Rivals stars David Tennant and Alex Hassell have teamed up with British fashion house Burberry for an eye catching London themed Christmas advert on Wednesday.
The actors, who portray Lord Tony Baddingham (Tennant) and Rupert Campbell-Black (Hassell) in the new Disney series, cut dapper figures as they walked down the street chatting away.
Doctor Who star David, 53, turned heads in a smart £3,580 pin striped double breasted suit and tie which he wore with a navy jacket and a £420 red scarf by the designer.
Meanwhile Alex, 44, was seen wearing a similar suit under a £1,690 coat as he carried a number of perfectly wrapped presents in Burberry red paper stacked on top of each other.
The pair were seen walking laden with gifts before Alex leaned against a lamp post, while David hailed an iconic black London cab.

Since Rivals dropped on Disney+ last month, fans have said they are ‘obsessed’ with the show.

Joining David and Alex in the star-studded cast is Aidan Turner, Emily Atack, Danny Dyer, Katherine Parkinson, Oliver Chris and Claire Rushbrook.
The story is set in 1986 and follows the cut throat world of television, including the tense rivalry between Rupert Campbell-Black (Hassell) and Lord Tony Baddingham (Tennant).
During a series of parties and luncheons in Lord Baddingham’s country pile, steamy affairs and star-crossed yearnings are explored.
It comes after Alex has revealed he did in fact go fully nude for saucy scenes as lothario Campbell-Black in the eye-popping series.

The actor confessed that he bared his actual penis during the infamous tennis scene with busty co-star Emily Atack, 34, after shunning the option of using a prosthetic or digital simulation and rather than being nervous, cheekily admitted: ‘I am not without attributes.’
He told Times 2 magazine: ‘I don’t mind seeing my bum and willy on screen, I wouldn’t have done the job if I was particularly shy about my body.’
The character’s erotic endeavours sees him join the mile high club on Concorde just seconds into the first episode, before stripping off to make love on a fur rug.
He told Metro: ‘It was discussed how comfortable I was whether or not it would be me or prosthetics or digital. But in the end, we just went for it.’
Taking about the logistics of filming the raunchy scenes he said: ‘You pre-plan all this stuff and then on the day, you’re just trying not to giggle too much.’
