David Tennant
(Guest)
Born:
April 18, 1971
in
Bathgate, West Lothian
Best Known For:
Being the 10th Doctor Who.
Early-life:
Born David John MacDonald on April 18, 1971, in Bathgate, West Lothian, Scotland, the youngest of a vicar's three children. At the age of three he announced he wanted to be an actor because he loved Doctor Who so much. At 17 he began studying at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama in Glasgow before embarking on his first professional roles at the Young Vic theatre. He changed his name because there was already an actor named David MacDonald, adopting the surname of Pet Shop Boys singer Neil Tennant.
Career:
Tennant's TV debut was in a 1993 episode of Rab C Nesbitt, but he first made people sit up and take notice thanks to an acclaimed performance in Takin' Over the Asylum a year later. His first film was 1996's Jude. He then appeared in the likes of Duck Patrol, Love in the 21st Century, Bright Young Things and He Knew He Was Right. In 2004, musical mini-series Blackpool helped raise his profile, while Casanova turned him into a heart-throb. Tennant replaced Christopher Eccleston in Doctor Who in 2005, but left the role at the start of 2010; he did, however, return for the 50th anniversary episode in 2013. Projects since include Single Father, Fright Night and Broadchurch - he is also the star of the US version, Gracepoint. He continues to appear on stage whenever possible.
Quote:
"I've always been a geek and slightly awkward. I was never the cool kid at school."
Trivia:
In 2011, Tennant married Georgia Moffett, daughter of fellow Doctor Who star Peter Davison.

in
London
Best Known For:
Playing Mick Carter in EastEnders.

After being spotted by an agent while still at school he made his TV acting debut at the age of 16 in Prime Suspect 3. He went on to appear in episodes of Cadfael, A Touch of Frost, Ruth Rendell Mysteries, The Bill and Soldier Soldier.
Career:
Dyer's first film was 1999's Human Traffic and he followed this up with roles in a number of low-budget movies, including Borstal Boy (2000), High Heels and Low Lifes (2001), Mean Machine (2001), The Football Factory (2004), Adulthood (2008) and Vendetta (2013). Dyer had a lead role in Run for Your Wife (2013), which was savaged by film critics and only took £602 during its opening weekend. He has also appeared in a number of stage productions, including Celebration and No Man's Land, and has presented documentaries about football and hardmen. In 2013, he joined the cast of EastEnders as Mick Carter.
Quote:
His views on film critic Mark Kermode, who has made disparaging remarks about Dyer's work: "If I see him I don't know how I'm going to react. I'll probably just put the nut on him."

In 2007, Dyer became the chairman of non-league football team Greenwich Borough.
Gary Lineker
(Guest)
Born:
November 30, 1960
in
Leicester
Best Known For:
Being an England football hero, a TV pundit and crisps promoter.
Early-life:
Born Gary Winston Lineker on November 30, 1960, in Leicester, where his parents were greengrocers. He has a younger brother, Wayne, who is a member of The Only Way Is Essex cast. Gary's final report after leaving the local grammar school with just four O-levels said: "Must devote less of his time to sport if he wants to be a success." After ditching cricket to concentrate on football, he achieved his childhood dream of playing for Leicester City when he signed for them as a teenager.
Career:
After making his name as a free-scoring striker with Leicester, he moved to Everton. He enjoyed phenomenal success in Mexico during the 1986 World Cup, winning the Golden Boot as top scorer. After that, Lineker signed for Barcelona, returned to England to play with Tottenham Hotspur three years later, and finished his career in Japan with Grampus 8 in 1994. He was never booked or sent off, won 80 caps for England, and is the country's second highest scorer after Bobby Charlton. He now presents Match of the Day, and has built a reputation as a reliable TV regular, also fronting programmes during the Olympics and for Al Jazeera Sports and the NBC Sports Network.
Quote:
"Football is a game for 22 people that run around, play the ball, one referee who makes a slew of mistakes, and in the end Germany always win."
Trivia:
Lineker has been fronting light-hearted adverts for Walkers Crisps since 1995.
