oh yeah, all right, take it easy baby, make it last all night, she was an AMERICAN GIRL!

I mentioned this in a locked post earlier, but, people! David Tennant narrates the Doctor Who audiobook "Pest Control," which was just released this month, and in it he does an American accent.

And while he's no Damian Lewis (yet!) or Hugh Laurie (yet!) he does an adorable, yeoman's job and I figured I'd share. Here's a clip from the audiobook, where General Brudge (sp?) is the big American general somewhat intimidated by Sergeant Lenova (sp?) the foxy, powerhouse British soldier. I left the whole chunk in (it's about 3 minutes long all told) so you can hear the glorious sweeping from Scottish narration to that nasal, grumbly American accent Brits like to do...

!!! The amount of love I have for this is UNEXPRESSABLE. I love his other audiobooks, too - I mean, the fact that he narrates in his Scottish accent and does the Doctor's voice in the Doctor's London-ish accent wins my love all by itself. But this! My goodness.
