Not that I watch Power Rangers regularly or anything, but I do find it amusing in the episodes I've seen recently that they've apparently run out of teenaged actors who can do a convincing American accent... Pretty much everyone on the show has a trace of Kiwi in them somewhere. Pretty soon they'll have to dub them over with American actors in the States, like they do with the bad guys.

The worst culprit is universally acknowledged to be one Anthony LaPaglia, star of Murder Two and Without A Trace, for his portrayal of Daphne Moon's oafish brother Simon in Frasier. Made all the worse by the fact he is actually Australian and would therefore perhaps have encountered a real British citizen at least once in his life - something that would not be apparent from his attempt at a British accent.

Got you beat - Dick Van Dyke's "Worst Cockney EVAR" award in "Mary Poppins". I understand there were small riots when the movie came out, over the bleeding ears.

And since this is a Doctor Who topic, let's not forget Nicola Bryant. Stupid, stupid John Nathan Turner...didn't he realize that no American mother in her right mind would ever name her kid "Perpugilliam"???

Um, we don't know how much time may have passed between the close of that scene and the start of the next. It's not like the episode was occurring in real time... You're surely not suggesting they should have extended the episode to show the Doctor play around with Lazlo's DNA??
