Tennant is a fine actor (though Dr Who doesn't appeal to me now I am not 6 and don't find it at all scary

) but he is far too lanky and fey to be Bilbo. I could see him as the elven king if we forget that he had gold hair in the book - but of course he wouldn't fit with being Orli's dad so it won't work for this set up) but he does have that dangerous quality ... can easily see him chucking Thorin in the clink.
