Mike Collins, the man who illustrates the Doctor Who magazine comic
strip, has been talking about going back to the drawing board and learning to draw David , just as he had got used to etching
Christopher Eccleston! He told BBC Wales:
"I had just got to the stage when I can draw Christopher
Eccleston quite comfortably," he said. "But I have no problems, he has made a decision that was interesting for the show.
"It is a fresh new broom - David Tennant has a great face, and I have to get it right as he is a big
fan and is going to read it."

Any young fans of David or in fact fans with young children may
be interested to know that the latest audio CD narrated by David, the brilliant children's book 'The Beasts Of Clawstone Castle',
is on offer at Amazon. The CD was reviewed in The Independent earlier this week. They say:
David Tennant's reading of The Beasts of Clawstone Castle (Macmillan
CD/cassette £13) is the one to get. Like most of Britain, I am in love with the new Doctor Who, but he is even better as a
reader than as an actor, and shares Miranda Richardson's insane glee in realising eccentric characters. Eva Ibbotson's thespian
ghosts, determined to rescue the snow-white cattle of a crumbling Northern castle by staging dramatic hauntings for tourists,
get the full treatment, with dreamy, spooky music to calm things down in between. Especially good at mad, posh voices, Tennant
renders Rolf, the rat-gnawed aristocratic spook, so well that my children were begging to go back into the hot car to hear
what happened next.
It is currently on sale at Amazon for just £7.80! Click here to purchase it.

The Official Doctor Who Website has posted an important notice for those of you lucky enough to be able to go along and watch David,
Billie and the rest of the cast and crew filming the new series of Doctor Who. They say:
Doctor Who is now filming - it may even
be in your area, as we speak. If you find out that Doctor Who is filming near you, and plan on turning up to watch, then can
we ask that you respect the wishes of the cast and crew and follow any instructions that are given to you by security and
staff on set? The most important request is please don't take photographs during an actual take. Filming last week was
disrupted both by cameras with flash, and those that made a "beep" every time they took a picture. Both are enough to stop
a take, and it takes a long time for the entire cast and crew to reset for another go. If in doubt, please don't take any
pictures at all, but, if you must, please ensure that your flash and any sounds are turned off. Everyone is working very
hard to make the best possible programme. We don't advertise where we're filming as large crowds cause added disruption, both
to a tight schedule and to people who live and work in the surrounding area. Sadly, this also means that we can't confirm
rumours of upcoming locations.

Thanks to everyone who emailed us to say that David
was on the BBC news at lunchtime talking about Doctor Who. It is currently also being shown on BBC News 24. We're hoping that
it will be repeated tonight at 6.00pm on BBC1. You can watch the interview online here.
This waht BBC Online say:
New Doctor Who star David Tennant said it was
"pretty daunting" to play the sci-fi character, as filming of new episodes began in Cardiff. Ex-Casanova star Tennant,
34, said it was an intimidating role because "the series is so huge". "I'm aware of all that but I try to keep it in my back
pocket and just get on with the job," he added. A 13-part series of the BBC TV show will follow a Christmas special, with
scenes shot in London on Friday. Ratings success Tennant, a long-term Doctor Who fan, also said he was excited about
beginning work on the show. "It's great - you get to play a Time Lord and have a Tardis. You can't knock that," he said. Revived
after a 16-year absence, Doctor Who proved to be a ratings success on its return in March. Tennant replaced Christopher
Eccleston in the lead role, appearing briefly at the end of the last series in June. Last week the Doctor's "striking" new
outfit was revealed, consisting of a striped suit, trenchcoat and trainers. Billie Piper returns as companion Rose, with a
cameo appearance by Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Anthony Head. The 60-minute Christmas special tells of the earth being under
threat from alien Sycorax and features actress Penelope Wilton. The Cybermen will return in the new series, and the Doctor
and Rose will meet Queen Victoria and an evil race of Cat Women. One episode will be written by comedian Stephen Fry while
The League of Gentleman star Mark Gattis will once again contribute to the writing.
