David Tennant on How the Golden Globes Informed His BAFTAs Hosting Stint: ‘Don’t Diss’ Taylor Swift
'Doctor Who' star David Tennant on hosting the BAFTAs and taking lessons from the Golden Globes: 'Don't diss' Taylor Swift.
Since only recently opting to have a new host each year, the BAFTA Film Awards have had various big names on master of ceremonies duties including Joanna Lumley, Graham Norton, Rebel Wilson and Richard E. Grant. According to sources at the British Academy, the announcement that David Tennant would be overseeing the U.K.’s biggest night for film on Feb. 18 was met with an overwhelmingly positive response that even they weren’t expecting. Speaking to Variety ahead of the ceremony, Tennant discusses keeping things friendly on stage, how the interest in what he’s going to wear has matched the excitement about his first “Doctor Who” outfit and why he won’t be aiming any jokes at the biggest name in pop (whether she’s in the room or not).
