David Tennant Didn't Tell Catherine Tate The Big Sontarans Secret | Friday Night With Jonathan Ross

I love how different 2008 is with spoilers. David and Catherine are talking about all sorts of details about the episodes before they're released, whereas nowadays actors are always tight lipped about the content they're in.

[@EnchantedEssays]

I know what you mean. They don't give any spoilers, but they're not worried about what they can and can't say

Love Catherine and David. They’re just brilliant. Can’t believe I’ve not seen this interview before. Loved Catherine sticking up for her people. My son is also ginger, we were lucky enough to meet her and she looked like she wanted to scoop him up and take him home. She was so lovely.

I agree. And having David Tennant being back on Doctor Who is awesome.

[@fulya6679]

David such a clever person. The host said to his face he doesnt wanna see him naked because he is too skinny as a 'joke' and just went dont play your cards wrong, the night is still young. Good for you David.

[@tracyroweauthor]

It's funny listening to David talking about not having pets. Georgia has a dog and it was that moment I realized oh yeah, he and Georgia aren't a thing yet.

David's giggle in this interview is a perfect. (4.48)

At first I was wondering why the host hadn't asked about Georgia and the kids and then I realized, he'd only just met Georgia during that series, and they might not even have started dating yet.

[@hgracieeees]

they were either massively crushing on each other or in the early throes of a relationship - what a cute thought!

[@jomathieson1679]

they said they were done with filming, so they were dating by that point, just the early stages.

David and Catherine did so well here. There's no way you'd see these kinds of questions on an interview today, about people's weight, sexual interests, and hair colour!

[@leenoble7472]

I am an American and while I love Dr Who, I had never heard of Johnathan Ross until this video and almost stopped watching because he was so horrible. Is he meant to be a total wad? Is that like, his thing? Who is he trying to appeal to? I can’t imagine anyone would watch this show if David and Catherine weren’t on it.

I cannot take my eyes off her even though she is sitting next to David Tennant, by all rights a very beautiful man. Catherine Tate, as the kids say these days, is Mother.

[@cathyaldridge4550]

[@jomathieson1679]

that's 2008 for you, all the borderline homophobic jokes and talking about your guest naked seriously gives me the ick but it was 100% acceptable by the mainstream at the time. I'd like to think we've majorly progressed but there's a somewhat recent radio interview with David, (don't know her name unfortunately) where the interviewer starts asking David about whether he cosplays as the doctor to have sex with his wife, he has 5 kids AND Georgia's own dad was also the doctor, serious lack of boundaries and respect for his personal life.

[@keithsolley]

​@bellasaward8330 we all remember the disgraceful 'Sachsgate'

[@PichDextro]

@@jomathieson1679 What the fuck is that question?! Even if David was in his 20s, did not have 5 kids and Georgia would have nothing to do with the show, it's no ones flipping business what they do in the bedroom. Who actually cares about that? That's gross as hell.

Jonathan, this is the last time I’ll say it, as you always get it wrong - the character is not called Doctor Who, he’s called The Doctor. (And has been for about the last 55 years!)

[@OfficialSoraOkami]

well actually if you look at the credits from 1963 to about 1980 The actors are credited as Doctor Who.

[@rkah6187]

You can call the character either. Even Peter Capaldi usually refers to it as 'Doctor Who', so it's safe to say that is also correct.

[@stephenbarrette610]

@@OfficialSoraOkami Yes, you are absolutely correct. I should’ve said that Jonathan should’ve referred to ‘The Doctor’ as that is the preferred usage now. (Pronouns!) But you’re right. - and I’ve been watching it since 1963! - So I should’ve known better - thank you for pointing that out. I mean that in a nice way and Merry Christmas!

I do love this Doctor Who duo. I don't know but this whole interview seemed forced and awkward. Just a bit, I don't know.

JR isn't a great interviewer, his default is to push towards innuendo right from the start. Often the guests just aren't comfortable. Compare with Graham Norton, who also uses innuendo and double entendres, but he waits for his guests to relax and join him.

And here we all are again xD

[@OverWims]

Every time he refers to the character as "Doctor Who" it irks me. Yes, I know Jonathon probably grew up with the old series which was when they referred to him as that but since Series 2 onwards, even the credits state his name is "The Doctor" not "Doctor Who". If you're interviewing someone, do it right. Yes I know this is from 2008.

Is Jonathan Ross always so blunt/uncomfortable/rude/dry in how he speaks to his guests?? He had two incredibly lovely, intelligent and funny, people opposite him… but he churned through the most outdated/basic questions. Maybe his sense of humour is just super dry?? Idk.

They're fabulous, but Jonathan needs some lessons in interviewing skills from Graham Norton. He's painful to watch.

[@RaakheeNagaonkar]

This host is so bad! Doesn’t let the guests talk only he keeps yapping! He will ask a question and instead of waiting for the guest to answer will answer for them. Something bullshit. And hello! Stop judging for not having pets or not liking animals. There are few of us who don’t want it. It’s our choice u see. There is no reason to judge!

Is it a British thing or something? But what is that bit where he said, 'I hate to see you naked because you're too skinny,' or the comments about 'senile' Michael Douglas? It wasn't provocative or smart. And I'm pretty sure he meant it to be, but these remarks in bad taste only reveal his lack of manners and create secondhand embarrassment. If I were on the show's PR team, I would have deleted this interview and advised him to take some lessons from Graham Norton.
