Social workers aren’t best loved right now, so a new campaign had been launched to point out they’re actually quite useful people, really. Various big name stars, including Sadie Frost and Michelle Ryan, have been lending their voices to the campaign, as has our Joanna. Here, she gives Joyce a voice.

Steven Seagal: Lawman
Well, this looks cracking, doesn’t it? Steven Seagal: Lawman is a reality TV show that follows good old Steven Seagal around as he performs his duties as a deputy sheriff in New Orleans. Yes, you read that right. He really is.
Don’t worry, you haven’t missed anything. It starts on A&E in December.

Sitting Tennant
Monday’s Sitting Tennants
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.
- Sister Chastity: 49.5
- Rullsenberg: 48.5
- Jaradel: 35.5
- Toby: 5
- Rosby: 2.5
- Lauren: 4
- Amy: 2
- 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.
