Shouldn't there be a 'Spouse' entry. Or how does she get to have a surname that is neither father's nor mother's ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Heinrich k (talk • contribs) 11:59, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
It's because Peter Davison's real name is Peter Moffett. 62.190.112.2 (talk) 13:49, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
I added this to the article to make this clear The Stumo (talk) 02:58, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
She is actually the Doctor's daughter in "real life", as she is the child of Peter Davison, who played the fifth Doctor.
This needs to be re-worded, as she's "actually" the daughter of someone who played the Doctor in "real life". Camillus 10:17, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
exc ept people ask about this a soon as they find out. So really fairly relevant. Jeremlurker (talk) 08:51, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
Highly relevant & interesting IMHO — Preceding unsigned comment added by 135.196.5.155 (talk) 11:39, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
It is speculation. It makes not a blind bit of difference if it's the press speculating or not. Unless it is confirmed by Tennant or Moffett, it should not be included. "A friend says" is not good enough. Seraphim♥Whipp 23:28, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
It would be one thing if people would reference the articles about the several events that they have gone to together. At least that would be in the realm of "interesting enough to note, but still not from Miss Moffett's mouth". Adding in the bits without sources is just going to get reverted. Wish people would look at the talk pages. --Human.v2.0 (talk) 00:24, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
Doesn't this source take the dating issue beyond "speculation"? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1216824/Romantic-date-David-Tennant-treats-girlfriend-night-theatre.html MisterJayEm (talk) 04:20, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
About the most recent tabloid speculation that she is pregnant: The Sun is a tabloid and not a reliable source. As long as Moffett or Tennant or their agents don't confirm it, photos of Moffett where she looks to be pregnant aren't worth including in their articles. They are both trying to keep their personal lives private − Wikipedia should respect that. --Tabya (talk) 14:17, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
@User:Marker10 Did you read Wikipedia:BLP? As soon as it's officially confirmed (and not just with a pap picture) we can add it to their articles. Why do you think it isn't in Tennant's article? No one is denying it, it just couldn't be more obvious that they wish to keep their private life out of the press. Respect that, please. --Tabya (talk) 16:55, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
Really? There's not much of a way to expand it other than mentioning her father (something I think would be improper for a lead designed to note her history, not his) or providing repetitions of the work history. If there was more to summarize then I could see the note, but as is it seems to be an unnecessary use of a frankly random tag. --Human.v2.0 (talk) 17:33, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
Couple of things, first she is a mother, shouldn't this be mentioned? She and her son have been in multiple magazines and on TV show together so it's not hard to source. Second BBC press release gives her character's name on Casualty as Heather. [1] I can't log-in from this computer so I can't edit the page. 80.44.181.55 (talk) 12:25, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
Uhm, what happened to this article? Didn't it used to be more extended? Now it seems a stub compared to the Dutch article... Markfan (talk) 13:47, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
why was the info about her father having played Dr Who, and ger coincidentally appearing in Dr Who as the offspring of the doctor removed. Whether this is coincidence or planned (it is coicidence) is a very common question for people when they find out info out. It seems unreasonable to remove one small line of fairly important info
I shall leave this here for a time for comment. If none received I shall re insert the information —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeremlurker (talk • contribs) 08:50, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

