Tonight’s local election coverage on BBC News 24 is, aside from David Dimbleby, completely crap. I am currently watching Jeremy Vine do a really shit American accent, dressed as a cowboy, reading out truly woefully described statistics about the Liberal Democrats. It’s really difficult to watch. It’s as if someone has decided that local election coverage needs to be fun. Fun in the sense of BBC Children’s Television fun. My eyes feel soiled. I hope someone puts the Jeremy Vine clip on YouTube because I did not make this up but doubt anyone will believe me.

But we ‘mericans do so many riffs on “English” accents I guess they feel they can pull it off also. I suspect we’re all lousy at it unless we are trained actors, and then some of them can’t do it. I guess it’s all in the ear. I can’t tell Australian from the non-”posh” English. In Spanish I can only differentiate, Mexican, Cuban, Argentinian, Spanish from Spain, and two variants from Bolivia where my family lives.
