David Tennant has expressed his aspirations for his new Fox TV drama  Gracepoint  the American remake of the award winning Broadchurch  in which he also starred. David plays Emmett Carver, a similar role to Broadchurch  cop Alec Hardy, though now a Californian police detective investigating the murder of a child in a small coastal community.
