Is there anyway we can pass the hat around to get her elocution lessons? I have to bite my hand with rage watching Doctor Who because of her constant abuse of the english language. Do they not have diction classes in the UK?
Last time I checked there was no "k" in something. Also last time I check there was no "f" in think.
Please to be shedding light on the verbal crimes of miss billie piper.

shareUmmm its called cockney.
sharePart of it as others have said is that she was playing the role of a chav-ette... but also it seems that her lower jaw is very small compared to the rest of her face.
There were several shots in Dr Who where the camera was lower than her face and the upper jaw is a good inch or two further out than the lower one - that would describe where a lot of people feel that she's odd looking (and I happen to agree).
The lip injections since then didn't do anything to help... :D She needs a craniofacial surgeon to fix her jaw before she does anything else.
I was gonna say "Because she wants to.."
You are entitled to my opinion, whether you want it or not!!
She's got (had?) a bit of an overbite, yeah. It's not fun and it makes it harder to speak properly, but as other people said, she was pulling off a cockney accent, too.
I had a jaw deformation that kicked in at puberty. It took a $32,000 surgical procedure to correct, three days in recovery with a face so swollen I couldn't breathe, two months of a clamped jaw and liquid diet, a mouth so full of metal and rubber bands there was no way to brush your teeth (which was the WORST and left some discoloration), and it came at the price of a few nicked nerves. For example, I can't pucker properly anymore. People tell me they never would've known I'd had a jaw problem before if I hadn't told them, which is a sign the surgeon did a good job, but I have a skull full of metal now and while it's easier to talk in some ways, it's also harder due to the nerve damage. BTW, the only way we afforded that surgery was because the deformation came with a painful medical condition, too, so rather than consider it cosmetic, the insurance billed it as medical and covered the whole thing.
It's just a cosmetic condition. To each their own, I guess. She's still gorgeous in my book. Granted, I haven't seen the injections, but at this point in her life, it'd be too big a pain to get that major of correctional surgery. I was 16 when I had mine done, but she's 30 now and probably won't heal right up like I did.
