Happy 89th birthday to honorary cockney Dick Van Dyke. So there is still time for my planned Mary Poppins sequel,-Poppin' Mary. Lets hope so

“People in the UK love to rib me about my accent, I will never live it down,” he said. “They ask what part of England I was meant to be from and I say it was a little shire in the north where most of the people were from Ohio.”

Hah, Dick Van Dyke's "Cockney" accent makes Mary Poppins practically unwatchable.
Well, that explains why Mary Poppins did so poorly at the box office...
Think of how Michael Caine talks; that's cockney. Now think of how Dick's accent turned out :D
shareWorst Cockney accent ever. But I like Van Dyke and I like the movie.
shareI'm a Cockney - DVD ain't! 😂 Love him in this film, though.
