I never had this trouble with the Tardis: David Tennant struggles with his newborn's buggy
I HAVE PUT 0% EFFORT INTO THIS SHIT POST.
In Doctor Who, he successfully tackled alien menaces from Daleks to giant wasps.
But when David Tennant was faced with dismantling his newborn daughter’s pushchair, it was a somewhat different story.
The actor faced a battle to collapse the contraption and fit it into his car and may have wished his vehicle was more like the Tardis – bigger on the inside.
If only he still had the Time Lord’s trusty sonic screwdriver to hand.

Matt Smith doesn't think The Doctor would wed
'Doctor Who' Matt Smith says The Timelord is not the marrying kind because he's too much of a womaniser.
'Doctor Who' star Matt Smith says The Timelord is not the marrying kind.
The actor - who is the 11th doctor in the BBC One sci-fi series - can't see his alter-ego ever tying the knot because he's too much of a womaniser, despite speculation that Alex Kingston's character River Song is actually his wife.
He said: "He's too much of a space bachelor. The universe is his mistress and he's not giving her up for anyone!
"He finds marriage all rather peculiar, I have to say. To him, spending his whole life with someone is an alien concept. Shouold he meet the girl of his dreams and they travel around together? Naaah! He wants to keep them coming. He loves the attention of a beautiful young lady on his arm. The Doctor gets to flirt - he gets all that - he just doesn't get all the rubbish stuff. He doesn't have to clean up!"
Matt also revealed how he would like to play The Timelord for the foreseeable future but doesn't know what's going to happen.
He told Radio Times magazine: "I take it year by year. I would hope that this year wouldn't be my last, but you don't know. I would like to do next year as well, I think. But these matters are unto the gods!"
MTV Geek Interview: Matt Smith Talks Doctor Who!
On the relationship between Amy Pond and The Doctor:
"The Doctor will always love Amy, but he loves her the way you would a friend, a best friend."
"I think the Doctor loves Amy Pond, he's capable of loving people, but he's an alien...he doesn't see love in the conventional way we see it."
On the new villain, The Silence:
"I think The Silence is one of the greatest monsters in Who history!"
On the essential quality of what makes Doctor Who great:
"The great thing about Doctor Who is that you can jump into Episode 6 of Season 6, and the fundamental storytelling is the same: a madman comes along and saves the day with a toaster and a piece of string."
On the uniqueness of the Doctor role:
"It's a bit like Hamlet: every actor has a different version."
On returning for Season Seven:
"I don't know, I'm going to sit down and see with Mr. Moffat what happens after this particular season. I'd certainly like to come back, but…we have to wait and see I guess. Watch this space."
On reaching out to American audiences:
"We really think that Doctor Who is a universal idea -- so we hope that people in the States pick it up and enjoy it!"
