The actor insisted that there are "no plans" for him to appear in Doctor Who "at the moment", but said that he would love to play the Tenth Doctor again.
"People keep telling me that they've read online that I'm coming back - but believe me, if that happens I'll be the first to tell everyone. I'll be shouting about it very loudly," Tennant told TotalFilm.

Tennant explained that he looks back fondly on the four years he spent working on Doctor Who, noting: "I'm very proud of the show and I'm fully aware it casts a long shadow professionally, but I'm quite happy about that. It's a shadow wearing a very cool, long coat."
The star passed on the role of The Doctor to Matt Smith, who made a surprise appearance in a theatre production based on Doctor Who earlier this month.
Doctor Who will return to BBC One and BBC America later in 2011.
Tennant will next star alongside Colin Farrell in the horror remake Fright Night, which opens on August 19 in the US and on September 2 in the UK.
