No Dr Who autographs in Tennant's new role
DIE-HARD Doctor Who fans have been banned from taking sci-fi merchandise to the stage door to be autographed by David Tennant when he treads the boards as Hamlet.
The Bathgate-born actor, 37, will take the role in the Royal Shakespeare Company's production at Stratford-upon-Avon. Director Gregory Doran says fans have already been arriving at the theatre with bags of Doctor Who merchandise to be autographed.
The RSC has now reportedly laid down the law and insisted that only its own memorabilia will be signed by Tennant. A spokesman said: "It is very flattering that there is so much interest in this production, but the sheer volume of requests means that we need to set some limits which will be as fair as possible for everyone."
