headrush100's current absorption in the Tenth Doctor, I offer some of my favorite instances of David Tennant being an adorably dorky fanboy all over British television.
David Tennant AND HIS DADDY on Ready, Set, Cook. It's a show where the contestants bring on ingredients and are paired with a chef to use all the ingredients in half an hour. David Tennant's dad brings haggis. Because THEY ARE SCOTS and don't you forget it.
David Tennant on Nevermind the Buzzcocks (Part 2 and Part 3) Don't worry if you don't know any of the music - I don't and it's still funny. There's bonus Catherine Tate (though she seems to be playing a ditz for the occasion) and Bernard Cribbins.
David Tennant on QI. (Part 2 and Part 3 Warning for disability!fail. (Also, it opens with Stephen Fry saying "Wassup," which is not offensive but is very confusing and a little embarrassing.)
Finally, the great classic David Tennant singing "500 Miles" with The Proclaimers, looking exactly like a six-year-old who just got the best birthday present ever.

People who read Ballet Shoes as children: when, if ever, did you start to see Dr. Smith/Dr. Jakes?
Over the weekendbreadandroses and I watched the 2007 movie with Emma Watson as Pauline, which makes the pairing quite clear, in a campy-positive manner we quite enjoyed. The film takes some rather extreme liberties with the character of Mr. Simpson, and assassinates the character of Winifred Bagnall, but I really enjoyed getting glimpses of period musical and Shakespeare productions. As fans of Hustle, we also enjoyed seeing Marc Warren (even though he apparently can't shed his Danny Blue accent - unless grammar schools have Matrons?) and Adrian Lester (who does a reasonably good American accent here.)
I'm obsessively refreshing Vividcon playlists for links, so there will probably be songvid recs this week. For the moment, though, I invite everyone to revisit the delights of November by watching the following vid by SDWolfpup:

It has come to my attention that this clip has not been circulated as it deserves.
Anthony Stewart Head interviewed by Jonathan Ross, who makes him giggle uncontrollably, to the point that he... well, you'll see.
In other news, blessed Ash Wednesday to anyone celebrating it. So far I have inadvertently given up my travel mug (left it at the bank or the train station) andbreadandroses's hat (left it at church).

A guide to archaic medical terms. Primarily nineteenth-century, but with some earlier references. Quinsy! Catarrh! Distemper!
