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.

I remember that episdoe of Blue Peter, how old am I!

Clowns have always creeped me out, so I had to laugh and sympathise with DT on that. My worst childhood party nightmare was a clown making balloon animals - I hate the noise balloons make when they're rubbed together *shudders at the memory*

Mine? We went to the circus and my poor, misguided parents (thinking they were arranging for a treat for small me) finagled the clown into taking me for a ride around the ring in his tiny clown car. ::shudders::

I was trapped in a small car with a clown. There's two phobias explained for you right there.
