David Tennant’s inspiring “It’s all gonna be okay” speech

For those of you not familiar with British TV, The Last Leg is the UK’s analogue to the US TV series Last Week Tonight; it’s a TV show in which the events of the week are summarized in humorous ways. The most recent episode of The Last Leg ended with this short inspirational speech by David Tennant, whom you may know as the 10th incarnation of The Doctor from Doctor Who. It’s under a minute long, but it’s well worth watching.

Here’s a transcript of his speech:

It’s all gonna be okay. Trust me, I’m a doctor.

But — it’s up to us to make it okay.

It’s time to be positively rebellious and rebelliously positive. As long as we stand up for what we believe in, don’t give in to anger or violence, look out for the little guy, keep an eye on the big guys, refuse to keep our mouths shut, and just generally try not to be dicks, everything little thing is gonna be all right.
