NTA

[shivver]

Of course you already know that David Tennant was awarded the Special Recognition award at the NTAs. How can you not know by now? It's just wonderful, really. To see him recognized for his incredibly hard work, talent, and achievements was just... Oh geez, I just don't have the words. I'm so happy for him.

Every time I've seen him in an interview, he's always seemed so humble, so amazed that anyone's paying him any attention. I hope he really knows how much everyone loves and respects him. Because a lot of the time, he seems to not really know that, and he should.

I agree entirely. When I first fell for DT, oh, so long ago now, my husband used to scoff whenever he saw him in interviews, saying that it was all an act and that no one, especially someone in the entertainment industry, could be as self-effacing and gracious as Tenant seems to be.

Over the years, however, I've noticed a subtle shift in his comments. Now they're all jabs at the neck beard in Broadchurch (which he loves so much he won't watch it until all the episodes are out and he can just binge it) and he actually seeks out anything with DT in it, which makes my life immeasurably easier.

If only there were more people like him in the world.

Wonderful news! :D (Yes, news. I live under a rock. But I have blankets!)

I've had to corral some of the tumblr blogs I follow into a "STFU about David Tennant" folder because it's been such an echo chamber of videos and gifs and etc. between this and Broadchurch (and DT's general awesomeness! I say "STFU" with affection). At first I was like geez people, maybe someone cries during an acceptance speech but what are you all on about, crying watching it?

And then I watched it.

He has definitely earned it!! A talented, wonderful human being!

Gahhh...it always amazes me when they are so SURPRISED. Dammit. He should know he is adored! And rather hardcore at that!
