David Tennant proved himself the ultimate trans ally once again after rejoicing at the news that his trans-themed TARDIS badge led to thousands of pounds being raised for an LGBTQ+ charity. The Doctor Who star has long been a vocal supporter of trans rights, from wearing iconic pro-trans t-shirts to standing up for the fight for LGBTQ+ rights. In his latest show of solidarity, the 52-year-old actor was spotted wearing a TARDIS pin with the trans flag colors while appearing on The Last Leg and The One Show. He was promoting his upcoming return as the Doctor for the trio of specials celebrating Doctor Who's 60th anniversary. After eagle-eyed fans spotted the progressive badge, they flocked to social media to praise Tennant and to find out where they could also get hold of the Tardis pin. Soon enough the creator of the badge, Dr. Jamie Gallagher, announced on social media that all proceeds from the badge would be donated to LGBTQ+ homeless charity Albert Kennedy Trust (AKT), totaling a whopping £18,000 (and counting). His decision to wear a trans TARDIS badge comes after he caused a stir for donning a “Leave trans kids alone you absolute freaks” top, which led to outrage and attacks from anti-trans activists such as Graham Linehan and Posie Parker.
