#the tennant clan

[fuckyeahgoodomens]

David: One of Job's sons is played by a very promising young actor called Ty Tennant. He's got a great future ahead of him, I hope, because I'm hoping he'll pay for my old folks home when I retire. This is my father-in-law, Peter.

Peter: Hello.

David: And this is my son, Ty. And Peter is playing Ty's father in this particular scene.

A collection of facts:

David Tennant was a super fan of the Fifth Doctor, played by Peter Davison

He met Davison’s daughter Georgia on Doctor Who and married her

Georgia and David have 5 kids including actor Ty Tennant of House of the Dragon fame

Ncuti is a fan of Ten, played by David Tennant

British actors all tend to wind up on Doctor Who eventually

A logical conclusion:

Ty Tennant and Ncuti Gatwa have the opportunity to be fucking hilarious.

[chaoticvictorianspirit]

I mean.... you're not wrong

mad respect to the doctor who director who took one look at david tennant and went we need to get him sopping wet IMMEDIATELY

[mannka]

Jiu and Qingge are members of the ANBU, previously Jiu's brother, Yuan, was also with them. But from one mission, they brought with them a child, whom they named Binghe. At the same time, Jiu lost his eye. Yuan left ANBU and started raising a child, whom they, of course, kept, and Jiu, after treatment, returned to missions.

And everything was good enough, Binghe grew up and graduated from the Shinobi academy, and Yuan became the mentor of his team. But then, in a critical situation, it turns out that Binghe was from the Uchiha clan all this time.

A little additional information:

Qingge possesses byakugan;

Qingyuan is the current hokage.

We all thought that the natural next phase in the wibbly wobbly nature of the Tennant clan would be Georgia Tennant giving birth to a future Doctor.

I don’t think any of us had David Tennant being the one to give birth to the next Doctor on our bingo cards…

[lurking-latinist]

I will always maintain that when David Tennant was cast as Scrooge McDuck for the DuckTales, every other Scottish cast member should’ve been cast as a member of Clan McDuck. They did cast Michelle Gomez as his sister, Matilda but they should’ve gotten them all man

haha that would’ve been cool! I didn’t know Michelle Gomez was in it though, that’s awesome

[msclaritea]

Neither did David:

"Tennant attended Saturday classes at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland before passing an official audition at the age of 16, becoming one of their youngest students and studying there between the ages of 17 and 20. After discovering that there was another David McDonald already represented by the actor's union Equity, he created his stage name by adopting the surname of Pet Shop Boys frontman Neil Tennant, whom he had seen in Smash Hits. He later legally changed his surname to comply with rules set by the American Screen Actors Guild (which was later merged into SAG-AFTRA). The topic of his name changes subsequently became part of a running joke in the first season of Staged."

(Neil) Tennant came out as gay in a 1994 interview in Attitude magazine. Otherwise, he remains quiet about his personal and romantic life, preferring to be a "man of mystery", as he states it. He maintains a house in London and another one in County Durham, in the countryside of Northeast England. He and Lowe also have an apartment in Berlin.

Tennant is a patron of the Elton John AIDS Foundation. In 1998, Tennant was named in a list of the biggest private financial donors to the Labour Party. However, in the 2005 general election he voted for the Liberal Democrats, citing disillusionment with Labour's ID card scheme. The Pet Shop Boys agreed to personal appeals by then-Mayor of London Boris Johnson and then-Prime Minister David Cameron, both prominent Conservative Party politicians, for the group to play at the "winners' parade" taking place shortly after the 2012 Summer Olympics closing ceremony. Enjoying the event's atmosphere and how their stage presence turned into a well-received performance, Tennant subsequently texted Cameron's staff pushing Cameron to use gay scientist Alan Turing's centenary year as impetus for the UK Government to formally pardon Turing.

