#favorite thing about this post#is the implication that david tennant doesnt really have that accent cjvjfjdjd

he doesn’t, he’s Scottish and was putting on an English accent for the role

would now be a bad time to mention his birth name is David McDonald

There was another actor named David McDonald and it was against union rules to have two so he had to change it.

OP, you should make it clear that this budget is not for the Estuary accent that David affected throughout the series, as he already had that skill himself. This budget is obviously for that one episode with Queen Victoria where he, a Scottish person with a Scottish accent playing an English person with an Estuary accent, pretended to have a bad Scottish accent. That was #acting and it was well worth the financial support. My real concerns with this budget are that it appears to be in dollars, and that it implies that British film students have cars. This is unrealistic and unreasonable

Other than the above mentioned issues with cars and currency type I’d say that this is a pretty spectacular budget breakdown. Carry on.
