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 and doesn’t obviously infringe copyright, it will appear in the “Sitting Tennant” gallery. Don’t forget to include your name in the filename so I don’t get mixed up about who sent it to me.
The best pic in the stash each week will appear on Tuesday and get ten points; the runners up will appear on Friday (one per person who sends one in) and get five points.
You can also enter the witty and amusing captions league table by commenting on Tuesday’s Sitting Tennant photo, the best caption getting 10 points, everyone who contributes getting five points.
Each month, I’ll name the best picture provider and best captioneer, and then at the end of the year, the overall champion will be announced for 2012!

A bit of A Bit of Fry and Laurie
A bit of A Bit of Fry and Laurie – A Bit of Fry and Laurie (Deceased)
You don’t see enough references to ITC shows in modern television I find. So savour this delightful reference in reaction to the sad death of Hugh Laurie, which results in tributes from Nigel Havers and Rowan Atkinson among others.
