Accent question

Hi Valerie,
I was thinking of a grown up in the films somewhere but come to think
of it, the Twins do have a "Beatles" sound (I always think of Paul
McCartney when I think of Liverpool). I am thinking of that sound
when they say "loovly" and other vowel sounds. I wish some of our
British list members would get me back up to speed on this. It must
always be fun in the UK when casting a film, accents being so
different from place to place in such a small place. It seems like a
wonderful shorthand way of telling us about characters.
