David Tennant's 'miracle escape' after he's almost hit by car on set
ok.co.ukDavid Tennant may play an immortal demon on Good Omens but he's revealed that he came close to death whilst filming the second series.
The Doctor Who star said "it's a miracle" he wasn't "hit by a car" on the Good Omens set after struggling to see thanks to his character's costume.
The 52-year-old, who returns as Crowley for season 2 of the fantasy comedy, said that the demon's snake-eyed contact lenses make acting "quite a challenge". "It seems like night when it is day – and then if I add the dark glasses – I basically fumble around." "In the first scene we shot this season, I had to cross the road which we had populated with moving cars and hundreds of supporting artists to recreate busy Soho - and I couldn’t see a thing," he added. “It’s a miracle I was not hit by a car - maybe the mojo of Crowley just stopped them!
