   Looking forward to seeing the #DrWho new series premiere at #Sawtell Cinema tomorrow night, now that all the fuss has died down about casting the first Doctor from Yorkshire. It's the 21st century for heavens sake! And anyway, she's an alien; Gallifrey probably has _two_ Yorkshires.

         @theru That would have worked fine at the box office. Americans can't distinguish between British accents. They think they're all classy. Play them some Noel Coward followed by some Ian Dury and they'll believe it was the same bloke. Tell them John Gielgud and Michael Caine went to the same school, and they won't raise an eyebrow.
