The Doctor's Daughter is coming to Big Finish

"Love the running..."

 

So after nearly 10 year, the Jenny's back? Somewhen anyway.

 

That was actually accidently revealed by her dad a few months back.

I wonder if Mr Moffett will make an appearance?

 

Honestly, I'm surprised this didn't happen sooner.

I'm not a fan of "The Doctor's Daughter" (I consider it the singular weak spot of series 4), but I'll probably give this a shot.

I'll be amused if they brought him in as a different character, harking back to his earlier days with Big Finish. That would be a great way not to overshadow Georgia's series.

 

Oh dear, Nick Briggs had a go at Georgia for linking to the Radio Times story on Twitter because BF hadn't officially announced it yet.

Which is pretty crazy when you consider that he probably wants to keep working with her father and her husband...

 

That was really unnecessarily sarcastic of Briggs. I'd like to think that he meant it in good humor, but it's so difficult to judge tone on Twitter.

 

Can't access that - what did he say ?

 

Georgia Tennant posts this: "Dunno who this 'Moffett' girl is but here's what I'M doing next-" with a link to the Radio Times article.

Briggs: "Oh, so that'll be you announcing this, then. Right..."

 

And the sad thing is, she probably saw the story on the RT site and assumed BF had released the information. (As opposed to one of the writers running his mouth off in an unconnected interview about his acting career.)

 

I think that was a safe assumption for her to make. And I can't really fault the Radio Times reporter for running with an article based on what the writer said in an on-the-record interview. Yes, the writer spoke out of turn, but that's no reason for Briggs to come off sarcastically to Georgia because she touted the Radio Times piece.

I know, I know, I'm speaking to the choir here. I've had to learn, in my own career, that just because something's said publicly doesn't necessarily mean that it's public, and sometimes I need to follow up with people and ask them whether or not something that was said on the record can actually be quoted. Media companies have their rollouts, after all, and it's better to stay on their good side (for access) than to be locked out because I made the wrong assumption about the publicness of a public comment.

 

I'm confused, is her last name Tennant or Moffett? I always thought Tennant. Who is she related to that is even named Moffett?

 

Peter Davison is a stage name. He was born Peter Malcom Gordon Moffett.

 

Ahh, thanks for the clarification! Also, that's way too many names.

 

That's the British for you. They often have two middle names.

 

Also, Georgia Tennant is also a stage name, as is David Tennant. David Tennant's real name is David McDonald. I don't know if off-stage Georgia still goes by Moffett or has switched to McDonald though.

 

Nothing can beat Benedict Timothy Carlton Cumberbatch.

 

I'm one of the few who actually enjoyed "The Doctor's Daughter," due primarily to Georgia's performance as Jenny, so I'm looking forward to these audios. Might not get to them in this century however, since I'm way behind in listening to the Eighth Doctor stories.

 

I hate The Doctor's Daughter, especially after reading RTD's proposed treatment for it, which had this event being a "cataclysmic" for the Doctor, an event that would irevocably change and stigma him. But of course, that never happened. Forcing important events rather than inspiring them, RTD, is beneath you. He should've known this.

 

Second series coming soon.

Cool. I've still never heard the audios, but it's nice that this is finally getting followed up on somewhere.
