TV Review: Casanova (David Tennant)

The first thing your Tennant-Who fan needs to track down is Casanova: written by RTD, produced by Gardner, scored by Gold (much of the crew behind the first four seasons of nuWho) and featuring Tennant as the young Casanova.

Their accents are completely different and they don’t even bother faking a shared mannerism or two despite playing the same character at different ages.
