It's surprising how genuinely funny he is. Anyone else remember as 4th Lieutenant Archie Kennedy?
PS - I met him at a Q&A. He's nice, funny, smart, genuine....
After the sci-fi con, when he was leaving and all the autograph sessions were over, a little 10-year-old girl came running up, asking for his autograph. He gave it to her, with this adorable grin on his face (it was the cutest thing ever.)
(And he doesn't sound gay. *frowns* Who the heck came up with that one?)
i know! i was damn surprised to find out he's british!
Teehee he's so cute :)
He talks, like i do and like many people i know ofc i have to admit i would consider myself upper-middle-class and i am from the home counties but i must disagree with you on one matter, to me Jamie's accent is a British accent, altho i hasten to add that i don't believe that there is one British accent, there are many. You are also right Jamie went to S.t John's college Cambridge.
He is so amazing 💙💙💙💙 #jamiebamber
he was raised in paris and the UK i believe.
speaking of brits that act with an "american" accent brings hugh laurie/house to mind as well.
I'm always surprised when this accent is referred to as "the British accent". It is only used by a small minority of Britons! - specifically, the upper-middle-class and upper-class English hailing from affluent parts of London and the Home Counties (the region surrounding London). Both Jamie and James Callis are from wealthy families, attended private schools, went to top universities... honestly, most Brits don't speak like this ... or speak multiple languages... or have a great vocabulary...!
He sounds like a bad ass regardless.
Holy crap. I seriously had no idea he was British and I'm also British, I should have realised!
Um, yeah. It sounds like Gaius because they're both ENGLISH.
Love Jamie. Love his accent-skillz.
Jamie Bamber is a brilliant actor and much underused in Ultimate Force. He could be the UK's next big thing. BSG was amazing!!
Brilliant. Frakin' brilliant!
I just read your comment, TheBlackB0X, and I'm not sure I would agree that this is any fault of Americans if they talk lazily and take liberties with the spoken word in films / shows. This is mainly down to the writers. So, I don't think that us Brits make your language 'better' when we mimic your accents. I actually admire Americans in how they make the English language sound so lovely and fluid. Everything rolls off the tongue. And I get so caught up in that sometimes. :)
Aye! Never had a clue he was British
wow his american accent is flawless!! i wonder why they made him do the american accent but let the doctor do his english accent
Love Jamie on Law and Order UK. Much sexier on Battlestar. Amazed at is real accent. Can understand why people think he sounds like Gaius, but if you are from UK, he does not. It;s like saying someone from North Carolina sounds exactly like someone from Seattle. Anyway, Love to all who love Jamie. xxxxx (PS. That was an Edinburgh accent).
wow,this guy nailed it like Hugh Laurie,would have never guessed..they sound so much smarter with their real accent somehow tho:P
Goddamn he's attractive.
aww.
it's so cute how he thinks he can kill cylons better than starbuck
I am from London and yes they sound identical
haha! thanks for posting this! too bad starbuck & lee can't end up together now
omfg he sounded Ameirican on the show!
When I first heard his real accent, I was totally blindsided.
HOLY FUCK JAMIE BAMBER IS BRITISH!? I had no idea.
I'm american and I get that everyone has a different accent. People from minnesota, me, and people from Texas have different accents. Just like people from all over England speak with different accents.Just because you are from England doesn't mean that you speak English the way it is supposed to be spoken!
@Ko0lHaNDLuKex I first watched Hornblower before BSG and Archie was my favourite in there! So I was more surprised to hear his American accent than his British :D
soo interesting....and he has a very nice cultured english accent (thank heavens). And yes - it is too bad that Starbuck and Apollo won't get together now..harrumph!
"I have issues!" hahahahaahha
Darth Vader was played by Dave Prowse from Bristol.
