Sitting Tennant

Tuesday’s Sitting Tennant (week 1, 2012)

Janice and Sister Chastity's Sitting Tennant

It’s a new year and a new beginning for Sitting Tennant. Once more dear friends, I invite you all to submit your best pictures of David Tennant in a sitting or reclining position, married or unmarried. Once more, I invite you all to caption the best “Sitting Tennant” of the week.

But this year, as promised, a slight wrinkle to proceedings that should enable everyone to feel like they can take part, whether they jump in late or have been with the competitions since the beginning. From now on, there’ll be monthly champions for both picture and caption competitions, so everyone can be a winner, no matter what time of year it is!

So start scouting, take whatever amount of inspiration pills you need and prepare to enter Sitting Tennant 2012. To kick everything off, here’s Sister Chastity’s first entry of the year, which also happens to be both Janice’s and Hebbie’s first entry of the year. Great minds clearly think alike and I hope it meets with your agreement.

  1. Sister Chastity, Janice, Hebbie: 10

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!

That Wonder Woman costume returns

Remember this?

Wonder Woman: after and before the costume redesign

That was Adrianne Palicki in David E Kelley’s Wonder Woman pilot for NBC – which was too awful to be made into a series. However, Kelley has continued with the almost-as-bad Harry’s Law and in a forthcoming episode, Erica Durance (Lois Lane from Smallville) will turn up as a woman who thinks she is Wonder Woman.

And she’s wearing that costume.

Erica Durance in Harry's Law

I think she manages to pull it off better than Palicki, although the ‘Amazon princess’ outfit she wore in Smallville might have been better.

Erica Durance in Smallville as Wonder Woman

All the same, weird move by Kelley. Because someone who thought they were Wonder Woman would wear the outfit they never saw from a TV show that never got made, wouldn’t they?

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and what can Santa Rob bring you for 2012?

Merry Christmas!It’s that time again everyone. Time for my annual year-end break which some crazy people have decided to call “Christmas”.

As usual, I plan on doing precisely no work over the Christmas break, but I’ll be back with the news and more on January 2th. Or maybe the 3rd. Some time around then anyway.

Survey time
As always, let’s take this as an opportunity to have a reader survey. What sorts of things would you like to see on this here blog in 2012? And what sort of things have outstayed their welcome? And are people okay with the idea of additional monthly Sitting Tennant competitions?

Leave your requests for more, less or the same below in the comments and I’ll decide what gets the chop and what stays alive when I get back. I’ll probably carry on as before, but you never know.

In the meantime, a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year to you all, thanks for reading and a great big thanks as always to everyone who’s left a comment for livening up the place! We just hit 14,000 comments and I’m about five away now from hitting my 5,000th post. Exciting, huh?

PS You have until midnight to enter the Top Gear competition. At the moment, it looks like absolutely no one wants the DVD, so if you enter, you’ll probably win the prize.
