David Tennant announces he is launching a podcast with Jodie Whittaker, Olivia Colman and Michael Sheen dropping by

David Tennant is launching a podcast with some famous friends popping by for a chat each episode.

The former Doctor Who star will catch up with Oscar-nominated Olivia Colman - who he starred alongside in ITV hit Broadchurch - in the first instalment next week.

Tennant will also chat to current Doctor Jodie Whittaker, Michael Sheen, Whoopi Goldberg and even former Prime Minister Gordon Brown while on the airwaves.

In a video on his new official podcast Twitter page, Tennant said: “Hello, the Internet, it’s David Tennant here telling you that I’m doing a podcast slightly inexplicably called ‘David Tennant Does A Podcast With’."

“Lots of cool people coming in and hanging out,” the Scottish star added as he reeled off names they had recorded so far.

The podcast was recorded in London, Los Angeles and New York, and is a production for content company Somethin' Else.

Steve Ackerman, managing director of Somethin' Else said: "This is an interview podcast series like no other. David is chatting with stars who he knows and who know him and the resulting intimate conversation is compelling."

The first episode will be available on streaming services including Spotify from January 28.
