David Tennant adds lyrics to Broadchurch theme

Показать описание

David Tennant adds amazing comedy lyrics to the haunting Broadchurch TV show theme song. David spent the morning co-hosting the Absolute Radio Breakfast Show with his mate Christian O'Connell.
By popular request, here are the lyrics in full:

-----------
My name is Detective Alec Hardy .
I like to wear unironed shirts and stare at the horizon ...and pop pills like Smarties.
I haven't shaved properly since 1993.
I also like walking on the beach and not talking about my feelings.
My best friend is DS Ellie Miller, which is surprising because she does a lot of crying and it's quite uncomfortable.
Her wobbly bottom lip is BAFTA-winning though.
Sometimes I talk really quietly, AND SOMETIMES I SHOUT A LOT FOR NO REASON AT ALL, ESPECIALLY WHILE RUNNING.
It's called "for dramatic effect". And it's won us loads of awards, if it ain't broke... you know what I mean?
Anyway, filming on a beach isn't bad you know - and was nothing like Doctor Who - so that's nice.
Yes it stars me - and Arthur Darvill who played Rory - but it's NOTHING LIKE DOCTOR WHO.
And Nobody's noticed Gwen from Torchwood because it ISN'T DOCTOR WHO.
Or that the young journalist was also once in Doctor Who.
As was the psychotherapist
And Olivia Coleman.
But like I say it's NOTHING LIKE DOCTOR WHO.
People say to me, hey, aren't you that guy who played a transsexual Barmaid called Davina in the Scottish TV production Rab C Nesbitt?
And I say, yeah, Who's asking?
They always laugh at that. I never understand why. So I take more of my meds.
My name is Detective Alec Hardy. Full time man of the law, part time line dancer and everyone's favourite Alec - after Baldwin.

The "nothing like Doctor Who" line gets even funnier since David Bradley and Jodie Whittaker are now both also incarnations of The Doctor.

I never expected to hear David's natural voice. It's fantastic. But it's nothing like Dr. Who. :)

This is so perfect. I remember watching a scene where Arthur, Olivia, and David (Paul, Ellie, and Alec) were sitting on a bench, and I was almost screaming at the television, "MAKE A REFERENCE, DAMMIT!"

Well I`ll be damned.We need more actors like him.How exactly is this guy not getting anywhere near the recognition he deserves worldwide, is beyond me.What a career, and what an absolutely amazing talent.Brilliant, just friggin´ brilliant.I`m lost for words.

"out bloody-standing" "stop wittering" two of my favourite Alec Hardy phrases!

CathieH

I had to listen to this twice, once to feel his voice caress my ear drums and once to laugh at the jokes

Just when I thought I couldn't possibly love David any more!
