Sitting Tennant

Monday’s Sitting Tennants

Jaradel's Sitting Tennant

Lauren's Sitting Tennant

Toby's Sitting Tennant

Rullsenberg's Sitting Tennant

Sister Chastity's Sitting Tennant

Have you made an appointment to ogle? Good, because the Doctor will see you now – Monday’s Sitting Tennants have arrived. Today’s entries are from Jaradel (your supply just run out!), Lauren (so have yours!), Toby (and yours!), Rullsenberg and Sister Chastity.

Sister Chastity manages through virtue of her handy stalker cam to have produced a picture of DT on the set of the new St Trinian’s movie, so gets a bonus point for topicality – which handily takes her into the lead. Not bad for a woman who’s busily staring at a luggage carousel right now.

For the rest of the week, you can muse on the question, “What is DT up to in Toby’s submission?”, or you can caption Friday’s pic.

  1. Sister Chastity: 49.5
  2. Rullsenberg: 48.5
  3. Jaradel: 35.5
  4. Toby: 5
  5. Rosby: 2.5
  6. Lauren: 4
  7. Amy: 2
  8. Persephone, Sabine: 1

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.

Supernatural and Smallville new season trailers

Next month, the US Fall TV season starts to crank into gear. As well as new shows, there’ll be returning shows including Supernatural, which returns for probably its final season on September 10th. Here for your delectation is a little trailer containing one or two spoilers. Looks good – better than Smallville‘s anyway, which I’ve also embedded for fun. Good Zod, though – that’s a cracking Terence Stamp impression.

Gossip Girl season 2 gag reel plus Ed Westwick goes English

More because it’s vaguely amusing and you get to see Blake Lively (Serena) do the robot than because it’s very funny, here’s the Gossip Girl season two gag reel.

And although Hugh Laurie gets all the kudos these days for his American accent, Ed Westwick who plays Chuck Bass does an equally good job I think – and here’s proof of just how English he is in real life, together with his advice on how to convince people you’re American. He might be joking.
