  • @TheAlexrider16 I found it on youtube...it's in like 60 peices though

  • Ok, anyone know the name of the 'partner' to David Tennant in this?? He's a cutie and I can't figure it out!

  • @SmileysWar4 His partner is D.C. Blythe, or Bryan Dick in real life.

  • Oh God. That bit at the end where they bob their heads to the sides - started doing that myself without realising I was doing it :P

  • This is awesome.

  • I squeed like the little fan girl that I am.

  • 1:02

    I always love the effect when people instantly appear after a car or truck goes by. It's just cool to me.

  • Can you buy this version of the song??

  • How the heck does Peter/David say so thin??? I don't think there's a single scene he's in where he isn't eating something :P Must have the metabolism of a time lord. Or perhaps running from all his crazed fangirls?

  • I remember when I was a young man in Blackpool and went ot see a Petulengro, think it was Sarah a fortune teller, she told my future then said if I pay her £50 cash she'd "put me in her grandmothers book" and will alsways have good luck. She told me not to tell anyone about it either. 20+ years later I never told anyone and my life is crap

    Its clear they make alot of money from the vulnerable, a lot of money. Cash in the hand - no wonder they all own homes, no wonder ppl slag off 'pikeys'

  • imagine somebody walking up to you saying:

    Alright, you just sit there and pretend to sing into that icecream. xD

  • loved Blackpool and watch this video once a day, really want to watch the whole series again, it had great songs, a great storyline and best of all great actors.

  • i love blackpool , greatest seaside resort on the planet ..

  • who heard elvis say thank you very much at the very end LOL!

  • Wow.. David Tennant + Bryan Dick = OOFT!

  • 1:03 david tennant always has his hands in his pockets in every show when he walks around even in DW

  • Oh, I love this. Great song, fantastic actors, including Tennant and Morrissey. How can it be better?

  • Thank you very much

  • i love that david tennant has the same sort of style hero cape as in Doctor Who.

  • I Like the fact that David is singing into an ice cream near the end lol

  • great show / new tv show called blackpool backstage on sky 201 soon

  • They must have had so much fun shooting this

  • blackpool capital of slot addiction HOW SAD money in the slots sad little chavs

  • Loving the shades, David!

  • its brilliant i love david tennant and david morrissey they are just brilliant

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • I love the elvis bit. That gets me everytime!

  • Best intro ever!!!!

  • Was this show pre- or post David being the dr?

  • @CptReed This was broadcast in 2004 so it was just before he took over as the Doctor.

  • @CptReed Pre Doctor Who -- this show was done in 2004

  • @yoshinibble123 it's the Johnny Cash version.

  • @steve0377 no, it's Kenny Rogers.

  • Could someone tell me if this song is the Kenny Rogers version or the Johnny Cash version?

  • In Blackpool, David reminded of L from Death Note. he just kept on eating sweet things and didn't get fat. XD

  • Only part I really pay attention to: David Tennant singing into his microphone/ice cream cone.

    YUMMMMMMMM.

  • To be that ice cream cone........

  • Agreed.

  • when is this on?

  • @smarts070996 I don't think it's still on. It was a miniseries in 2004. We all miss it dearly. : (

  • Great sequence, would have even been better to add some more minutes of the dialogue between DI Carlisle and his assistant Blythe.

    Anyway... some British actors are just underrated out of the UK. David Morrissey, John Simm, David Tennant... such brilliant, excellent educated, versatiled, adorable performers - but ask for their names in Germany... They all deserve more attention, because they're all perfectionists.

  • @JeannieGene I know exactly what you mean... I'm German and it sometimes really annoys me that they don't know them, or if they do they somehow seem not to understand how brillaint, hugely talented and unique they are. Even Hugh Laurie who is very well known overhere because of House, doesn't get the attention that he deserves as an actor. There are a couple of really great actors in Germany but I'll stick to my British guys!!!

