A clip of the rejected pilot has slipped onto the internet: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4cqRsvu9t0Oh dear. I can't be the only one having brain explosions at Tennant licking his fingers and acting all Doctorish while these sounds are coming out of his mouth. This... this... this just does not compute. |

I saw that. I didn't think the accent was _that_ bad, but I suspect that might be down to me being a non-USAian. I am still kind of glad for Tennant, in a strange way, that that show didn't get picked up, though. As rewarding as it might have turned out to be for him in terms of fame/fortune, I think he's too good to be appearing in something that seemed like a half-baked knockoff version of House or something (most of the current crop of actors appearing in those sorts of shows are, imho).

Ack, that accent. Interesting sounding, but not at all convincing. If that clip is any indication of the show's quality, I'm really not surprised that this didn't get picked up. Still disappointed that he had to drop out of Burke and Hare for this.

Aw, I'd forgotten about Burke and Hare...well, that's a tragedy. Really. I would have loved to see Tennant in something like that. I reckon he can play creepy lowlives with the best of them (I mean that as a compliment! ;D).
