Disney's House Of Mouse Fan Animation
Devin Gray for Governor Ratcliffe
Ratcliffe is an Englishman from the late 1500s, based on the actual real-life Governor John Ratcliffe, who named Jamestown. This iteration of him is from Disney's Pocahontas, and in this particular story, focuses on the relationship between him and his manservant Wiggins (who only exists in the Disney telling of the story).
He has a generic English accent, and speaks with a low, airy-sounding tone. He has the tendency to deliver words very strangely sometimes, so feel free to do that if you want.
He is voiced by David Ogden Stiers, so have a look at some of his work if you want to nail this voice.
(Imitating a character in a Mexican showdown as part of a gag)
"Not on my watch, Partner."
(Say this with a calm, but angry tone, as Pete has just tried to shut down the club)
(Responding to Pete, who has just mocked Ratcliffe in a joke about making his men shooting him instead of doing the work himself)
"No, no, no. We're gonna handle this properly, like REAL men." (speak with a serious tone)
"I challenge you to a duel but not just ANY duel, one that must be fought with our bellies."
(A desperate Pete has offered Ratcliffe ownership of the entire lounge)
"The whole lounge you say? Hmm.." (Greedy, Ratcliffe is immediately interested)
"I must say, you've intrigued me, Mr. Pete"
(He decides to blindly sign the contract Pete has presented him)
"You got yourself a deal. Pleasure doing business with you. my good man."
