David Tennant was in this??


According to the cast list, David Tennant played "Caretaker". I've only watched a little of Shalka, and couldn't find him on the parts I watched or the end credits for each section. Where was he?



Before I go, I just want to tell you- you were fantastic. Absolutely fantastic. And you know what? So was I.

I wanna know too. I saw the whole thing when it first starting being broadcast on the website. At that time I didn't know who David Tennant was :(

I'll just have to watch the whole thing all over again!

Tennant was in Part 5 when the mob attacks the warehouse. There's an old man with his cup of tea and a younger man(Tennant) shouting at the people to 'get back, get away from the fence' then the poor man screams and dies horribly as the mob unwillingly strangles him. Definitely Tennant's voice, I was starting to wonder if he was really in it too!

reply

Do you mean Episode Five or Part Five? There's six Episodes and each is broken up into 4 or 5 Parts.

I have dial-up internet, so watching a whole episode would take about five hours instead of fifteen minutes.

reply

It's in the very beginning of episode five, IIRC.

It has precedent. Colin Baker had a bit part in a Fifth Doctor story before he was cast as the Sixth Doctor. Lalla Ward palyed a supporting role opposite the first Romana before being cast as the second Romana.

So, random guy in a warehouse becomes the Tenth Doctor.

Actually, David Tennant's first Doctor Who part was as a nazi in an early Big Finish Doctor Who audio called 'Colditz'.

reply

He went on to do several big finish stories. He's in Doctor who unbound: sympathy for the devil. Plus another unbound story called exile. He appeared in the sixth doctor story medicinal purposes. And one of the dalek empire releases.
