Hugh Laurie and David Tennant in 'The Times'

[jadesfire]

I came across these in my wanderings through The Times today, and thought people might find them interesting.

'It's okay to think Doctor Who is gay, says David Tennant. Really lovely interview by someone who actually knows him (Arabella Weir, who used to rent him a room in her house)

Favourite bit: "And he’s very organised. When we lived together I was always teasing him about his alphabetised CDs, for example."

Hugh Laurie on House, fame and LA. Long, chatty, fascinating interview. Would be superb even if I wasn't a fan.

Favourite bit: Discussing his ping-pong table. No, really.

But... but... who *doesn't* organise CDs and DVDs alphabetically?!

[sepia-words.livejournal.com]

CDs alphabetically, DVDs by spine colour so they look pretty on the shelf. *g*

Knowing myself, I'd never be able to find a certain movie again ^^

*snort* I have mine organised by genre then by title. Like you, I'd never find anything otherwise!

It's a really well written interview - good questions without being too fawning. Glad you enjoyed :)

Thank you for the links! That is a very good interview with Tennant. I find it interesting that he makes a pretty strong point about being able to distinguish between actors and characters, and then the Times makes that very mistake in their headline! Heh.

Hee, I hadn't noticed that. But yes, it's a great interview.
