Is anyone else having a hard time understanding what the Doctor is saying sometimes? With the thick accent and fast speaking, I am having a real tough time understanding her when she is franticly speaking. I have lived in England before, so I thought I was used to the accents but her Yorkshire...
Yea, I thought she did a decent job of playing the Doctor. I just thought the stories were either too political, just bad, or not memorable. In fact I am having a hard time remembering much of them. All I have is just the memory (feeling) of being lectured to but I can't really remember the...
