That new 'British' girl

Who is this new girl with the really awful fake accent? Can CBS not afford a real actor/actress from the UK or something? Her accent makes me want to stop watching CSI, it's that bad/annoying/damn offensive! 0  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?

She was only on for one episode and if TPTB liked her maybe a recuring role. She seemed to interact with Nick very nicely. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

"Well if her accent was her actual accent and not a put on one; yes a British person can fake a British accent, then maybe I wouldn't be so annoyed. I've seen this in other programs where the actress is definitely not British and it's horrible. Just get someone from the Uk for god's sake!

And fyi I posted this under a bit about characters people don't like etc so I do have the right to say this, besides even if it wasn't I can give my opinion. That is not her accent."
i didn't think she was all that bad, besides, she's only signed on for one episode for the whole season. its really not that worth arguing about :)

I thought she was awful, especially since I hate the stereotypical 'British' accent, what happened to Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the tons of different accents in each country, it's always the same one :| it's always CBS too.

One episode? Phew :o I didn't know how long she was going to be there for xD

(I thought I wrote here, but it musn't have posted...)
First of all, her accent is not fake. She is from London. She has a British accent which she hides well in some of her works, but just didn't here.
Yes you can post whatever you want about characters if you don't like them, but you are being offensive to the people who do like the character by saying what you did.
So get your facts straight please first.
Do you find this valuable?

(You did, I saw it but it disappeared ^^;)

Sorry to break it to you, but that's not her accent, nor is it a Londoner accent. Trust me on this. I'm from 'Britain' myself. I would know it if I heard and, and I didn't hear it. I have my facts straight, I know she's from the UK but that is -not- her accent.

You're being offensive to those who know what a 'British' accent is (Fyi, there are literally hundreds of accents in the UK, how can there only be one used accent by CBS?)
