This may be slightly perverted but in Big Bang when the pandorica flies up into the tardis, I always thought Matt sounds a but, grunty and moany if you know what I mean.
Well, he's supposed to be feeling a bit ill and in pain at that point.
On the other hand, he could be enjoying the experience......:D
Watching the movie. Straight in as one my favourite poorly delivered lines of all time, the mortuary man when eight appears: "Oh my gawd!" (shakes head)"Gawd NO!"(rolls eyes and faints).
I've got to say the majority of Freema Ageyman's delivery was woeful, particularly in her series 4 guest spots.
The constant need to have her say "It CAN'T be" made me cringe. She seemed to think that delivering half of her sentences with a kind of half cry or gasp or slow emotional blink gave her performance some depth. It didn't, it was very amateur.
But apart from her I generally like most of the actors on DW, it's usually the line itself that's badly written and it would take a miracle to make it sound convincing.
Alex Kingston is a victim of this, she's a fantastic actress but things like "There's always a way out" (Day of the Moon), forcing the nickname "Sweetie" into every other sentence and most of her dialogue in Let's Kill Hitler should never have made it to a final draft.
But for me, the very worst example of this is in Journey's End, when she does that awful "So I could come back....Shu-uuup!" thing with Ten, with a huge sickly grin on her face. Not only does it trivialise a dramatic situation, it also trivialises Ten, as he engages with the flirting and grins back like a daft schoolboy.
I agree with this. One of the main reasons I didn't like the "romance" between the 10th Doctor and Rose is because I felt it did frequently diminish the Doctor's character and turn him into a teenage boy with a crush rather than being the 900+ year old alien Time Lord he's supposed to be. Not to mention, too, that he ends up being rude and inconsiderate to Martha on more than one occasion because of it. In fact, it's too bad Martha didn't tell him off big time at least once instead of just putting up with it.
Can someone remind me which episode Martha's "bringing you back to Earth" quote is from please? I used to have a good memory but now ... erm ... what was I saying? Thanks.

There's no point being a grown up 900+ year old Alien if you can't be a teenage boy with a crush sometimes....

It took me a minute to recover from laughing.

Matt completely delivers it wrong in my opinion.
