It was sweat - from exercise. I've set him exercising again.
Don't watch Emerdale, but it was Yorkshire TV, so they probably are... _________________ Rob

A little late, but I did have to go home and sleep *sometime*.

Actually, you'd need to wander uptown a little to find those nice men... still dangerous men, but handsome and clean... Unless you'd like to hit up a wannabe doctor/lawyer from Tulane U, very clean, and in need of debauching
The French Quarter is a *very* scary place sometimes, but you do hear the whole mix of locals hamming it up and tourists f***ing it up. Good place to pick pockets according to my old college roomie. |

Thank you for the tip SilverMoonLady. I will wander uptown and find myself a nice doctor or lawyer, while Mora can stay in the French Quarter with her whiskey and scary looking toothless bum with a bag over his head.  _________________ abandon thought, and let the dream descend... |

Sean Bean seems to have a sort of generic upper-class Irish accent. It's probably how they teach them to talk in Drama school.

Irish?? Well, when you hear him in interviews his broad Yorkshire comes right through loud and clear, at least to this Yank (and really Yankee; 13 generations North-Easterner). _________________ NB Duchess of WHY TF Cant'chu Punctuate, First Duchess of F*&(ing &*ll yur comma placement sux!

Hmm, you're right. I'm thinking he played an IRA guy in a movie at some point, which is probably what I was thinking of.

Sean Bean sounds 100% Sheffield in 99% of every movie he is in. I quite like him and his accent. But then, im not fussy. _________________ I am no longer posting on the Forums. If you need me, I am lurking in the archives, reading and reviewing. You can also catch me at Demented Indigo! |

All I know of Yorkshire accents is what I've seen on reruns of All Creatures Great and Small.

Aha. Pay the game of Find The Accent! It's simple. Sean Bean hads a fairly passable accent throughout FOTR. And then this happens:
"Take the west road to MY CITY!" Note how the inflection changes of my city. And that is Sean Bean's accent. Apparently that's the only bit that non-Brits pick up - the rest you need to know the accent for.
Sorry. That was a random post, wasn't it?
