David Tennant's departure costs him... how much?!

Actor David Tennant's bank balance took a hit when he gave up Doctor Who - the decision cost him £1 million, according to new figures.

The Brit's fortune plummeted from £2.5 million to £1.5 million in the first nine months after he gave up his title role in the cult sci-fi series after four years as the Time Lord.


Profits for the star's Sandyboy firm, into which he channels his earnings, also fell by £500,000, according to accounts filed at the official government register of companies.

Tennant filmed his last four episodes as the Time Lord in January 2009 and followed up his Doctor Who stint with a lead role in a Royal Shakespeare Company's production of Hamlet.

    Wow, I miss the 10th Doctor, but I guess it is nice to know that he gave it up because he wanted to continue acting in other parts and didn't stay on just because of the money. (That being said, I still wish he had stayed on a bit longer.)

    A little note: for a good while now we've known for sure he did not "give up Doctor Who for a Shakespeare role". First he gave up Doctor Who, and then he decided/was asked to do Hamlet. Maybe you'd better fix that sentence.
