Catherine Tate has been talking about the times she spent playing Donna Noble alongside David Tennant’s Tenth Doctor in Doctor Who . She was speaking today at a Q&A session at the Starfury fan convention Return To The Eleventh Hour in Birmingham earlier today. Catherine joined the world of Doctor Who for the 2006 Christmas special, The Runaway Bride and returned for a full series in 2008. Catherine told fans earlier in the day that David Tennant had been the one to persuade her to take part in today’s event. Catherine admitted that she didn’t watch Doctor Who as a child but became interested when he learned that David Tennant and Russell T. Davies were involved with the show. She had no idea at the time how much of an impact that Doctor Who would have on her life – she just jumped at the chance of appearing with David.

David Tennant's 2005 drama Casanova will be released on DVD in Germany on 15th July. You can view a trailer for the DVD here. It is dubbed in German. As an elderly librarian, Giacomo Casanova (played by the iconic Peter O'Toole), has a lot of exciting memories. A young servant girl, Edith (Rose Byrne), is treated to his lurid recollections and, before too long, she discovers that there's life in this old dog yet. It's enough to burst her bodice! But this is nothing compared to the escapades of the young, hot and horny master of seduction. The youthful Casanova (cheekily portrayed by David Tennant) cuts a swathe through the women of Europe with his dashing good looks and irrepressible confidence. But though the laydeez offer their full approval (usually expressed horizontally), the law is outraged by his antics. Made an outlaw for offences against government and church, Casanova leads the life of a fugitive. German Fans Click here to pre order your DVD The se

Production of David Tennant's new movie, What We Did On Our Holiday  caused travel chaos yesterday as the filmmakers shot a sequence along the busy A82 in Dumbartonshire. Motorists travelling between Dumbarton and Balloch ground to a halt as they were forced to wait while David was filmed in a Toyota being towed by an HGV. Police motorcyclists ran a rolling road block as the action took up both lanes of the carriageway. It's not the first time that David's presence has caused a traffic incident while filming. Last year, while he was shooting the ITV drama Broadchurch on location, a motorist was so preoccupied by the sight of him at the side of the road that they ran into the back of the car in front. David and co-star Olivia Colman said that no-one was hurt, although both drivers were too embarrassed to exchange insurance details and quickly drove away. What We Did On Our Holiday  is a co-production between BBC Films and Origin Pictures. David Tennant and Rosam

Broadchurch  was the show that had UK audiences gripped earlier this year.

They are in the midst of a difficult divorce, and have asked the kids to keep it a secret from their extended family. But as the inevitable feuds kick in, a completely unexpected turn of events involving the children causes further tensions to rise to the surface.
