Re: Why did Tucker have a southern accent?
Dude, you're from anywhere near Bungay and you say the northeners have a weird accent?!

Re: Why did Tucker have a southern accent?
Ironically, I am a couple of counties away from Bungay. They are from inbred Norfolk

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend. It's difficult for us Yanks, you know - over here, each town only has one name.

Re: Why did Tucker have a southern accent?
What I meant is Bungay is in the county of Norfolk, which is several counties away from Essex where I was born, which is even further still away from Hampshire where I am.

Re: Why did Tucker have a southern accent?
OK. Still, I the last time I sent a package to soemone in England, I had to put three different place names on the address. The clerk at the post office asked me which one was the city. I said, "Any and all, I guess."

Re: Why did Tucker have a southern accent?
My address is my road, my neighbourhood, my town, my county, then finally my post code. I admit, it is somewhat convaluted.

Re: Why did Tucker have a southern accent?
Yeah, we're short one of those steps. Just street address, city, and state.

Re: Why did Tucker have a southern accent?
Think that's bad? We go:
House number
Street name
Neighbourhood
Region of the city
City
County
And if you want to hear crazy accents, just come to Ireland. Honestly, each town has its own accent. Hell, there are about half a dozen different accents per city. You can fairly accurately pinpoint which part of Dublin City someone's from just by listening to them talk.

New York City is like that - each borough has a distinctive accent. New Jersey natives can also usually tell what part of the state another Jersey-ite is from.

Re: Why did Tucker have a southern accent?
Yep. I'll use my old postal code for security reasons (lol, i feel like starfleet security).
PO13 9RR
PO is for the city or local borough. the number is which subdivision of that city or local borough. The next 3 are a way of pinpointing exactly which set of houses within that subdivision it is.

Re: Why did Tucker have a southern accent?
They gave Tucker a "southern" accent, and I agree with Tsu that its more KY or TN, because he was supposed to be a Cooter/Scotty hybrid. The guy with the funny accent who gets things done. The only problem is that they made him dumber than a box of rocks.
