Why would a celebrated actor like David Tennant take a stance that Graham Linehan calls “cowardly”? In this fiery Heretics interview, Linehan — writer of Father Ted, The IT Crowd, Black Books, and Brass Eye — explains why he believes Tennant and other high-profile celebrities are betraying free speech by backing what he sees as dangerous gender ideology.
Described by many as “the world’s most cancelled man,” Linehan has paid a heavy personal and professional price for his outspoken gender-critical views. Yet he refuses to stay silent. In this candid conversation, he calls out Tennant and others in the entertainment industry for what he sees as their virtue signalling conformity, and their failure to defend children, women, and truth.
In this unmissable interview, you’ll discover:
Why Linehan brands David Tennant a coward for supporting gender activism.
The chilling effect of celebrity influence on public debate.
How cancel culture destroyed Linehan’s career — and why he says it’s worth it.
Why he believes children are being harmed by medicalisation and social contagion.
The role of J.K. Rowling and other public figures in challenging cultural orthodoxy.
How comedy and free expression have been warped in an age of fear.
Andrew Gold presses Linehan on whether his uncompromising style helps or hinders his cause, and whether celebrities like Tennant genuinely believe in their positions — or simply go along with the tide. Together, they explore the intersection of fame, fear, and cultural battles, revealing how fragile the landscape of modern discourse has become.
For Linehan, this isn’t about grudges — it’s about courage. He argues that those with platforms have a responsibility to speak the truth, not hide behind slogans. His story is a powerful reminder of the cost of refusing to comply with prevailing narratives, and the importance of holding even beloved celebrities accountable.
