9. He's Met Postman Pat
David sure does like to leave his mark on British institutions, doesn't he? Last year he crossed over to another dimension - in this case it was an animated one - to star in the highly anticipated (well, it was by a certain generation, at least) and tragically underrated Postman Pat movie 'You Know You're The One'. David voiced the character of Wilf (not to be confused with Donna's grandfather who was indirectly responsible for the Tenth Doctor's death) in the "computer animated children's fantasy science fiction horror comedy film" (sorry... what?) but, let's face it, he should've just been given the prestigious title role of Pat himself, shouldn't he? Robbed. Postman Pat's big screen outing wasn't David's first foray into the world of animated adventures post-Doctor Who. In 2010 he lent his voice to a Viking called Spitelout in How To Train Your Dragon and in 2012 he proved that a pirate's life was for him when he starred as Charles Darwin in Aaardman's The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists!. Is there anything he can't do?
