Inserting images to Teaspoon isn't as easy as offering a link (to, eg, Photobucket) so good luck...
Oh, rats, I was afraid of that. Well, maybe I'll just stick in a link to the picture instead.
I consider it sheer laziness on the part of RTD to write both Casanova and Ten with the same accent.
I don't think it was laziness, was it? My understanding is that RTD really thought that it was preferable for the Tenth Doctor to not have a Scottish accent. Something to do with following on from Eccleston's Northern accent, and not wanting to "do a tour of the regions" (not that I understand why that would be a problem, though). It's too bad, because I adore David's real accent, and I really wish he would get to use it more often in his acting! I especially wish he'd been able to use it for "Rex is Not Your Laywer" -- did you see the clip from the pilot that got posted around not long ago? I love David's acting, but his American accent was truly horrendous. Where's Nicola Bryant when you need her?