 "..A terrible story. Of course, the reason they won't pardon Alan Turing is because they'd have to pardon all those homosexual men. Well, why don't they? Why don't they pardon them all, actually?" A few months previously, Neil was approached by then Prime Minister David Cameron, and then London Mayor Boris Johnson, asking for the Pet Shop Boys to play at Team GB's winners' parade after the London 2012 Olympic Games...A month later Neil texted Cameron the following message: "Thanks for asking us – actually it was really worth doing. And sorry to bug you, but could you pass on to the Prime Minister that in Alan Turing’s centenary year it would be an amazing inspirational thing to do to pardon him?” 

Neil Tennant's family is from St. Cuthberts, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland.

Tennant Clan History (scotclans.com)

Clan History

"This name derives from the Latin ‘tenere’, ‘to hold’. In 1296 the first record of the name notes ‘William Tennant of Crestone in the County of Linlescu’. Thomas Teneunt was one of the witnesses in the inquiry concerning the affairs of the Knights Templar in 1309. In 1366 John Tennand was a burgess of Stirling who, with others, attacked the fishings of the Abbey of Cambuskenneth. The seal of Mungo Tennent, burgess of Edinburgh, appended to a deed of 1542, carries a boar's head in chief, two crescents in the flanks and in base the letter ‘M’, which is remarkably similar to the arms of the chiefly family, Tennant of that Ilk, described in the seventeenth century Balfour manuscript."

The Real Isis Project

According to esoteric Freemasonry Cunter and Ben are, quite literally, Adam and Steve (Strange)! NEWSFLASH: That inverted disaster isn't Hieros Gamos 🙄...

[thealogie]

need to know more about those 20 hollywood producers butttt i've also heard even if they had called him back as soon as his family was in the picture he had pretty clear priorities that influenced his choices of what projects to accept (aka not being away from london for too long)

Summer shoot bring the whole Tennant clan over for school holidays. If it’s a project I really want, I’ll even babysit all 12 of your kids David Tennant

Notes regarding 229401

Just a quick note: I realize this post is coming much later than planned, so I apologize for that. It's also a little long, but there are multiple parts. This post will very likely get edited in the future, but if I don't post it now, I may not ever.

After the initial "Before the Beginning" part of S 2 E 1, Good Omens 2 opens with Aziraphale receiving a note from his record-shop tenant, Maggie, owner of The Small Back Room.

The note is written on an invoice slip, and we see the number printed in red in the upper right-hand corner is 229401. We know details in this show are demonstrated/indicated for a reason, so I decided to do some Internet-digging. I'm sure these are reaches, but it was fun, so here it goes.

(found here, posted by HereBecauseOfGoodOmens)

Another note: this post (other than the tartan bit later) is specifically about 229401, not the note itself. There may be more about that in a future post, but I'm not sure yet.

Since the invoice number is the only part of the page in red compared to the rest in greens/blues on a white background, I Googled the number to see what I could find.

One result was this interestingly-shaped shelf support:

which looks a bit like the design on Crowley's tie in the 1941 minisode:

(GIF by gothamstreetcat)

I also checked hex codes, and got this interesting, grassy shade of green:

Comparing the color on my laptop screen to the color on my TV while watching, it most looked like the cemetery grass in S 2 E 3 when Aziraphale calls the bookshop from the stranger's mobile phone, but doesn't match when I compare them both on my laptop screen. It is also similar to various greens from The Scottish Register of Tartan's PDF of Tartan Register Colour shades, but it also seems so specifically familiar and I just can't quite place it.

EXTRA-REACHING SIDE NOTE: CLAN MACDONALD TARTAN COLORS In that same scene, right before Crowley answers the ringing phone, we see him toss a stack of books he had been carrying. The books were varying shades of blue, green, and red. We know that David Tennant is proud of his Scottish heritage, so out of pure curiosity, I did some Googling and found this, "the oldest recorded version of the clan sett" (it says it is dated 01/01/1819, prior to the launch of The Scottish Register of Tartans), the same colors:

Also also, I couldn't make out the title or the rest of the names on the book, but the second book from the top of the stack definitely says "David" on it.

Yes, I do know that his family name was McDonald and not MacDonald, but when I first did the search, this is what it showed me. It's probably (definitely) a reach, but hey, it was fun!

