They must think we will be more likely to buy from a fellow 'comfort zone' member, high pressure sales talk and scrougers. I will bet my false teeth Sean Bean get's paid handsomly for his feeble efforts. That Geordie accent is diabolical it's phoney, a true Geordie would not be undrstood on any other network other than Newcastle and surrounding areas. How are you everything ok grego?
