Quite the contrast with Paul McGann, who can cold-read dialogue from other Doctors in his Doctor's voice and make it sound at least decent. Sometimes even awesome. If BP was hoping to get voice work from this, I doubt it'll happen. There needs to be the essence of the character there in the actor's voice no matter how much time has passed, and given what you've said it sounds like it wasn't there in any way, shape, or form.

But if she doesn't sound like Rose, then even some of her biggest fans will notice and be confused at best. I wonder how many of BF's regulars skipped because they weren't impressed with the previews.

Oh, and I recall seeing a photo of the DW Magazine issue about the audios. (The cover didn't have DT posing with BP like he did with CT, IIRC.) I took exception to the article describing Rose as "universally love" or something like that. No one is universally loved. Not even David Tennant. Part of me wonders if some of the people who want to support 10/Rose are painfully aware of the failings of this series and are trying to distract the fans...

"In the Forest of the Night"? "Sleep No More"? Which Doctor and companion were in those, respectively?