"She became pregnant at 16, and gave birth to a son, Tyler, on 22 March 2002."
This is chronologically impossible. Being born in 1984, she would have been 16 in 2000. Given that human beings have a gestation period of approximately 9 months (give or take a few weeks), she would have given birth either that year or the next (2000 or 2001).
This means one of three things:
Nerdy side notes for talk page: Her father played the 5th Doctor, and she later played the 10th Doctor's daughter. Prior to this role, she had auditioned for the part of Rose Tyler, and her son's name is Tyler. Given that he was born before the show restarted in 2005, it couldn't have been intentional though. Odd coincidences. 75.48.28.142 (talk) 09:30, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
EDIT: After checking the sources, I've determined the error was in her son's birth year. The sources all say 17, so it should say 2001. 75.48.28.142 (talk) 09:59, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
2nd EDIT: UGH. Many of the sources say both 17 AND 2002. Which would imply a 1985 birth year. Now I'm just confused. I give up. Fix it once you figure it out. 75.48.28.142 (talk) 10:11, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
I reckon this girl and her parents are responsible for a huge amount of the sexing up of politics and the media moving and helping a young public into thinking about families which has stimulated(!) population growth becoming a dream for the likes of Tony Blair and Alex Salmond and a nightmare for several more politicians. You'd be hard pressed to find a less flattering picture of this person. Harsh. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.165.147.50 (talk) 19:24, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
Why hasn't the rest of Georgia's theatre work been added to her page? She performed in Total Eclipse in 2007, and Hens in 2010. There is no table for her theatre work either (I can't work out how to add one in). She's due to perform in What The Butler Saw this year in London, and this has been added to her main page... A source for Total Eclipse is on her fansite which has provided a review of the play.

I deleted this line (my delete was reverted without explanation so I've re-deleted): "Neither Tennant nor Moffett have ever spoken about their relationship publicly, and they have never posed for press photographers together." There are substantial reports in multiple outlets of Tennant discussing the relationship in radio shows and Moffett has spoken about it on Breakfast TV, amongst other places. The "never posed for press photographers" is unsupported opinion. Jamesinderbyshire (talk) 07:47, 21 April 2012 (UTC) That is completely false! Georgia has not even been on Breakfast TV since 2005 and they did not meet till 2008!! Please give links to some of these interviews because I run one of the biggest fansites and go to their forums daily and none of us (DT/GM fandom) has ever heard of these interviews. DT's definitely never talked about his relationship in any of his radio interviews apart from the one announcement about the adoption. The last time he was on the radio he bit the DJs head off for asking if he and his wife would like to go out to dinner because the DJ broke a rule that his wife wasn't to be mentioned. DT says in interviews all the time that he has a rule about never talking about his relationships in the press. As for posed pics its how do you prove a negative but the fact there've never been any posed pics online or in the press surely proves it?? The article said they've never posed for press photographers. The only pics online are non-posed pap pics. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.210.32.85 (talk) 17:57, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
She was born Georgia Moffett and married David Tennant. Tennant is his stage name and his legal name as stated on his page is David John McDonald. Shouldn't her married surname be McDonald? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Whovian42 (talk • contribs) 23:01, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
According to a source I just checked David Tennant legally changed his surname from Macdonald to Tennant to satisfy the Screen Actors Guild of America (their rules apparently state that the actor or actress' stage name must be the same as their legal name). I can't yet find a source that says that he's changed his name in the UK - if he has changed his name in the UK, then I will withdraw my original concern re. Georgia Moffett's surname. Whovian42 (talk) 22:52, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
The above, re. David's name change & the family adopting his new name, is interesting and unusual, and suggests a degree of committment from all concerned. I'd heard the couple dated but did not realize they were still together & indeed had started a family, married, raising 4 children etc. - both seem lovely people and well suited, so very happy to discover all that today :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 135.196.5.155 (talk) 11:47, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
The article states that their 4th child's name is Doris and cites a Daily Mail article, source number 35. However, that article does not state their daughter's name and in fact, specifically says that it was not released at the time. A cursory Google search and the only source I can find is an uncredited comment on IMDb which I don't think counts as an actual source in terms of Wikipedia.

Tennant is her legal name and currently used professional name. Yes, she had many credits under “Moffett,” but lately her credits appear as “Georgia Tennant” according to IMDB. Most tellingly, the series “Staged” (2020-2021) features many actors playing themselves, including Georgia, and she is credited as Georgia Tennant. Her interview with The Guardian here: https://amp.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2021/jan/03/staged-bbc-anna-lundberg-georgia-tennant-david-michael-sheen-scenes-with-all-four-of-us-usually-involved-alcohol 2604:3D08:537F:F060:21BA:5A34:BD4F:8534 (talk) 23:21, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
Should we get a more recent photo of her? It is obviously outdated therefore limiting its usefulness. Allegedlycorporeal (talk) 19:50, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
