Another reason to love David Tennant

[kalleah]

I am belatedly watching the Confidential that David directed, and I just had a tremendous moment of squee.  (Okay.  It wasn't actually the only moment of squee, but it's an important one.)

In discussing scary/thrilling monsters in Who history, David said he hadn't really been scared, except for one part in The Deadly Assassin, where the Doctor clears away some sand to reveal ... an evil laughing clown!  David said he was properly scared at that bit.

God bless the man.  He's certainly got the right impressions of clowns, those sneaky bastards.

Clowns are indeed scary! *shivers*

I haven't seen the Deadly Assassin episode so it may be something to check out. My first clown is scary moment on TV came from one of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episodes where the characters were living their worst nightmare. Of course the second moment, that I remembered was during Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Askaban movie when the students are trying to eliminate a Boggart.

Yeah, tv reinforces the idea that clowns are scary.

... that's because CLOWNS ARE SCARY.
