The stars played overanxious primary school teacher Mr. Peterson and his very pregnant wife in sequel to <i>Nativity!</i> which continued the misadventures of the staff and pupils of St. Bernadette's School. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br /><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Both David Tennant and Joanna Page are amongst the best actors in <st1:country-region w:st="on">Britain</st1:country-region>. I love working with great actors! They throw themselves into the story and work with genuine fearlessness and commitment,” said Debbie. “I feel so lucky to have worked with such great actors and improvisers in my films. I really feel like I work with the best actors in the country.”</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Filming took place on location in <st1:country-region w:st="on">Wales</st1:country-region> and Warwickshire in late 2011. With the characters lost in the Welsh countryside on their way to a Song For Christmas competition, there was opportunity for not only some action packed scenes but also plenty of laughs.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><o:p>"</o:p>Filming the Nativity films is always fun. With animals, children and Mr Poppy (Marc Wootton) things can often get out of control and have us all laughing our heads off on set. David and Joanna both had to keep straight faces whilst doing amazingly brave stunts for this movie," explains Debbie. "David fell in the river when white water rafting - by accident! He was thrown down a rapid river but agreed to let me keep it in the scene, as it was so funny!</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"Joanna had to get up in a helicopter without any door on it and fly thousands of feet up in the air to try and rescue David, who was stranded on a mountain! She was so brave - they both were - but all the time Mr Poppy was shouting funny things at them to try and make them laugh.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"They both did a fair bit of giggling - but that’s all good fun - it’s in the spirit of the Nativity movies to enjoy the filming process.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"I think the funniest day was when Joanna’s character was giving birth in the manger and David’s character had to deliver the baby twins.I can’t go into too much detail but we were all literally rolling in the hay with laughter!"</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Debbie also confirms that there will be a third film in the series."We are just about to start shooting <i>Nativity 3 'Dude, Where’s My Donkey?</i>'" she says."Bring on the children, animals and tinsel' - I’m good to go!"</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/movies/debbie-isitt-interview-367067.html"><span style="color: blue;">Read more at Female First</span></a></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Nativity 2: Danger In The Manger!</i> is released on DVD and Blu-ray in the UK on Monday 18th November and the discs will include deleted scenes, outtakes and featurettes. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://astore.amazon.co.uk/dtennant-21/detail/B00APK6KEK"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Click here to order the DVD</span></a></div><div class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://astore.amazon.co.uk/dtennant-21/detail/B00APKSVDS"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Click here to order the Blu-ray</span></a></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal"><o:p><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It is also due to be released on DVD in the USA and Australia</span></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><o:p><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><o:p>USA - released on Tuesday 19th November: </o:p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ENP2QXC?ie=UTF8&camp=213733&creative=393177&creativeASIN=B00ENP2QXC&linkCode=shr&tag=datethsi-20&qid=1377203629&sr=8-9&keywords=nativity+2"><span style="color: blue;">click here to pre-order</span></a></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Australia and New Zealand - released Wednesday 20th November: <a href="http://www.ezydvd.com.au/DVD/nativity-2-danger-in-the-manger/dp/6145824#secinfo"><span style="color: blue;">click here to pre-order</span></a></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">David Tennant and Joanna Page will next be seen together again in <i>Doctor Who: The Day Of The Doctor</i> which will be simulcast by TV broadcasters worldwide on Saturday 23rd November.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div>
