His accent...


I guess this will be a question more for us Brits. Did anyone else think that Charlie Hunnam's accent was pretty rough. He was verging on being Dick Van Dyke at some points. I have never heard him in an interview, so I haven't heard his normal accent but being from Newcastle I think he's had some training to make him sound like a cockney. Just an observation really.

Apologies, I've just seen a lot of other people have commented on the same thing.
Still doesn't detract from the fact that they could have found someone....anyone!

Personally I think they went with that accent because Americans could understand what he is saying. A large character like that would be unappealing to the masses if we cannot understand a word they say.

... That's just me though. I gave up on Shameless because I couldn't tell WTF they were saying.
