Tennant In Who's Who 2007

If proof were needed, David Tennant has had his A-list celebrity status confirmed by being included in the UK's annual publication of Who's Who 2007, which is a directory of society's rich, famous and influential. The reference work has been published since 1849 and has become a benchmark of the genuinely famous in public life.

Tennant, one of the 1000 new entries, was by tradition invited to submit his potted biography. New entries are given free rein to write their submission, but Tennant restricted himself to basic details, which are descibed by Wednesday's Scotsman as "tantalisingly brief. He mentions his father, the Very Rev Alexander McDonald, but not his mother. He gives no details about his love life and does not list any recreations." He lists himself under his real name, David John McDonald, 35-year-old from Renfrewshire.

Other new entries include presenter Noel Edmonds, veteran actor Denis Lawson (listed as Ewan McGregor's uncle), Dame Maggie Smith's actor son Toby Stephens, comedy actor and writer Sanjeev Bhaskar, author Kate Mosse, and the designer of the iPod Jonathan Ive.

The book is published on Wednesday 3rd January, at the noteworthy price of 145 pound sterling. It is not known if those listed receive a complimentary copy. Further details can be found here.
