Post your questions for David Tennant | Baftas

0 14


The high point of the British film industry’s year, the Bafta film awards, returns on Sunday 18 February. The longlist has already been announced, with Killers of the Flower Moon, Barbie and Oppenheimer leading the count, and the contenders for the rising star award have also been revealed.

Hosting the event is a plum job, with Jonathan Ross and Stephen Fry having had the longest stints, dominating most of the 00s and 10s. But everyone from Terry Wogan (minus his Blankety Blank microphone on a stick) to (raises an eyebrow) Roger Moore to (somehow) Noel Edmonds have put on their very best DJs and had their eyes tested to double check they can read the teleprompter.

This year the job goes to David Tennant, who, to celebrate, will be taking on this reader interview. You can ask him anything. It could be about his getting in trouble in school because all his essays were obsessed with Doctor Who, perhaps. Or stealing his stage name (he was born David John McDonald) from Neil Tennant from Pet Shop Boys. Whether he really drinks his coffee from a mug with his own face on it, like in the BBC’s Staged.

On TV, he’s played everyone from Dennis Nilsen to Tony Blair and a robot on Star Wars: The Clone Wars. On stage, he’s played Mozart, Macbeth and Richard II. And on film he’s been Charles Darwin in The Pirates! In an Adventure With Scientists!, a harassed dad opposite Rosamund Pike in What We Did on Our Holiday, Barty Crouch Jr in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, John Knox in Mary Queen of Scots and, surely his best ever role to date, Scrooge McDuck in that deathless classic, Chip ’n Dale: Rescue Rangers.

Just remember: get in quick as we’re chatting sooner rather than later, and will need your questions by midday Monday 15 January.

The Bafta film awards are on 18 February at the Royal Festival Hall, London, and will be shown on BBC One, BBC iPlayer, and BritBox.
