Tributes Pour In For Helen

Devastated Doctor Who star David Tennant will take time out from filming the hit sci-fi series this weekend to return home for his mother's funeral.

The popular actor has been left heartbroken after his mum Helen McDonald, of Dykebar, Paisley, lost her brave battle with cancer on Sunday.

David, his dad Sandy and other loved ones were with charity worker Helen at the end.

Although the Doctor Who star was back in Cardiff yesterday to shoot scenes for the BBC TV show, he will return to Scotland to pay his last respects to his mum at Renfrew North Parish Church on Saturday.

Courageous Helen had been receiving chemotherapy treatment for a year and a half.