And finally, I am completely new to numerology, but added the digits together and got 18, so here's some numerology related to 18. I realize it is written to sound applicable in general, like horoscopes, but why not go for it?

According to affinitynumerology.com:

The numerology essence of the number 18 has to do with humanitarianism, independence, and building something of lasting benefit. The underlying idea of the essence of the number 18 is the welfare of humanity. 18 is tolerant and compassionate, mixing easily with others, including planning and executing projects, yet tends to do the actions of what it considers the most important either by itself or as the leader — at its own determination.

Could this possibly be representative of Aziraphale going to Heaven at the end of S 2? Maybe it would have something to do with action he takes regarding the Second Coming.

According to numerologistpro.com:

In imbalance, the number 18 is conflicted, angry, choleric, and fanatic. Many with 18/9 energy seem happy, light-hearted, and open on the surface, but there is nothing light about the inner life of 18/9. There is a lot of guilt, shame, fear, and insecurity. For example, there can be a lot of internal conflict with a shifting attraction and repulsion to money and power. In balance, the number 18 has energy, focus, willpower, and drive.

This can be applied to Aziraphale, as well, especially as he gets better at lying over time and in S 2 E 6 after he finds out that he will be leading the Second Coming. It will be interesting to see what happens with Aziraphale as Supreme Archangel, having to try to balance his responsibilities/duties to humanity, Heaven, and of course Crowley.

'As David Tennant's Doctor and Catherine Tate's Donna Noble crash-land back on our screens for Doctor Who's 60th anniversary, there's one person they couldn't leave behind – the icon that is Sylvia Noble, played by Jacqueline King.

Sylvia, Donna's mum, became known for never taking any of the Doctor's nonsense. Now, she's back, with King promising: "The fierce mother/grandmother spirit is still there!"

Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com about what it was like to return with Tennant and Tate, King explains: "They are such lovely, genuinely lovely people, superb actors who I stand in the wake of and our parts had been written so clearly by Russell T Davies and he knows us so well and so brilliantly that we all just felt that we were putting on the old pair of shoes again and off we went."

She adds: "I'm so surprised that [the specials have] happened because I always thought the whole thing about Doctor Who was that of course he regenerates and that it becomes new and different.

"But I'm so thrilled for them, that they're going to get another glimpse of something that they've talked about, the fans, as being special in their hearts and I'm so glad that they're going to have another visit that isn't just going down memory lane.

"It's very much taking us into the future and taking us in an exciting route through different media and then, of course, we will launch into the next Doctor Who and it will progress from there. So I'm just hoping that people won't think it's too much going backwards and that it's helping the forward propulsion of the series."

Even all these years later, there's no one else in the whole Whoniverse like Sylvia, with King adding: "She's the most grounded [character] that I've seen. I haven't watched every episode of everybody else's. But I do love the fact that she gives them short shrift."

This time though, things are different for the Noble family – it's 15 years on and the clan has expanded, with Yasmin Finney playing Donna's daughter Rose.

As for how things have moved on for Sylvia and Donna, King teases: "They will be recognisably Sylvia and Donna as we knew them, on each other's case! Life has changed, life has gone on. But we have grown, and I think it is evident how much Sylvia loves her daughter."

On Finney's Rose, King adds: "Oh, it's glorious. She's lovely. And what an upcoming star she is."

It's been a long time since the Nobles last appeared in season 4, but King didn't want to revisit the episodes – and for a very good reason, pointing out: "The joy of Sylvia was that she was so grounded because she didn't know anything about what was going on in outer space. She hadn't got a clue.

"All she knew was her house and her family and her father. And you know, it was a small world and I think I wanted to keep that innocence. So I didn't really become very knowledgeable about what was happening in the rest of the episodes."

Plus, she's got many hopes for the specials, which she describes as "exciting, vibrant, and full of love".

"I'm hoping that [fans] care as much as they did, we had such a lovely reception after series 4. People were so kind and so enthusiastic about the Noble family and about their relationship with the Doctor and the brilliant rapport of David and Catherine, and so I think they will definitely see that again.

