#But then Tozer in real life was a good honest West Country boy

[saints-who-never-existed]

I want to think a bit more about this but right now I just want to say that I'm blown away and delighted by all the thoughtful replies this has gotten already! :)

I hope it didn't come across as condescending in any way - lord knows there have been plenty of times I myself have struggled to parse the funky wee accents and unique dialects of my own countrymen...

And I also hope I haven't given the impression that some mystical new level of understanding is unlocked when one happens to know one's Liverpudlians from one's Mancunians because that's certainly not the case.

Really, I just like thinking about language and locality and all the possible influences that could have on character - nature vs. nurture and that sort of thing. :)

I've been thinking about Terror character/actor accents and origins again today and I'd love to hear some non-British/otherwise outside perspectives on the subject at some point - might even attempt to make a poll about it.

I'm just curious!

Do you find the different accents in the show difficult to understand at any point? Are some more challenging than others? Do you think having more context on different character accents and origins would change anything about your understanding/interpretations of the show and the relationships within it?
