Dear the Internet,

WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME ABOUT DAVID TENNANT'S NEW BBC SERIES WHERE HE IS A SINGLE FATHER, CLEVERLY ENTITLED SINGLE FATHER?

This is only the second week of the series so I will let you off with a warning, but I really expected better of you.

Love and Oh Look Those Are All of My Buttons Being Pushed,
Dira

David Tennant is Scottish? I didn't know! I always assumed he was English, until I listed to that clip.

[neotoma]

You never watched the Doctor Who Confidentials, did you? He would talk in his own accent, which is adorable.

[scrollgirl]

Well, I've never watched the Tenth Doctor at all, except the first ep with Martha, so that'd be a no. *g*

[dira]

His name isn't even Tennant--he was born David McDonald. If you like the accent, look on YouTube for David Tennant's video diary--he did one for each season he played the Doctor, and his accent is LOVELY.

:o

BECAUSE WE DID NOT KNOW

eeeeee

[words_unravel]

THIS.

[dira]

He is playing a character named Dave TYLER. IDEK WHAT TO DO WITH THIS.

I haven't finished watching the first episode yet? I guess that's not an excuse. But yeah, I saw it and went "Romance novel cliches with David Tennant? YES PLEASE."

[dira]

I was giving it several thumbs up by the time I finished watching the promo for next week! ♥

[epistrophia]

Because I (and nearly everyone I know) didn't watch it because "it looked like it was going to be depressing, and who needs that right now? When we could be watching shows with unlikely forensic science or celebrities learning how to dance?"

[dira]

Yes but David Tennant and children.

(It was heartbreaking, though, yes. But episode two has Lestrade!)

[missmollyetc]

I...do not like David Tennant?

[dira]

*shakes head sadly*

It's a good thing I love you. *g*

[missmollyetc]

::HUGS:: Yaaaay!


Also, happy birthday! You want I should write you something? :)

[dira]

Thank you! I am eating cookies for breakfast! :)

And, you know, only if you have time and it will make you happy and not more stressed. You can always write me birthdayfic next year. *g*

[missmollyetc]

Happy Birthday! <3 Cookies for breakfast is a very, very good start! I assume this means ice cream for lunch?


I...think I do? Gifts don't stress me out! It's your birthday! ::grins:: I can't swear it would be as awesome as Fluffy Kitten Time, though.

[dira]

Alas no ice cream for breakfast. I had to go to work. *g*

And, well, I shall love it whenever it turns up and whatever it turns out to be, darling. :)

[rossetti]

WE WERE WAITING TO MAKE SURE IT WAS GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU!!(??!?!)

[dira]

WELL OKAY I GUESS BUT THERE'S GOING TO BE LESTRADE THIS WEEK SO THAT PRETTY MUCH DOES IT! (!!!!!)

[grammarwoman]

Ack! I am so far behind in all things BBC. I haven't even seen Sherlock yet!

Oh, and a very happy birthday to you! *grin*

[dira]

Thank you! And I really liked Sherlock. Single Father, with only four one-hour episodes, will be even quicker to catch up on, when you get around to it!
