Quotes:
From "Battlestar Galactica: Dirty Hands (#3.16)" (2007)
Dr. Gaius Baltar: I don't sound like I'm from Aerilon?
Chief Galen Tyrol: No.
Dr. Gaius Baltar: Well you know I take that as a particular compliment. I don't know about you, but I've always found the Aerilon dialect to be particularly hard on the ears.
[Baltar begins speaking with an Aerilon accent]
Dr. Gaius Baltar: Something about the consonants that scrape the back of the throat. Course I should know an awful lot about my native tongue, I spent hours on it in trying to overcome it.

[Baltar speaks with his usual accent]
Dr. Gaius Baltar: Maybe I don't know, Caprica... Caprica... oh to be Caprican, the seat of politics, culture, art, science, learning. And what was Aerilon, just a drab ugly rock condemned to be the food basket for the twelve worlds, and that's how we were treated, like servants, like laborers, like working-class. You know you would have fitted right in there Chief, lots of men who like to work with their hands, and uh, grab a pint down at the pub and...
[Baltar again speaks with his Aerilon accent]
Dr. Gaius Baltar: ...finish off the evenin' with a good old-fashioned fight.
[Baltar returns to speaking as he normally does]
