I have an audition for a production of the Christmas Carol where I would play Bob Cratchit.

And I think it's best that I give my friend Paige a call.

And if you could believe it, it's today again.

And the director has specified they want cock me.

We're skipping over a step into And company were not starting with standard British because company is really working class Londoners, okay.

And so it's a different socioeconomic accent.

If you want to call it that, let me ask you, do you have any history with British English?

What I can say is this I have played the role of Bob Cratchit at the ripe age of 16.

Married men was So rumor, has I You know, I have experience with this accent, but I can't imagine It was very well put.

And how did little 10 guys as good as gold and better Somehow he gets thoughtful sitting by himself so much and he thinks the strangest things you ever heard.

He told me coming home that he hoped that people saw him in the church because he was equipo.

And it might be pleasant to them to remember upon Christmas Day who made lame beggars walk and blind men see good.

It's actually you've got a few sounds in there that are already correct.

A few is better than you've got a lot that needs to be Oh, okay.

So here we have a scene in a Christmas Carol.

There knows the worst loss of a few things.

I can honestly barely even understand what they're saying.

Justice actor should to be clear for the job that there going to do.

If they wanted a perm after he was dead, why wasn't he amiable in his lab time?

Okay, so this is a clip from Mary Poppins.

But I want you to hear why, Okay, He's taken a lot of guts with this, that there is what you might call it.

They're that they're that they're that put it hard, R automatically that's sounding American when there's hardly no day.

And then he took it out in the 2nd 1 Yes, there's hardly Nordling.

We will drop pages which were completely onto on the rooftops of London.

So rooftops, rooftops, tops is a vow, will talk about as well.

He opened it up, placed it in the back of the mouth, and that's very American.

He's hitting a lot of the sounds that are correct for cock knee.

And then all of a sudden there's a word that pops out.

So this is legend with Tom Hardy playing two roles, and he's using an authentic Hockney accent.

It takes a while that does to settle, Charlie Richardson said.

With the not the granny out of you Ridge.

This is the epitome of really good accent work.

Now, if you really listen to Tom Hardy, you'll hear that he's not using his teas.

Go lame and it's a little bit and things like that.

Did he ask you to listen when you see him next?

You tell him for May Yet that I say Flat Charlie Right Vac is brother.

Yeah, so you can a lot of wonderful F bombs, but he's not finishing words at times.

What one blow we don't about cross uses global sounds is another problem.

It's a big part of it, so I have a question for you.

Yes, a wise woman once told me when learning an accent, it's best to pick one person.

Okay, if you're working with someone who's saying yes, but we've got to make it more clear we could probably go toward Michael Caine.

Okay, is he has cocked me, but you don't miss a word.

You squeezed them, you hammered them to the point of desperation.

And in their desperation, they turned to a man they didn't fully understand.

There's still a little bit of keeping the mouth closed.
