DAVID TENNANT puts on a happy face, in Doctor Who Magazine 406 – ON SALE NOW!

Talking exclusively to DWM, the Doctor himself, DAVID TENNANT, talks candidly about presenting this year’s Comic Relief...

“I’m co-presenting this year’s TV extravaganza , on BBC One on Friday the 13th – which won’t be unlucky this year, I promise... Live telly is always exhilarating, but I’m sure this will be even more so, because I’m expected to be fronting it – well, the first hour or so, which does give me some more responsibility...” How does he think he’ll cope presenting alongside Davina McCall? She is, after all, the Loudest Woman on Telly. “Well, I’ve had a word with the sound men to turn my microphone up louder, so I’m hoping that should equalise it out a bit! It’ll be a challenge!”
