==Billie Piper's accent==
I took out an uncalled for and completely unsourced bit of POV weasel wording regarding Piper's accent in Turn Left. The fact critics and fans noticed the lisp hsa been covered (wouldn't hurt to include a source, though the episode itself can be used as a source), but the statement that she sounded like a "chav" not only crosses the line potentially with whatever the Wikia equivalent of Wikipedia's BLP policy is, but it's an utterly meaningless term to anyone outside England.

::I haven't seen the actual item you're referring to, so I have no idea if this is actually relevant or not, but in the episode [[New Earth (TV story)]], [[Cassandra]] takes over Rose's body, and upon examining her body, clothes, and accent declares, "[My god], I'm a chav!"  The first two words may not be exact, but they convey the point.
::Like I said, relevant or not, I've no idea.  Take the information for whatever value it has.--[[User:TheOmnius|TheOmnius]] 01:05, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