Yeah, but in Hornblower he didn't ACTUALLY murder the Captain; he takes the blame b/c he's dying anyway and it will free Hornblower from somewhat unfair suspicion. Although... in one of the early episode, he almost upsets an operation by having a fit of some sort... sorry, this has turned into a bit of ramble... but YES, flawed military officers! Good point! :P
Interesting, Do you do a long or short 'a' in, say, "fast"?
Well my mother's side of the family comes from Sheffield and they couldn't sound more different to Jamie ... but I agree it's all in a state of flux these days :)
I absolutely agree with the statements about why he should use an American accent. This is my ultimate pet hate. For example... Christian Bale (from Wales, but has a native 'British' accent) told the papers that the reason he did interviews about his role as Batman in an American accent is so he wouldn't disappoint Americans if they realised the actor playing such an icon wasn't actually an American!
oh just you wait and see about lee and kara ^^ you might like
Haha, it's really surreal hearing him speak with his natural accent. He sounds like Baltar!
wow his american accent was so good in battlestar it's weird hearing him speak with a british accent
He only plays Apollo with an American accent because his father (is a Latino and it'd be weird for them to have vastly different accents.
Gillian Anderson was raised in Canada... you fail. ;)
He's my uncle : )
SO?
THe american accent makes him sound more liek a bad-ass.
His voice reminds me a little bit of David Beckham
Agreed.
Its funny he playes flawed Military officers.
In UF he gets fired for screwing up his mission and in Hornblower he dies shortly after admitting murdering his own captain...
I like his real accent better, he doesn't sound as whiny
Love him to pieces, but WHAT in the FRAK is he wearing? o_O
Haha , well at least we have something in common with each others admiration of our accents :P However I am not trying to come over as a self hater, its just the people who I have spoken with, usually via voip, have a highly developed vocabulary, and from experience, the American standard for vocabulary is really low. I work for a school district, and I have talked to some British children with a higher vocab then most teachers.
American? :|
Do you mean ENGLISH?
Anyone who saw him in Ultimate Force would have known he was British. TBH I think he should have used his real accent for Apollo. British actors shouldn't have to use American accents most of the time just to get a job.
Everyone has an accent. Nobody speaks English as it's supposed to be spoken. Read Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw.
I'm from a working class background and have almost exactley the same accent. So I can't really agree with that statement.
He sounds like david ford, if anyones heard of him lol, soft southern dialect.
I would have to disagree, I would say some British do better American accents then Americans do. If anything its a compliment to the British, I as an American myself know that avg Americans are not the most articulate individuals, a lot of British individuals have grown up with more of a seasoned vocabulary, vs in America mostly everything being said needs to be quirky or cool, like frashizzle and that's tight, all in all using the smallest amount of syllables in a sentence.
English? He's English!!! I've been had worse than the colonians were with the Cylons :)
lol... he really does sound a lot like Gaius Baltar...
" I as an American myself know that avg Americans are not the most articulate individuals"
You've clearly never spent any time in the UK, and probably not much outside of the youth culture in the United States, if you believe the British are generally more articulate or that Americans generally are not so. Just bizarre.
No, he sounds like gaius frakkin baltar
I'm traumatised by his British accent.
Hello green, I would urge you to listen to the accents from British people from Yorkshire, Cambridge, wales etc.They all have more of a classic style of speaking, what annoys me the most about American accent's is everything is broken down into little tiny easy to swallow chunks of information. America is constantly experimenting with new ways to say things, and you speak of only knowing about American youth, that's one of the problems to sound cool American adults are mimicking their children.
What ARE you babbling about?
If you're going to listen to accents from Yorkshire and Cambridge, then it's only fair to compare with accents from upper-class Americans, as well. And they all sound perfectly coherent (if we can use BSG for reference, listen to any of the American accents - just great). Compare young Californian accents with young Essex accents, and us Brits sound quite ghastly. The worst English-speaking accents in the world belong to Essex rudeboys and Welsh valley-chavs. English youth accents are terrible.
his accent?? my whole life is a lie :/
