There was the fuss a little while back when Peter Capaldi first emerged from the TARDIS, apparently viewers complained that they had to resort to subtitles to figure out what he was saying. Then again, everyone had to do that anyway to compensate for the god-awful music drowning out all the lines.
I don't have much trouble myself, though I might struggle initially when confronted by a new Scot. Back in my Civil Service days, my line manager, Derek, was Scottish (probably still is), and communication was fine.
