Don’t forget Friday’s caption competition.

Got a picture of David Tennant sitting, lying down or in some indeterminate state in between? Then leave a link to it below or email me and if it’s judged suitable, it will appear in the “Sitting Tennant” gallery.

Every photo displayed on Monday (one per person who sends one in) gets a point, with a bonus point if it’s from the latest DT production; the best pic in the stash each week will appear on Friday and get three points.

You can also enter the witty and amusing captions league table by commenting on Friday’s Sitting Tennant photo, the best caption getting 10 points, everyone who contributes getting five points.

Gavin and Stacey – series three and the BBC’s mental DVD release schedule

Oh! Look at that. Yes – that. It’s an ad for Gavin & Stacey series three on DVD. You can buy it now. In fact, I have a copy already.

What do you mean they’ve only shown two episodes of it on TV so far?

Yes, in the bizarre world of the BBC DVD release schedule, "a third of the way through a series" is a good time to release a show on DVD, presumably in time for Christmas.

So, here’s my quandary. Should I watch the DVD (two discs, including one disc of extras) and spoil myself, or watch at the same speed as everyone else?

We’ve already watched the next two episodes and I’ll tell you something for nothing, there’s a great fight scene with Stacey. Episode 3 is also great for in-jokes. I’ll say no more than that until Friday.

Christmas TARDISLook, everyone, Advent Sitting Tennant has arrived, complete with logo. Aren’t you filled with Christmas cheer now?

Fittingly, in this time of co-operation and love, isn’t great to see both Ms Rullsenberg and Sister Chastity getting points this week for submitting this picture of David Tennant auditioning for Shameless? Well done to the both of you.

  2. Rullsenberg: 69.5
  3. Jaradel: 35.5

The love’s been spread around in caption land, too, where both Marie and Sister Chastity have received 10 points this week for their wishful thinkingcaptions; five points, as always, to everyone else who contributed.

Good luck this week everyone! And, can I ask you all to start thinking about Sitting Tennant 2010? Should the rules change? Should it still be a competition? What format should it be?

Basically, what do you – current contributors and lurkers alike – want from Sitting Tennant next year?
