( @smolstrand heyo)
April 1st: favourite villain

Kevin (Kilgrave)
April 2nd: favourite character that's a dad

I have to go with Alec, sorry Dave 💔
April 3rd: favourite drama show

Aaaah the choice is so difficult
I've been agonising over it and can't reach a decision so I'm taking the coward route by saying : Broadchurch and Doctor Who
April 4th: favourite David Tennant expression

His disgusted / judging face makes me laugh without fail
April 5th: favourite animated character

Scrooge McDuck
April 6th: favourite Doctor Who episode

Turn Left

I realise the irony of choosing one that nearly doesn't feature DT but oh well
That episode is a masterpiece and I still remember the feeling of dread at first watching

"The Doctor is dead"
April 7th: favourite comedy

Staged

Gotta love the fact that the comedy aspect also takes place behind the scenes 😌
April 8th favourite outfit

There's something about the red velvet suit
April 9th: favourite quote

"Def.. Huh terrified. Every single time, every single time I.. I.. I.. I do wonder wh.. yes. I.. It’s weird I was.. this is.. has been.. because uuuuh sorry. Tell you what, I’ll use sentences"
April 10th: favourite Good Omens episode

Episode 3 💜
April 11th: favourite hairstyle

Does it need saying...?
April 12th: favourite professional interview

My all time favourite, and by far: "Conversations with David Tennant" by the SAG-AFTRA Foundation.

It's so interesting, the host knows what he's talking about (that intro!!). Everything about it is great
April 13th: show that made me cry

Doctor Who

Doomsday is the most I've ever cried while watching a show or a movie. Snotty tears and everything, I was absolutely c r u s h e d

"take me back"
April 14th: first thing I ever watched with him

The first thing I've seen is HP and the Goblet of Fire, but I didn't really remember him from there.

Years later, I watched Broadchurch S1 when it got out in France (2014), and absolutely loved him in it.
April 15th: favourite movie

Recovery.

By far. Really one of my favourite project DT's ever been involved in. Wonderfully made.
April 16th: favourite gif

I don't know how I'm supposed to choose 😭

But I'll go with that one because that gif is just really sweet
April 17th: saddest DT scene

Of course it's a scene from Recovery, and of course it's that one
You do something to me 🎶
April 18th: Happiest DT scene

The TARDIS crew at the end of season 4 in Doctor Who. It's so joyful to see them all together, it makes me cry sometimes.

(The subtitles are the song lyrics)
April 19th: favourite DT smile

Mmh I dont know really so here have 4 pictures of DT smiling
April 20th: favourite overall series

Broadchurch or Doctor Who, I don't want to choose between the 2
April 21st: favourite co-star

That one is tough. Olivia Colman, Catherine Tate, Sarah Parish, Billie Piper, that one guy who played the angel, ...

I absolutely love Nina Sosanya. they've worked together very often, and it's always perfect imo.
April 22nd: Favourite picture

I think it's that one.. David Tennant as Richard II
April 23rd: Favourite DT scene ever

That one, maybe? It's epic and cheesy, just as I like it.
April 24th: show that deserves an Emmy

Tbf I don't really care about awards

But let's manifest and say "Des"
April 25th: best DT character

That's tough.. Alec? Richard II?

I think I'll go with Tom Kendrick, mostly because it's a really well written, realistic character and DT plays him perfectly.
But also cause Dwf hadn't made an appearance yet in this thread and I want it to be there
April 26th: favourite Broadchurch ep

It's between the 1st and last episode of S1, I think. The 1st because seeing the Latimer's & community's reactions to the news is heartbreaking, but so well directed and acted. It's flawless.
And the last, because the resolution is clever. It makes perfect sense somehow. And once again, the acting is flawless (Olivia!!), people's reactions are believable and touching and I just love everything about it.
April 27th: Favourite Staged scene

"I want to be heard"

I'm doing it in 2 parts because the video is too long and the whole scene deserves to be here imo. Michael trying to get a rise out of David and succeeding never fails to get me. The pettiness of his character 😭😭
And then of course the "I wanna be heard" part.

Seeing these two bickering on screen is always a treat
April 28th: Favourite tenth Doctor quote

I love all the quotes that reference the "burden of a Time Lord" "the curse of the Time Lords", basically any time the Doctor gets dramatic. Quotes related to humanity "Human decay. You wither and you die." or..
"Wilf: Nine hundred years. We must look like insects to you.
The Doctor: I think you look like giants."

The Doctor mentioning that he's "the only one left.".. Love all that.

But one of my vry favourite thing is his anti gun/anti war stance, and it's mentioned here with a twist
Wilf: Then kill him first.
The Doctor: And that's how the Master started. It's not like I'm an innocent. I've taken lives. I got worse. I got clever. Manipulated people into taking their own. Sometimes I think a Time Lord lives too long. I can't. I just can't.
Also of course it's an occasion to watch again Bernard Cribbins delivering that line "That's an order, Doctor. Take the gun. You take the gun and save your life. And please don't die. You're the most wonderful man and I don't want you to die."
Never fails to bring tears to my eyes 💜

I also talk too much because what should have been a simple tweet mentionning my favourite 10th Doctor quote, turned into a mini thread. I'll shut up now 🤧
April 29th: Favourite costume

While I love the tenth Doctor iconic costume, I'm also so impressed with all the Crowley looks and costumes they came up with in GO

Took some time today to make a collage of all his looks in the show (hoping I haven't forgotten one)
April 30th: Favourite Proclaimers song

Sunshine on Leith
