The British actress told DS: "I unfortunately only had one scene with David but he was lovely. I was very excited to meet him. I spent as much time off set going, 'And what was it like doing Doctor Who?!' I tried not to interview him."
Discussing Tennant's stardom, Garai said: "It's not something I could do. I see people who do it well and just really admire them. Someone like David Tennant is able to embrace people's love for Doctor Who in a totally positive way. I have huge admiration for people who are able to do that."
The 27-year-old added that she would love to appear in the cult BBC sci-fi show, but fears Tennant may not be able to influence casting now that he is leaving the role.
Glorious 39 opens in UK cinemas today and expands nationwide on November 27.
