Also sidenote, maybe because I watch so much BBC and overall UK based shows the accents aren’t hard for me, but i try and tell my friend to watch the show and they say the accents are too thick and can’t understand them so they can’t watch it? Does anyone else run into this problem? I thought it’s easy to understand?
maybe just lack of exposure to lower-class and/or regional uk accents (i say this as someone who comes from a crappy town near birmingham, lol). we just don't tend to export that kinda thing as much. especially something set in the ~gritty 20th century working classes, the diction isn't gonna be as clear as you'd hear in doctor who or downton for example
I'm not from the UK but I agree with the other user who replied to you. I like hearing the accents on this show, but they can be difficult to understand at times. I don't watch British programs that much, but the popular ones here in the US tend to revolve around royals, aristocrats, posh/wealthy people, etc. so maybe audiences are more used to Queen's English (if that's the right term lol)
I binged the first three seasons this summer so it's good to finally be able to talk about it lol. I know most people disliked s3 but it gave me crazy Tatiana, who I thought was played perfectly by a fewllow Dutchie. That brings me to the fact that I think Tatiana has been the only one thus far to always be one step ahead of Tommy and truly grasp his character. Mainly because she's a crazy motherfucker herself and does what she has to do to survive. Also, she has zero romantic feelings for him, which was a nice change.
Which brings me to that one shot in the trailer of Tommy and who I presume is Charlie Murphy (Iseult in The Last Kingdom, fucking loved her in that) because the nose kind of gives it away. Kinda disappointing to see another woman going to jump on Tommy's dick, just like Grace and May (not gonna include Tatiana in that 'cause she was never interested in more than his services and his dick). Like, Tommy is not a catch. Love yourself a little goddamn. He doesn't need a new woman each new season.
Yeah, agreed. In season 1 I was all aboard the “get it, Grace!!!” train (no pun intended) and then it was downhill from there. I loved May’s actress and May’s character and maybe they’ll give her some real growth this season? Hahahaha jk look at how terrible season 3 was, who am I kidding? I rewatched 1 and 2 and couldn’t watch beyond the first episode of 3. Tatiana did nothing for me.
I need so much from this season since the last one was such a mess.
a) As beautiful and wonderful and amazing and UGHHHH as Cillian is, I wouldn’t have minded THAT much if Tommy died and this season was the family recovering from that. Since that ain’t happening (which of course in reality I’m happy about), Arthur needs to die. His number was up a long time ago.
b) Undo the complete disaster of how Polly was written last season. Of how everyone was written last season.
c) Speaking of women who deserve better, please for the love of God let May have found someone else. Like, I really need for this to be the case since they ruined Polly, ruined Grace even more and then stuck us with a new woman who is the stereotypical embodiment of a shrew. I
g) Tom Hardy talks in a clear and concise voice we can actually understand. If you can do it in Dunkirk, you can do it anywhere, Tom!!! We believe in you!!!
Tom and his weird voices just kill me. It's like he's incapable of not putting on a stupid voice. It comes thisclose to ruining the characters he plays.
mte the first time i saw him on peaky blinders it was like he was playing a ridic over the top character in a play with all of the affectations + the voice, nothing like the other characters in the show at the time.
