| As to the re-casting...well, yes it will seem strange. But then it's not so different to (for example) the Dalek movies re-casting Peter Cushing as the Doctor. |
Very very different, Cushing could act |
I'm not that familiar with the 'new' Avon's work, so I can't really comment on that yet! If it were up to me to cast a new voice for Avon, I'd probably opt for someone like Don Warrington who has a wonderful, smooth but sinister quality to his voice.
Funnily enough, its been rumoured that in the 60's there were tentative plans for a radio series featuring the Cushing Doctor.

I think that Paul Darrow's voice had a lot to do with Avon's popularity. I don't think PD is the greatest actor in the world, but he had a way of delivering his lines that was perfect for the character. In fact I think the best acting he's done outside of B7 was in the Big Finish audio drama 'The Next Life'.
For Avon to work, the voice has to be right.

These are radio and if it gets to the screen, either tv or movie, they may have another bunch of actors playing the roles anyway. So it really does not matter much what they look like at this stage, and remember audio acting is a very different animal to when the actor can been seen and heard.  |

Why's everyone so worked up about actors being replaced? it's not like their going to outlaw any mention of the old series or the actors. And if you don't like it, then you don't have to listen to it.
I'm sorry, but I have problems with people who moan, like in the Doctor Who community - Complain when it's off air that it should be brought back, then complain that its rubbish when it is brought back. |
its not that they are going to be replace we all knew that new actors would be needed but its who they are being replace with I mean a coloured !!!!
somones out of their mind and if memery serves and I don't mean this in any way racist but he has a rather coloured voice if you get my drift. |
I was called an ignorant racist on 'Horizon' forum for saying the same thing about the voice..
was told Salmon has a 'Posh' voice when I suggested his voice sounded er blackish 
Got a nice letter from Diane explaining the situation and why some of MY posts were pulled...
I don't blame Diane at all she has to control her forum and site.
It is her responsibility to control a volatile situation once again boiling
over as it has in the past. Diane is just doing her job...
Others complained to Diane about my posts.
Part of my one post was a total wind up and I said that if the person needed a sense of
humour to try ebay because they may have a sense of humour 'Buy it now' sale...they sell everything!
HONESTLY  I WAS JUST KIDDING |
