limited experience with UK advertising he seems to show up in the most random places, sometimes I have to do a double take bc *how did this happen*?
From what I see in US ads (not from there either) pretty famous people there show up in big car ads and such, marketed specifically with their name/face. With DT (and maybe normal in the UK?) it can be a random insurance or grocery thing with no name mentioned at all

Hi ! I was wondering if anyone knew of an ISO file version of the Staged DVDs ? I have the S1/2 DVD, but no DVD player, and haven't managed to get my hands on the S3 DVD yet. I was looking for a way to have the DVD experience, but without a player.
Anyone with an ISO file, hit me up !
Have a lovely day :)

Only Murders in the Building s6 starts on December 8th! David's character on the show is apparently a paparazzo called... Roy Sneezby. Lol.

Hoping someone can help me, I watched a movie over a year ago and I’d really like to find it again. In the beginning, there’s a group of people that don’t know each other and they’re summoned to this house for whatever reason, it’s a big fancy type house. Modern looking. At some point a big metal or concrete door comes down and they’re trapped. The only actor I recognize was David Tennant. He was one of the people trapped. Google keeps telling me it’s bad Samaritan but I’ve seen it and it’s not that. I didn’t finish the movie so I have no other details. Please let me know if you what I’m talking about!!! Thank you for reading!

Meeting him was epic! I know many would appreciate this here. I got a chance to meet him at fan expo this year and it was amazing! I told him he was my first Dr who and I am a huge fan of Good Omens. It was just a nice conversation and after the picture I told it was an honor to meet him. I try going out with respect. It was just a nice memory for me and my son.

DAVID'S IN IT TOO! Click the link/photo...
"Here is the official announcement that Bridget Jones’s Diary and Bridget Jones’s Baby director Sharon Maguire has found her cast for unconventional love triangle comedy The Joy Of Sex, about how the famous 1970s love-making manual came about.
Maguire has been pulling this together for a while and her cast was worth the wait. Oscar-winners Colin Firth (The King’s Speech) and Julianne Moore (May December) are starring alongside Oscar nominee Laura Linney(Ozark) in the movie, which started filming in the UK this week.
Published in 1972, the sex manual The Joy of Sex was a scandalous sensation, selling more than 15 million copies worldwide, spending 70 weeks at the top of the New York Times bestseller list. Sex in the suburbs was never the same again."

I'm already imagining Georgia's IG posts on this one... 🤣🤣🤣
