David Tennant's Current Projects

Doctor Who
On 15th May 2022 it was announced that David Tennant and Catherine Tate will return to Doctor Who for the show's 60th anniversary which it celebrates in November 2023.

Following a brief appearance at the end of Jodie Whitakker's final Doctor Who episode (The Power Of The Doctor) which premiered on Sunday 23rd October 2022, the BBC announced David Tennant and Catherine Tate will appear in three special 60th anniversary episodes. The Star Beast will premiere on BBC One and iPlayer on Saturday 25th November. The following Saturday (2nd December) will air Wild Blue Yonder and The Giggle will premiere on Saturday 9th December.

David is believed to have filmed his episodes during May and June 2022.

Also a Doctor Who spin-off series in conjunction with the 60th anniversary special will be broadcast. It is called Doctor Who: Unleashed and will be similar to Doctor Who Confidential.

Previously David's tenure as the Tenth Doctor was officially 6 years (2005 - 2010) plus he appeared in the 50th anniversary episode (The Day Of The Doctor) in November 2013.

Good Omens
Good Omens Series Two premiered on Prime Video on Friday 28th July in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.

David Tennant and Micheal Sheen starred in the original adaptation of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's comedy Good Omens. The first series was released first on Amazon Prime on Friday 31st May 2019 and BBC Two started broadcasting it on Wednesday 15th January 2020.

The six part television series was set in 2018 on the brink of an apocalypse as humanity prepares for a final judgement. But a somewhat fussy angel called Aziraphale (played by Michael Sheen) and Crowley (David Tennant's character who is a demon) aren't enthusiastic about the end of the world and can't seem to find the Antichrist.

Neil Gaiman adapted all six episodes of the series and served as showrunner.

Good Omens was Neil Gaiman's first novel and was written in collaboration with Terry Pratchett.

A second series of Good Omens was announced in June 2021. Once again it starred David Tennant and Michael Sheen as Crowley and Aziraphale. Neil Gaiman and Douglas Mackinnon were the showrunners.

Filming started on Monday 18th October 2021 and was scheduled for 18 weeks until Friday 11th March 2022 (with a three week hiatus for Christmas and New Year). However the final day of filming was Tuesday 1st March 2022. The production was based in Bathgate and filming took place in locations in the Central Belt of Scotland.
