Love Life Update





As filming for David's new BBC drama, Love Life continues we have a quick catch up on the news so far.


It was revealed earlier in the week that both the BBC and ITV have commissioned new dramas with the same name, but whilst David's Love Life has already begun filming ITV's is still in the pre production stage. The Radio Times asks who should change the name here.

Although David and his former Doctor Who co star Billie Piper are starring in different episodes of the drama, it's a series of interlocking stories and so it's likely there will be character cross overs between episodes.

The Press Association released the following cast update for David's episode:


Former EastEnders star Lacey Turner and Bafta-winning actress Vicky McClure have been added to the cast of improvised BBC One drama series Love Life.
They join David Tennant and Billie Piper in the series of five overlapping stories created by writer and director Dominic Savage, which has just begun filming.
Lacey won a bundle of awards for her years playing Albert Square's Stacey Slater and last year appeared in BBC Three's live musical event Frankenstein's Wedding.
Vicky won acclaim for her performance in Channel 4's This Is England 86.
She will play Serena, the first love of Tennant's character Nick, who comes back into his life after many years with Lacey as her younger sister Michelle.
Also added to the cast are Jenny Agutter and Jaime Winstone.
The five programmes look at contemporary love stories and are set in the seaside town of Margate in Kent.

Meanwhile the Thanet Star reported on sightings of David and the director Dominic Savage in Margate.
