Since today is lusty May Day I thought I'd give you some of the reviews from Casanova!
". . . played with unmistakeable swagger by David Tennant." - Evening Standard - Pete Clark - March 10, 2005
"Scots stage actor David Tennant will be the name on everyone's lips when Casanova hits BBC Three tomorrow. A star is born." - The Sun 0 Sergei Platt - March 12, 2005
"A puckish David Tennant portrays the libidinous young charmer. . . " - The Times - James Jackson - March 12 2005
"The scrawnily sexy David Tennant
plays the lead as a young man,. . ." - The Sunday Times - Helen Stewart - March 13, 2005
"David Tennant is an actor, last seen in BBC1's Blackpool and with a wealth of stage work behind him, who's always been threatening to become a star. Casanova should finally establish him as such with a dazzling performance full of charm and wit." - The Northern Echo - Steve Pratt - March 14 2005
"Tennant 's portrayal of Casanova. . . is mesmerising." - The Express - Charlie Catchpole - March 14, 2005
MY FAV!!! - "All of this was gleefully enacted by David Tennant
as O'Toole's younger self, bouncing and jumping and throbbing through the part like a human erection." - The Guardian - March 14, 2005
"Tennant , meanwhile, has a kind of feral vivacity, game for anything,. . ." - The Herald- Ian Bell - March 14, 2005
"David Tennant 's supremely metrosexual Casanova looks as if he'd love nothing more than a cosy night in eating Revels and listening to Magic FM. In my book, that makes him an ubermale." - The Times - Sara Lawrence - March 14, 2005
". . .but the real delight
was David Tennant as the younger Casanova
, a perfect combination of ruffled boyish charm and impudent humour." - Financial Times - March 18, 2005
"David Tennant as the young libertine is a bit Robin Askwith with a hint of Kenneth Williams making a guest appearance on