  • @londonberlin89 Yeah, but we have another problem: There's hardly anyone to write scripts slightly comparable to 'Life on Mars', 'Blackpool', 'Secret Smile'... almost don't dare to mention 'Doctor Who'... If 89 in your nickname is the year you were born you won't remember 'All creatures great and small' (took me a while to realize I knew the 5th Doctor a long time before 'Time Crash' was broadcasted). But exactly that series led me to the BBC series of nowadays, finally. I'm thankful... very!

  • @JeannieGene You're right, I don't know it but it was also broadcasted here in Germany and still is in fact so I could watch it ;)...what really annoys me is that no one cares about 'Doctor Who' in Germany. They've only broadcasted the first and the second series with bad synchronisation which doesn't present the wit at all, not to mention David Tennant's German "voice" so it came off rather badly with incredible bad ratings so they got the chop...very sad but the original is better anyway

  • @JeannieGene

    I am German and i know them all O_o.

  • @Welthund Consider yourself lucky, then :-)

  • @JeannieGene You are so right. Bad news for the actors because Hollywood pays a lot more money than the BBC. Good news for us because if these actors go away God knows if we'll see them again. Remember what happened to Patrick McNee from The Avengers...?

  • @JeannieGene I still go insane just wondering why David Tennant has not made it big in hollywood. He is an amazing actor and I really want to be able to go and see him on the big screen here in Canada and have a whole bunch of people say "oh hey, who is that actor?" just for me to say, "YOU KNOW NOTHING".

  • @BeachballOtaku I don't want David to make it big in Hollywood!

    I loved him as the Doctor and I loved him in Blackpool, he's simply a wonderful actor, but I would be happier if fewer people knew him than if everyone knew him and he became the next big thing. Would you really want to see him in some plotless summer blockbuster alongside Zac Effron and Arnold Schwarzenegger?

  • @DragonSporks Well I would think that he would refuse to be in lame films like that :P

  • @DragonSporks Definitely. A bigger career means, that Tennant will be in more movies, and we will see more of him. Most great actors have some pretty bad films on record, but if their acting talents are recognized they keep getting jobs.

  • @JeannieGene: true words..... o.k..... I am german and i have a Tennant poster in my room, and John Simm is god for me but....... true words......

  • I love David Tennant and John Simm. And I´m from Brazil!

  • @JeannieGene

    Hey I live in Germany and I LOVE David Tennant <3

    :D:D

  • @JeannieGene Amen to that!

  • @JeannieGene Love this guys too, here in Germany...

  • @JeannieGene Great point, but how many German actors can you name? Australians?

    You certainly are not trying to say that Brits are the only under-rated actors, but apart from Americans it is true of most nations. Anyway, there plenty of Brits in Hollywood who get more than their fair share of accolades.

  • its the doctor on the left at the end its the doctor of doctor who im talking about

  • singing into the icecream!!! I love you david!

  • is davids assistant matt smith!? becuase i might just flip my shit if it is

  • nah its Bryan Dick who played Adam in a Torchwood episode.

  • somebody know where I can downland this series?

  • @tortuguitarosa Do a search for the story of peter and natalie. it is all there.

  • Shrek fans can look forward to David Morrissey's performance as Rumpelstiltskin in Shrek Forever After.

  • what is the song called? tell me

  • know when to hold  them ... i think

  • JOHNNY CASH - The gambler

  • This version is definitely Kenny Roger's recording. The song itself was originally recorded and written by Don Schlitz.

  • david tennant what a man <3

  • @wiudiva I've been hunting for it too but the show was never marketed in the US (Only UK and Austrailia). You would have to buy the UK dvd and the all-region player to watch it.

  • @cristististi i know i would  also have to buy a dvd player made to play uk movies

  • Anyone know where i can see this movie in full on Youtube or where I can buy the US edition dvd tried amazon but the they dont have it

  • it's a series, I can't find it either

  • its on youtube just type in how peter met natalie. videaos entitled the strory of how peter met natalie 1.0, 1.2 etc all the episodes r in seven parts its how i watched it :)

  • I love Blackpool, David Morrisey and the Gambler. This clip is the fucking one. I am in awe x

  • that must have taken aaaages to film and DT's ice-cream must have melted or got eaten so many times! how many ice-creams they got through fo that one take!?!?! :P

  • I think of this song, and David Tennant every time I eat Ice Creme now. I love this.

