Sorry, not another VBH thread but an Eastenders topic.

Vicki Watts used to have a Canadian accent until a few weeks ago but now its all gone very posh English. Did I miss something?

PS its sad I know but there you go.

Still would though, and her big sister, possibly dot after a few sherries.

Accents can change that quickly, i remember going to a footie match with a Scouse friend, he'd moved away from there ages ago. But 90mins sat in the Toffees end and he sounded like a true scouse again.

Weird!

Thumbs up

i think they realised that her attempt at an american accent was so utterly sh*te, they just told her to forget it. she doesn't seem to be even trying to sound cockerney, either.

Well, if she's trying to fit in, you think the English accent would be a bit forced - but when she started shouting she still carried on with the English accent - you'd have thought she'd have slipped back into American when she lost her rag.

A mate lived for years in Blackpool - and his accent changes depending on where he is. If he's here in Cumbria he has our accent, but when we go for nights out in Blackpool it switches back to a Lancashire accent - he doesnt seem to be able to control it.

She was told to drop the accent by the producers due to making a complete *** of it

I understand that they were talking about Dennis waking up and finding out that it was all a dream!

Vicky and Dennis junior go to the top of my woodentop actors, just ahead of that sparkling duo Berry and Tomkinson!

Vicky has it in her contract that she cant do nudity, nor can she do tongues when kissing. Shame on both counts.

There is something about her that I like,............oh yeah, thats it, shes female and has a pulse!
