Perhaps it's television, or immigration, that's created a fairly generic national accent, innit?
Managed to watch most today -admit to skiping some as I'd seen it before. See what you mean about the accents...not all though - Nick's Yorkshire dales WAS sexy but got ruined by adding is American...Neil had little trace of the scouser. Remembered most of what happened to him except the Finding God bit -must admit it surprised me... Next installment 2012? Shpuld be interesting -the change from the 50's to now is so huge -we forget how far technology and wealth has brought most people compared to then...
