Tennant shared with the Radio Times, "You're asking people to pay a lot of money to potentially have someone coughing into their packet of boiled sweets and infecting them."

He continued to say, "I don't know what the answer is yet. It's urgent, because the performing arts in this country don't exist with huge profit margins."

He added that some theatres were "teetering" close to closure. "We'll need Government intervention until theatres can safely reopen, and audiences are happy to go back."