  • David Tennant is one very sexy man. The last bit with him eating the ice cream is so cute.

  • you should upload episode 1 and the rest of the series

  • omg my two favouritest people in the world!! David Tennant and Bryan Dick!!! i never knew they did this together!! i was just searching for DT! WOW!!!

  • Graar...I wish they didn't use the vocal tracks for all the songs.

    But in other news, David Tennant is AWSHUM. I like the way he's sitting there at the end. ;)

  • Oh, my... I´m listening it like twenty times in row. Catchy song, nice clip.

  • david tennant is so hot

  • @Tennantgirl15 I tried out for the role of the ice cream cone... Look where THAT got me. I'm jealous. XD

  • David Morrissey should have been the next doctor

  • That guy in black, sitting in the background around 1:54, is that the guy who plays Filch in Harry Potter?

  • Yup

  • I'm pretty sure it is

  • Yep, you're probably right.

  • So, what is that in his ice cream?

  • A Flake, its a chocolae flakey stick thing you can get stuck in the ice cream, which looks like a 99, though they dont cost 99p any more :( very nice

  • It's a pretzel stick. But, oh, to be that ice cream! :)

  • Pretzels in ice cream? how strange! but, oh I so know what you mean. DT is one sexy, sexy man.

  • not pretzel. a flake. piece of chocolate in a square that goes into the icecream. cadbury make it, quite popular in australia and the UK..

  • Well isn't David attractive at 1:05.

  • Which one? :-)

  • Guh, the first part is the best. The eyes and the chest. LOL. :D

  • i havent found this series online (streaming) but i i highly recomend to everyone downloading it. best bet is to use a tor.rent David Tennant is amazing in it. hes got a pretty good voice to boot

  • didnt david morrasy play the other doctor in the christmas?

  • yes he did

  • I thought I could hear them singing...

  • not nearly as yummy. =)

  • ohhh... David Tennant makes me tingly. Yumm...

  • oooohh I know the feeling!

  • What is it with David Tennant and long coats!!

    I love the bit at the end when David T is licking ice cream and singin!

  • They Look Good On Him Thats What It Is

  • Hmmmm.... True!! :P

  • Is that Matt Smith standing with David Tennant as the arcade truck passes by?

  • i dont think so...

  • No, it's Bryan Dick who plays D.C. Blythe

  • no and he also played adam in torchwood

  • Thats what i thought they are VERY similar but no it turns out it is a man named Bryan Dick

  • I used to work in the arcade at the end. It was called the Lucky Star. Went through hundreds of staff in a year. Many got sacked for stealing. I managed to survive for a coupla seasons till I found something steadier. The inside shots were not the same arcade. I think it was a mock up. It does not have the same feel.

  • I love this show. I got the DVD for Xmas (I was just interested ot see if it was still on youtube). Although I only have one complaint - I don't know if anyone else who has seen it has noticed - but when a car pulls away they always use the same tire burning and pull away noise...and I'm pretty sure its from The Sims computer game haha

  • I got it for Christmas too! And you're right about the car noise - it does remind me of the Sims!! :D

  • Me too, David Morrissey is superb in everything. Ripley Holden was such a great character.

  • i cant wait for dr who xmas special and i am obseesed with this song

  • I have been a fan of Kenny Rogers of decades and being a fan of Doctor Who this is for me, fantastic!

  • great video

  • lol

    it'll be interestin to see em both in Dr Who next month..

  • You know what, Tennant is the only person who makes me go into a fangirl squee and damn this does it.  Love the song!

  • brilliant :D

  • I Cant Stopping Listening To This :) I Love It :D
