Assembly SOL

[Scouse Hibee]

The Assembly Q&A with David Tennant, the group played and sang SOL at the end, it was so moving.

[hibsbollah]

:agree: such a thought provoking programme and that was a beautiful rendition too. Tennant clearly in bits.

[04Sauzee]

Theres a Michael Sheen one too.

Cheers I will be checking that one out this evening 👍
As I say an absolutely brilliant watch.

[Scorrie]

Great hibby, even if he doesn't openly admit it. :thumbsup:

David Tennant a Hibby? Wow we keep adding to our list of famous Hibees

[KWJ]

Great watch, thanks for sharing.

[Mcbizz1998]

Can’t stand Tennant but that was pretty cool at the end 👍

[SHODAN]

Tennant is an absolute hero, hope he's one of us.

[linlithgowhibbie]

Wearing a maroon top though????

[gbhibby]

Better version of SOL than Coldplays

[1875Sean]

Great hibby, even if he doesn't openly admit it. :thumbsup:

Where did you get he’s a hibs fan from? Could only see Liverpool online

[DIXIHIBS]

He's not. Think folk are kidding. He's from Bathgate...probably a hun lol.

[theonlywayisup]

Claims to have no interest in football and doesn't support any football team.

His grandad was a prolific goalscorer for Derry City and he's got relatives in Northern Ireland.

[mcohibs]

He's not. Think folk are kidding. He's from Bathgate...probably a hun lol.

If his family history on Wikipedia is accurate then most definitely!

[ancient hibee]

It’ll be Partick Thistle then (the team for anyone in the public eye).

[Renfrew_Hibby]

It’ll be Partick Thistle then (the team for anyone in the public eye).

David grew up in the Paisley area, his father was a well kent and popular Church of Scotland minister. He said before that he just never was interested I football but if he were to have a team it would be the Buddies.

[aljo7-0]

He is a big fan of The Proclaimers- presented a show about them on BBC Scotland. Probably just as simple as that.

[Hibspur]

Can’t stand Tennant but that was pretty cool at the end 👍

I've always found him irritating too, in a similar way to Alan Cumming (aside from his phenomenal turn in Cabaret).

For some reason I thought he was a Rangers fan.

I think you're right. :agree:

I thought he was a Hibby based on his biography, but just read some of it again and it isn't what I remember. (Funny how memory can play tricks).

I think you're right. He's not interested in the football at all, but grew up in Bathgate from an ulster-Scot background and has been a big fan of The Proclaimers from a young age.

[Mcbizz1998]

Pleased to hear he isn’t a Hibby, I must say.

[Baader]

He's not into football but from a Rangers family

[HarpOnHibee]

Pleased to hear he isn’t a Hibby, I must say.

What do you have against David Tennant Personally? Seems like a pretty upstanding guy to me.

Might have been born in Bathgate but most certainly grew up in Paisley!
Paisley Grammar old boy, even has a place in the Buddies walk of fame in the town.

You may be right. I like David Tennant in any case. Seems like a great guy with a huge social conscience, despite his high profile.

Thanks for sharing. What a brilliant idea for a programme. Really enjoyed that and thought David T came across really well. Brilliant watch and I will now watch the other shows.

I think he's a great actor and have no problem with him, brought up in Paisley, dad a Scottish minister, big Proclaimers fan, that's why SOL, seems to rub some people up the wrong way....all about opinions I guess, he isn't on Badenoch or Rowling's Xmas card list, so that will do for me 🤣

Watched this today before I left for work, which was with a both neurodivergent and learning disabled young person. So, just want to thank you really, Scouse Hibee, for sharing this, it was another source of inspiration I’ve encountered the last wee while, after a little bit of a challenging time recently for me.

That’s lovely mate, thank you and I wish you well as you move forward.

Moving, such a great song

Feelgood thread hijack.

Feelgood thread hijack.

Sorry if any of that is me: honestly. I’ll drop out now.

[gbhibby]

This thread has gone a bit off track.

[Scouse Hibee]

This thread has gone a bit off track.

Yes it has, seems all too often to be the way on here.

[gbhibby]

Yes it has, seems all too often to be the way on here.

Remember the Liverpool fans in the 60s singing Beatles songs before YNWA, imagine if they hadn't adopted YNWA and went with a Beatles track.

[HNA12]

Can we please get back on topic. Yet another decent thread derailed.

[CyberSauzee]

Just watched it on ITV. A great watch and a beautiful rendition of SOL.

[cubehindthegoal]

I apologise if I contributed to that. It wasn’t my intention, I honestly just commented as I saw it, after watching it today, and meant it kindly to all when I shared.

Perhaps this isn’t the place, or time. My mistake, in place, and time. Sorry Scouse for derailing it. Not intended at all.

It wasnt aimed at you :aok:

[JimBHibees]

Really enjoyed the show. The rendition of Sunshine on Leith was beautiful

[Tarrahib]

Just watched the clip. Thank you,thank you,thank you.

[Keith_M]

Thanks for sharing that mate.

My nephew is Autistic and sometimes struggles a bit but I REALLY wouldn't want to be questioned (grilled) by him in public, he'd make it seem like an interrogation. 😀

[Green Reaper]

Thanks for sharing that Scouse, a great watch and you could tell it all meant so much to David, thought he was going to loose it with SoL, as I usually do.

[ekhibee]

I thought he was just born in Bathgate, brought up in Paisley?
