He was the youngest of three children, a sister, Karen, and a brother, Blair.
Tennant was raised in Ralston, Renfrewshire and started school there, he was first at Ralston Primary school, then at Paisley Grammar school. It was at Paisley that Tennant started showing his talents toward dramatics, which included wanting to play Doctor Who, especially after meeting Tom Baker in Glasgow.
At age 16 he auditioned and won a place at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama - he was the youngest student ever to do so, he started there at 17. Tennant graduated from the RSAMD in 1991 with a B.A. in Dramatic Arts. After graduating from drama school he starred in The resistible Rise of Arturo Ui, an episode of Rab C. Nesbitt, and then Takin' Over the Asylum with Arabella Weir. In an effort to be closer to work, Tennant moved to London.
He is married (2011) to actress and producer Georgia Moffett (daughter of Peter Davison - The Fifth Doctor - and Sandra Dickinson), they have four children. Tyler (from a previous relationship, but adopted by Tennant), Olive, Wilfred, and Doris.
