Photos of David Tennant filming St Trinian's II

There are only a few weeks left of shooting St Trinian's II: The Legend of Fritton's Gold and there are some photos of David Tennant shooting some scenes in the Thames:

David, 38, dragged himself out of the river's murky water during a scene where his villainous character, Lord Pomfrey, sinks in his boat. He then had a tussle on the shore with co-star Christian Brassington, 26.

An onlooker said: "David was in his element. It must have been freezing but he didn't seem to mind." Evil Lord Pomfrey tries to stop the St Trinian's schoolgirls from finding a stash of gold.

The movie, which also stars Girls Aloud's Sarah Harding, 27, and Rupert Everett, 50, as headmistress Miss Fritton, is due for release on 18 December. [News of the World via David Tennant ]
