Rullsenberg's and Sabine's Sitting Tennant

Toby's Sitting Tennant

Two lovely pictures of David Tennant sitting down from four equally lovely people. How does that math work? The same pic from three people. Great Tennant-lovers think alike.

  1. Toby, Sister Chastity: 30
  2. Sabine, Rullsenberg: 20

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 five points; the best pic in the stash each week will appear on Friday and get ten 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.
