Anyone else noticed that the bad guys in most Disney films
tend to have English accents? Just an observation, we don't
take this personally.
BTW loads of English people I know have tales of going to
America and being asked if they are Australian, because we
don't sound like the English people you guys get on TV and
in films.
Toodle pip, must pop off to meet the Queen.
