Why does he even bother? Awful, simply AWFUL.

Alright buddy, calm down.

Having an opinion can save your life. Just ask Marvin.

Copernius called and you are NOT the center of the universe, Accent Police.

Apart from the Northmen who all have a Yorkshire or Lancashire accent, the accents in game of thrones are all Middle English. I think he does a good job. It's not perfect but awful? I'm English and it doesn't stand out.

I second what shootmovie said, I think he does very well with his accent, a terrific accent, and as a Yorkshire man myself, I completely appreciate hearing the Northeners speak haha.

Southern English technically. Quite a few of them are from my neck of the woods

Because he gets paid a f'ckton of money to, i guess.

Last time I checked, Game of Thrones isn't set in England, so what does it matter if it isn't 100% authentic? I hear lots of variances from several actors, so I don't think there's a universal accent in Westeros.

Let me guess, you're American?

I know English people who were fooled by his English accent.

I will plant a f--king palm tree in your neck and f--k you f--king gently in its shade!
