I love Eccleston's accent. There was another dude with it, though. That guy who played Riley in 42. Lovely accent.

But nothing is better than DT's. I'd die to hear him say my name. Although, I've heard him say my surname...really, I have.


You like Mancunian then.

And I've heard David say my first name! There's a character in Double Income No Kids Yet (radio sitcom, starring David as Daniel) who's called Katie. Different spelling to mine (at least judging by the description onscreen), but still same pronunciation! Mind you, I'm used to hearing Scots saying my name. My ex-fiance was Scottish, and I have Scottish relatives.


Oh, that's cool! Well, I've never heard him say Rachel before. But someday he will... *WISHES HARD*

Oooh...well, Katie is close to Katherine... So technically all I have to do is go find that radio broadcast or something. *youtubes*


Try BBC7. The Listen Again service will give you last week's episode. Look on Wednesday's list. You will need Real Player. www. .co.uk/bbc7

And officially, we have the same name if your real name's Katherine! Mine's just spelt differently. Mine's Kathryn.

Yay! ^^ I probably won't go to all that trouble..not enough time.. =/

Oh, and I'm gonna be able to listen to Hugh Laurie's normal accent in a few days when Inside the Actors Studio shows his interview. *drools*
He sings/plays piano amazingly well. And it'll show clips from Blackadder and A Bit of Fry and Laurie!!! YAY!
Perhaps it'll help my DT-withdrawal... hmm..I'm depending on the new season of House to help me out.... but anyways!

Scottish.......*grin*

I love Scottish, Irish, Welsh, Geordie, Scouse and Australian accents. All my crushes are either Scottish or Irish (David Tennant, James McKenzie, Sean Biggerstaff, John Barrowman [even though he's got an American accent, I've heard him speaking with a Scottish one as well], Ed Byrne).

Mind you, Yorkshire's a good one for me, but I would say that, because that's my natural accent! Although if I'm speaking different languages, I have the right accent. Here's the list..

German arrow Berlin
Russian arrow Moscow
Japanese arrow Nagoya
Turkish arrow Istanbul
Spanish arrow Madrid

I'm not a fan of the accents associated with the spanish language, I live in America and there are TOO many spanish speaking people where I live.
And I hate where I live because I moved here 8 years ago and I'm just now developing a noticible southern accent. *gags*


stare So what's wrong with The South?
I moved here from Indiana back in '86. I love North Carolina.

I have too many reasons to pin them down with words, some things about the south are ok, but to me it's culturally restricting.

I nearly had a heart-attack when he said my name. He said it with such luuuv, and that wonderful grin! -dies- <333

Well.. I like Scottish, British (in general), and ... Russian. XD

My family's Russian (but we live in Texas, go figure) so I like the accent, though I myself don't speak with any sort of an accent. I just talk at about 90 mph- confuses the heck out of my Biology teacher.

Scottish, well ain't it obvious considering that this is a DW guild.

British, just like the sound of the dialect much better than the flat Midwestern Stereotypical American Accent that is commonly heard in the US. (Yes, a midwestern accent is base of American accents- it was popularized in the early to mid 1900's with the advent of news radio. Random factoid for the day... o___O)

Russian accents are so sexy. Bizarrely Scottish actors make good Russians.

I love a gentle Yorkshire accent too because it reminds me of home.

Yay, another Yorkshire person! Where do you live if you've moved away from the county of the White Rose?
PostPosted: Wed Nov 07, 2007 6:48 am


I was born in Hebden Bridge near Halifax. But we moved when I was 8 up to Scotland. cry I'm now in Manchester - Salford to be precise.

You brave soul! Mind you, it can't be ALL bad there, that's Chris Eccleston's hometown.

Scotland's great! I've got family up there.

I'm from Doncaster, but I think I've been to Hebden Bridge a few times.

Are you living in a small town, possibly in the Deep South? Tiny towns there can be quite a throw-back to someone who was brought up in a large, metropolitan area. I know this to be true as I have relatives living in tiny towns in both Mississippi and Alabama. Life there is definitely different and takes some adjusting.

I've lived in the South all my life, mostly in places near very large cities. The bigger Southern cities have a great deal of multi-cultural offerings. I'm sorry that wherever you are living is leaving you with this negative perspective. sad

I don't actually like may accents... DT's IC accent's okay I guess...

I HATE Canadian accents when it's in French. They say environment very weird. (The French accent)

I hate dialects that aren't east-middlands-ish. Watching that Oliver Twist thing I was like 'what?' when that guy started talking weird.

Mm, I'm really starting to dislike the Australian accent now, which isn't so great considering I'm stuck here for a while. Just what we do to our vowles... sounds so informal and disgusting. Mind you, it isn't really that strong in a lot of people, but noticible enough, expecially if you're from a different country.

So yeah I guess one of my lifetime goals is to shake the Aussie accent and get a Scottish one!!
German kind of interests me- not the accent as such, but the language, it just sounds so crazy. I haven't really heard that much Russian or a proper Russian accent to make a decision there.

French I quite like actually... and I kind of dislike the American accent- ... the stronger ones just kind of get on my nerves like the Australian one does.

But still, Irish and Scottish for me. I can't remember what Welsh sounds like though...

... How long does it take to start to pick up an accent from somewhere else? or shake your old one entirely?
