It is the UK, so a bit far for you to pop over, probably.

Mycroft’s popularity doesn’t surprise me at all. He is, after all, incredibly beautiful, clever and well-dressed. And beautiful. Did I mention that?

You're right though, she does have a funny accent!

I was wondering if you'd like to have coffee...
Hmm. I really don't know. Oh, I'm sorry, did I say 'know'? I meant 'care'. I don't really care.

Re: Louise and Vinette in Milton Keynes

It changes, seems 'sweet' sometimes & then seems very 'lower class/common' (and that's not the words I mean but I can't describe it any better)
Boy am I having trouble with words today!

Re: Louise and Vinette in Milton Keynes

Louise went to the Dame Alice Harpur independent girls' school in Northamptonshire. From there she went to Cambridge to study History. After this she went to the Lee Strasberrg Theatre and Film Istitute in Manhattan. What you have in her natural speaking voice is a mixture of her 'ironed-out' regional accent from the girl's school, mixed with a little of the effects of having been in the states.

It is generally true in the UK that many people with 'posh' accents modify these and most speak with soft or missing Ts in their everyday speech. Benedict does it too, as do the younger members of the Royal Family.

Standard English, as it was once spoken, has been modified by what is commonly known as Estuary English and there has also been a degree of influence from Australian programmes such as Neighbours upon the intonation used in words and sentences. Statements have a tendency to sound like questions.

What sounds 'common' to you is her dropping of the hard 'T' sound at the end of words and sometimes within words and the use of the 'glottal stop' such as when she says 'little' where the 'T' sound is replaced by something resembling a soft click in the mouth.

Of course, when acting, most (but not all) actors adapt their own natural voices when necessary e.g. David Tennant or Ewan McGregor (other nationalities are available).

Re: Louise and Vinette in Milton Keynes

Thanks for the background Davina!   Yes I can hear it and find it really so interesting.  the dropping of the T's etc.   accents can be so fascinating.  A nice interview.

Re: Louise and Vinette in Milton Keynes

Thanks Davina, I am hopeless when it comes to accents etc.
We have a standard one down here, lol. Orzstrayleen

Re: Louise and Vinette in Milton Keynes

Funnily enough years back having originated from near London I then studied in the midlands where i made new friends from there and 'up North' before another year's study back in London. When I first started teaching the kids all thought I was Australian!