"And they will see the depth of that because of those years that have passed. They will see that they are still absolutely bonded and committed, and Sylvia still has a huge mistrust of the Doctor! And a huge fear of what the consequences of what Donna meeting him would be."

She adds of Davies's scripts: "He is such a superb writer, but he didn't need any of our input at all. He produced the scripts and we stuck very faithfully to them. But I'd like to believe that getting to know us enabled him to flesh out the characters even more as he knew what we did with them."

So... thinking beyond the specials, if the time ever came for Sylvia to return again, could it happen?

"I mean, when I was asked that after series 4, I used to laugh, [and say], 'Don't be silly, that's never going to happen.' But now of course I'm thinking, 'Crumbs! It has happened, and it's been joyous.' And if it ever happened again, I think I once said this to Russell T Davies – if I was up Mount Everest, I would drop everything and come down to be part of it again."'

[rainbowpopeworld]

Yeah I think you and I might be describing the same thing but with different words. 😅 He says the stuff, but doesn’t come with all the rest of the usual behaviors and oppressive baggage

Actually it’s 5 family members. Yep Georgia. The two blonde kids who tore up the shop were Olive and Wilf Tennant. Peter Davison (Georgia’s dad and the Fifth Doctor) was the professor near the end. And Sandra Dickinson, Georgia’s mom, is the one I missed previously- it says “Jury” as her role on IMDb.

You, Me and Him is so funny because they gave us a couple of enlightened lesbians and put them in a poly relationship with a man who believes in "alpha males" as a concept but also becomes a giant helpful teddy bear when he learns it's his fault someone is pregnant. also the man is david tennant with a truly ridiculous beard

[lastbluetardis]

listen, you can’t convince me this caption wasn’t ghostwritten by rose from perfect match (on her sixth child). i mean, a drunken accident? ✔️ total lack of self control regarding wine and the father/her husband? ✔️✔️✔️✔️ loving and proud mama, with a great sense of humor? ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ see. it’s literally the same picture kjgwjkjssj

Lmao I was thinking the same thing 😂 I did not at all mean for the Tyler-McCrimmon clan to parallel the Tennant clan, but it seems to have accidentally happened 😅

Happy New Year! End of Year Round Up Part Duex.

Though I’d keep the tradition going and wrap up the year by giving little mini reviews of stuff I’ve seen…also between getting sick on Christmas and the holidays themselves I’ve got a lot to catch up on.

Netflix Slumberland. Based on the classic comic Little Nemo, this was a surprisingly sweet story about a little girl using the power of her dreams to say goodbye to her father who was lost at sea. Jason Mamoa had a blast playing Flip, the rouge criminal of Slumberland.

The Sequel that didn’t have to exist but I’m glad it does, Disenchanted. Taking place ten years after the first, Giselle and fam move to the burbs but have a little trouble adjusting. Especially Giselle who starts to long for her old simple life in Andalasia. Enter one MacGuffin of a wishing wand, and Giselle’s wish comes true…except by fairy tale rules, starts turning her into a wicked stepmother! Can Giselle reverse her wish before it’s too late? While not perfect, (Roberts Storyline cough cough) Disenchanted surprised me with how emotional the climax turned (albeit a little rushed)

Netflix Wednesday was a fun series. A little soap opera like but Jenna Ortega carried the show and made you care about the mystery. It’s a little light on the other members of the Addams clan but it’s a coming of age story focused on Wednesday. Plus I love this dress and want to make one like the rest of sewing Tik Tok.

The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special was one of the best things I’ve watched this year. Funny touching and just full of Christmas in every frame. I loved how Peter’s hero Kevin Bacon really came through to save Christmas in the end. Plus I loved the two songs by the Old 97’s.

Finally finished Doctor Who and Thirteen’s era. It was good. Not great. Aside from the Master dancing to Rasputin. And the Doctor regenerating after seeing one last sunset. It was nice. Now I’m just waiting for David Tennant and Donna Nobel again.

Finally Glass Onion on Netflix. While we will never recapture that first time that Rian Johnson got us all in Knives Out, this one comes pretty darn close. It’s more screwball in tone, but the mystery and the resolution is so satisfying.
