Attention Australians!
So, enjoying the VII DVD, then?
Or have you returned it and written a strong letter of complaint to the BBC about racial stereotyping?

Eh? I thought he was from Manchester ;)

Enjoying the DVD very muchly.
By the way, that was the worst Australian accent imitation I've ever heard. Well, second-worst: it's just after that one-legged woman in the flashback on "Lost".

Did anyone ever consider that it was *meant* to be bad, hmm?
I mean, nowhere did we actually say that the guy calling the office was actually an Aussie...

"Just as all seemed lost, the office recieved a call from an Australian investor."
Have you seen the film, Seb?

Yes, but he's not an investor, either, is he? The narration just says what GNP *think* is happening. And if it said "The office received a call from some lunatic with a bad Australian accent, pretending to be an investor", it would kind of ruin the gag :-p

But he *did* have a hat with corks dangling off it.

Also, he's an Australian with Lancashire ancestry. He's bound to have a spazzy accent.
Also, he's played by me and I could be out acted by a Victoria Sponge.

I really am quite sorely tempted to create an IMDb entry for "Victoria Sponge" now...
