Today's Sitting Tennant

Posted on May 15, 2008 | 9 comments |

David Tennant

Today's Sitting Tennant comes from Who's T-Shirt Do You Think You Are? in which David Tennant rummage's through Oxfam shop clothes racks and tries to find the most retro, unpleasant T-shirt that he can. Is it a chocolate coloured Charlie's Angels? Or one of Roald Dahl's shameless old Tales of the Unexpected merchandising tie-ins? Informed minds want to know.

Spurred on by a comment by Toby on the last entry in the gallery, I'm now opening “Sitting Tennant” up to caption-writers as well as photograph hunters. Either wow us with your ability to find pictures of David Tennant sitting down, or amuse the assembled Algonquin roundtable that is this blog's readership* with your pithy remarks about the photo. Both would be delightful.

* Really. You are all very entertaining, you know.

    I have done the archive search. You launched the feature just to irritate me when I got back from holiday? I'm touched.

    I know of at least two others among the Buckley faithful who will disagree, but that "Kate Bush-The Kick Inside" pose just doesn't pull me in.....

    David Tennant sitting down irritates you? I'm shocked. Frankly, I thought it was the kind of thing you'd go for.

    Oh well, if you can get enough votes together to form a quorum against it, I'll put an end to it at once. At once, I tell you.

    "Buckley faithful"?

    They likes the medium not the messenger ;-)

    How 'bout if he wore red leg-warmers?

    I'll see what I can do. My Photoshop style is weak, even if my tiger style is strong.

    No, missing two weeks of... never mind.

    I can't come up with a caption exactly, but this picture does make me want to spin the carousel to look at all the other David Tennants in each section.

    But surely, the Medium Is Not Enough.

    Ooh. Catchy. Someone should do something with that.

    Incidentally, do you think "Tea Mine" would be a catchy alternative title (The Medium is Not Enough -> TMINE -> Tea Mine)? Then I can talk about a hard day's work at the "Tea Mine" when I've been blogging a lot...
