leave the poor guide alone, at least he DOES speak another language besides his own...as for his accent, it´s not something that most ppl can help, and don´t get me started on how many English speakers butcher the pronounciation of Italian or French words...

[Milkpaw]

hey guys, before you make fun of the guide for his accent, stop and remember; david tennant has an accent too!

@101Tonia101 then you have one hot Latin teacher....

[101Tonia101]

Hell, with those glasses David looks EXACTLY like my Latin teacher...

[Koroistro]

i'm italian too and my accent is waaay worse even becouse i don't know spelling some words propely you know we speak as we read texts so there's many difference between being able to write english and being able to speak it , i'm shy too so it's even harder for me =D , watching DW in english with dubtitles helped me rly much anyway.

OH MY GOSH?!?!? David Tennant was at Pompeii? I've been to Pompeii!! WHY did I not know this sooner?

[DaniJpGrNl]

David, you brilliant-sexy-scottish-defend­er-of-slaves-with-amazing-hair man! You just killed me with that unbuttoned shirt and glasses combination.

@hikarufly It's awesome that you and Nanami21 recognize the difference between fluency and accuracy! I'm an ESL teacher, and I meet so many people (locals and students) who believe that a person has to have a 100% native-like accent in order to be "truly fluent". Obtaining a native-like accent is virtually impossible if you start learning a second language after age 13 or so.

[hikarufly]

@Nanami21 you are right! I am italian and this guy is very funny for someone like me that learnd english since childhood, or someone that speaks english as its own language. I can tell you that many professionals in italy have learnd english when they were already grown up, so the accent is extremely strong, but they don't say wrong words.

@8cocoriko8 già xD

David you are a great man and a great actor! :D

[TheBellypop]

i likew how he was so concerned about the slaves :)

[mythghost]

@NikoKun i miss him too but like he said if he decided to stay he never would have left and we'd have him rolling out of the tardis in a wheel chair. he went out with a bang though and took the tardis console with him.
