YIKES; I'm so glad it is an all-British series. It makes it so much 
more believable.
I love Lord of the Rings, but the guy that plays Samwise had a lame 
british accent (sorry! I know he's Patty Duke Astin's son!) Elijah did 
a decent job of it with Frodo. And Viggo Mortenson played a great 
Aragorn.  But it's so iffy when you 'fake it' like that. I forget in 
what interview, but someone asked Dan Rad if his accent was real. LOL! 
Thank goodness it is; I love all those actors. And thank goodness Dan's 
parents insisted on staying in London and not moving to Hollywood. I 
cringe to think what would've happened to those kids here, in the 'wild 
west'. :-)
