I know he's got a lot of fans but is anyone else just a little bit tired of seeing/hearing David Tennant all the time?

He's on everything. adverts/voiceovers/dramas/the lot.

i even bought DC a dvd of pirates cartoon instead of an easter egg and he was on that TOO!

theres always a 'flavour of the month' where the same persons all the time on tv and radio and mags- the myclean asses, carol voderman,etc etc get their 15 mins of fame but DT....come on!

you can tell Im soooo not a fan.

as the doctor, well, he was avarage, thankfully we have the brill Matt Smith now, DCs watching 'how to train your dragon' atm on cbbc and i swear his voice is on this too!!!!!

He's on my shovel list.
Everywhere but the Christmas crib

AnyFucker · 12/04/2013 18:20

I ain't a fan in the first place of the ratfaced pipsqueak

ChocsAwayInMyGob · 12/04/2013 18:20

No problem at all. I love DT. He is great in Broadchurch- he does the angst filled detective thing really well.

JohnSnowsTie · 12/04/2013 18:21

He's an example of someone I used to like before he became completely over exposed.

xxDebstarxx · 12/04/2013 18:21

OMG yes! He is everywhere. I'm sure he'll be in the kitchen when I go to make food in a minute too! Grin

superbagpuss · 12/04/2013 18:21

he's one of my allowed three, sorry but I think he's lovely!

mrsjay · 12/04/2013 18:22

I used to love him i really did but good god if i see his squinty face and faux accent once more i may tip over the edge , I couldn't get into broadchurch because of him I honeslty was a huge DT as The Doctor but shhhh dont tell the dds I hate him now, Grin

piprabbit · 12/04/2013 18:23

He's all over R4 and R4Extra like a rash - but I rather like his voice so I'm happy. I find it's better without the pictures Grin.

marjproops · 12/04/2013 18:25

YANBU. I'd guess that every so often a certain celeb gets a "push" by their agent and you suddenly seem them everywhere! You'll get Lorraine Kelly or Twiggy on the front of every magazine for a while, then it goes on to someone else.

OTTMummA · 12/04/2013 18:34

Yanbu, so weasley and sharp featured,, ugh
He is also too animated in everything he does, doesn't he ever get tired?
He doesn't look like he can believe his luck either,,, but he is also starting to believe the hype.

RedHelenB · 12/04/2013 18:36

YABU!!

headintheclouds · 12/04/2013 18:40

YANBU ,cant bloody stand him...agree with pipsqueak ,I really dont get why he's so popular.But it'd be a funny old world if we all ' got ' the same blokes wouldnt it.

headintheclouds · 12/04/2013 18:42

pipsqueak.?? I meant chipstick ( already on the Friday wine!)Blush

fizzykola · 12/04/2013 18:43

YANBU. Even bloody twigs (tweaks?) in tree fu tom

Empress77 · 12/04/2013 18:44

YABU hes awesome.

marjproops · 12/04/2013 18:45

The same people get all the work: Stephen Fry, James McWotisface, Evan Davies, John Humphreys et al. They must have excellent agents - or are the BBC just lazy? Don't get me started on Martin Jarvis.

crashdoll · 12/04/2013 18:49

YANBU. I think he's awful in Broadchurch, whose bright idea was that?!

cardibach · 12/04/2013 18:52

I have only seen him (recently) in Broadchurch and some advert I can't remember. Is he really everywhere?
I like him, by the way.

marjproops · 12/04/2013 18:59
