- David takes a trip to Derry City Football Club, the team his Grandfather Archie played for back in 1932. David discovers that in 1938 Archie sustained serious injuries, which ended his career. He also discovers that Archie had married a local beauty queen called Nellie Blair.
Famous for playing the time-traveller Dr Who, David Tennant has decided to abandon the Tardis and investigate his own history.
David was born in Bathgate, a post-industrial town between Glasgow and Edinburgh, in 1971. His father, Alexander McDonald, is a minister in the Church of Scotland. David changed his second name, as many actors do. Tennant being inspired by The Pet Shop Boy's Neil Tennant.
Beginning his historical investigations by focusing on his father's side of the family, David quickly discovered that the paper trail goes cold relatively early on. This means David's hope of tracing his family back to the time of the clans would take a huge amount of research, so he instead turned his attention to the ancestry of his maternal grandfather, Archie McLeod.

I swear his accent is so much stronger when he's in Scotland and Ireland... lol. I love it though.
I think it's more that it's weaker when he's in England, and it's normal when he's in Scotland
Yeah most Scots have to ‘dilute’ their accent to make it more understandable when talking to non-scots.
@@KMEECHY Yet Irish and Scots understand one another very well. I'm Scottish of Irish background like David and many Scots. Best of both!
The only place in the world with 6 silent letters
The club is called Derry City, not _london_ Derry City.
Interesting, David! I find ancestry very interesting, as I see you did in that video too. I think it's just knowing that previous members of your family have had a life on the exact place your standing on that gives you the feeling of excitement. Especially when you know someone that knew people like your grandparents well.
The London is silent
I'm waiting for somebody to say, "did you see that ludicrous display?!"
"Derry City's home ground in Londonderry in Northern Ireland" - that sentence sums up perfectly how
ridiculous it is to prefix London onto and already fully formed name that has historical significance.
Londonderry means absolutely nothing and only signifies colonialism.
bbc at their usual uselessness. Not paid the scum in 5 years. Never will
Best call New Nork New Amsterdam then because that's what it was called before the English colonised it from the Dutch
@@douglasballantine2712 New Amsterdam was already a colonial name
@@seanward98 ah ok, do you know the original native name we should call it by?
@@douglasballantine2712 No because it was a city created by Colonialists, and the natives are completely gone.
Doire on the other hand still has a thriving Irish population with our own Irish sports and Language.
Love david
"Londonderry in Northern Ireland "....
Never heard of it....Oh you mean Derry City in the north of Ireland...🇮🇪🇮🇪
Northern Ireland exists mate its a geopolitical reality
@Colloquial Soliloquy oh so we're favouring the 'natives'? Protestants were correct in fearing a unified Ireland looking at the treatment of Protestants in the south, not that I'm taking anytging away from what happened to catholic in Northern Ireland which has thankfully been remedied. Northern Ireland is a state which respects both sides now like the south, and should probably stay that way since a united Ireland would inevitably lead to a cultural death to the unique culture of the North
@Colloquial Soliloquy sysemtaiclly Catholics in the North but to say Notting happend to Protestants is an understatement
@Colloquial Soliloquy no but they should be able to have their own self determination against the majority of the Island that's all I'm saying like having their own state
@Colloquial Soliloquy no I'm not I'm favour of them having more votes no, I'm in favour of them having their own state to which they can call their own
I like David. He is a hoot.
Hi you know the boy Matt you were talking to that’s my great uncle DCFC
Wow, I'm related to Doctor Who!
Eleven got his football skill from him human grandfather.
I live in Derry
Never heard of that place
'Derry City FC in Londonderry"
Derry City FC in Derry you gowl
Pretty sure the city’s called Londonderry mate
Freederry
my name is joe wilson i am proud to say i played for derry city f c 1965 t0 1968 dur that time we won all that was available , i have some wonderful menouries of that time .
Good fer u y is ur message typed like a fortnite scam
@Paul Muggins Free Scotland?? We voted to remain in the Union FFS..
@Colloquial Soliloquy You obviously dont live in Scotland kid - you haven't got a clue have you.
@@mrfrisky2997 You obviously don't either, the Scottish people voted the SNP as the largest party in Scotland, and in their manifesto for the last general election was a call for another referendum on the independence for Scotland.
Derry city ☘️☘️☘️☘️
Try calling it londonderry to a Derry City fan...
Brits out.
It's Derry
My dad is that
City people and their English traditions of going to soccer games, though who am I to talk, I was probably watching Coronation Street when this was filmed
I didn't know ex Celt , Paddy McCourt , played for Derry City .
That’s why we called him “The Derry Pele”
You didn't know the Derry Pele played for Derry!?
One of my favourite players of all time, watchin him was poetry in motion. Pity he's such a devil for the drink
No , to be honest , I didn't follow his career after he left Celtic . Paddy was a very good footballer but from what I hear , his attitude and lack of work rate and consistency , were the reasons he didn't quite cut it at Celtic .
All PC ways of saying he was a p*ss head
He started at Derry :)
Come back now youll be surprised
@Adam Sloan whole new stadium
