Perhaps the most chilling thing of all is that that's exactly what's happening to polar bears. There have been reports of them drowning -yes, you heard me- because they started swimming to their usual places only to found that it had melted, and it was too late to turn back.
That's why the vid is so amazing, Lee's "character" is suffering the same fate as polar bears (hence the title "Polar Bear Man").

It's unnerving at first, don't you think?? :)

Have you seen the Comic Con panel clip where Barry Sonnenfeld (EP & director of Pie-lette) asks her why she's speaking in that "fake British accent"?

Yes, I do remember seeing that! :D She does sound very different that Chuck, though. It sounds a tad deeper, whereas Chuck's is all gay and cheerful. :)

I've noticed that with a LOT of British actors. Jamie Bamber (BSG) and Hugh Laurie (House) are higher pitched in their natural accents.
