Writing is So Not My Day Job

They are filming a pool scene today for Rex. Please someone get pics. *begs*

They're at the Hilton Checkers Hotel, 535 S. Grand Ave in LA.

The shoot schedule is currently listed from Dec 4th - Dec 19th, so it looks as though DT will miss the premieres of Hamlet and St. Trinian's 2. :( Ah well.

EDIT: No pool today - still raining.

For those in the LA area, DT is reportedly filming Rex today, from 4am to 8pm (Pacific Time) in the Bank of America Center, 333 S. Hope St.

For those in the US, note that BBC America has scheduled a little something special (Thank you Julie Gardner!) on December 19th (all times Eastern):

5:30pm: DW: The Next Doctor
6:45pm: DW: Planet of the Dead

***8:00pm: DW: Inside the TARDIS
One-hour special chronicling David Tennant's time in the TARDIS. Through
exclusive interview footage and clips from earlier episodes, revisit the Doctor's
history and get a sneak peek at what the final series of specials holds in store
for him.***

9:00pm: DW: The Waters of Mars (US Premiere)
10:20pm: DW Inside Look - pt 1
10:30pm: Graham Norton DW Special #2 (This looks like a cutdown of DT's recent visit to the show)
11:00pm: DW: Inside the TARDIS (repeat)

All shows repeat in the wee hours of 12/20 until 5am, for the night owls out there.

*dances*

More details are now out on the DW Specials Boxset, due to be released in North America on February 2nd (January 11th in the UK) - there'll be 5 discs in total, and will contain all 5 specials, in addition to over 7 hours worth of special features.

( More info and small pic behind the cut! )

Just to keep my head on straight and not forget anything, I made a handy list for first-run stuffs! Feel free to add anything I'm missing.

Per david_tennant on twitter:

CONFIRMED Tonight David Tennant and Catherine Tate filmed Alan Carr's Chatty Man (for broadcast 29/12).

Geez, there's going to be a MAJOR Tennantpalooza around Christmas, isn't there? So far, there's DW (of course), Hamlet, QI, NMTB and this - I could swear I'm still missing something....

DT to star in 'Rex is Not Your Lawyer'

Rex is Not Your Lawyer (Drama). A successful, high-powered attorney begins having debilitating panic attacks in court that close up his throat and prevent him from speaking. Instead of giving up his practice, he teaches his clients to represent themselves instead. Written by Andrew Leeds and David Lampson. Casting: Junie Lowry Johnson and Libby Goldstein, 100 Universal City Plaza, Bungalow 5165, Universal City, CA 91608. Shoots in mid-October.

Now we know what DT was up to when he was here for the three weeks in October! Mixing a little bit of work with a holiday, indeed - ha!

And... if you'd like to get a feel for what the show will be like, you can check out some of the auditions (sadly no DT) where snippets of dialogue are read, presumably in the style of the show, here: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Rex+Is+Not+Your+Lawyer&search_type=&aq=f

Warning for the massive spoilers, obviously! I'll try to snag some in a bit if they don't turn up on the official sites.

EDIT: Here we go. DT.com has some of them. Much love for the last one. http://tennantnews.blogspot.com/2009/10/new-sarah-jane-hq-stills.html

And Week 45 is now up at the BBC Press Office - still no mention of Waters of Mars. *sighs* Well, at least it won't be on while I'm away on November 7th....
