What are David Tennant's most famous roles to date?Scottish actor David Tennant is one of the UK's most celebrated actors, having brought the most popular iteration of the Doctor to life in Russell T Davies' era of Doctor Who between 2005 and 2010.
Aside from playing the tenth Doctor - a role he recently reprised in 2023 - he also won critical acclaim for his portrayal of DI Alec Hardy alongside Olivia Colman's Detective Sergeant Ellie Miller in BBC One's Broadchurch.

The 39-year-old actress, previously known as Georgia Moffett, is also the daughter of Doctor Who legend Peter Davison and his actress ex-wife Sandra Dickinson.
In 2008, David and Georgia appeared on-screen together in the Doctor Who episode entitled The Doctor's Daughter, where she portrayed the central character's artificially created adult daughter.
The pair started dating after meeting on set and got married in a low-key ceremony in 2011, with a close friend telling members of the press at the time: "David and Georgia are madly in love. They have tried to keep everything quiet and the wedding is for family and closest friends only."
