A rising star! Four-year-old girl with cerebral palsy gets embraced by David Tennant on TV set


This was the moment rising start Lilac gets embraced by her on-screen dad David Tennant on the set of the new TV drama "Deadwater Fell".

The clip filmed today (July 29) shows the moment former "Doctor Who" actor David Tennant tells Lilac how brilliant she’s been.

“You’ve been so brilliant! It’s been lovely to work with you,” Tennant can be heard telling Lilac in the video.

“Lilac is so excited to be able to show the world that disability will not slow her down and will not stop her fulfilling her dream, which is to see difference and disability represented in mainstream media, breeding tolerance and making the world a kinder place!” Lilacs mum told Newsflare.
