DESERT ISLAND DISCS REVISITED: DOCTOR WHO AT 60 - DAVID TENNANT (320kbs-m4a/94mb/41mins)
BBC Radio 4 Extra broadcat: 5th November 2023
Actor David Tennant is castaway on a desert island by Kirsty Young.
He has been voted the best Doctor Who ever and has redefined the Time Lord for a generation of parents and children.
As a child he was a huge fan of the programme; he reckons he only ever missed one episode, wore a long stripy scarf and queued up to meet Tom Baker and get his autograph.
As a role, he says, it appealed not just to his adult self but to the eight-year-old boy who was just below the surface.
