      No Australians, just like it’s so funny like that where like we make everything a question, we like go very high at the end of each sentence and it’s weird because Americans kind of make it a statement because Australians, I like worried that we’re gonna get it wrong like the answer is two???

      Apart from the 'R's' ('Arr' for the Yanks vs 'Ahh' for the Aussies), in yelling scenes for Poms (Brits.. UK) & Aussies, you can sometimes detect their native accent or at least one that they're not representing (eg. Gary Oldman playing Jim Gordon in Dark Night, he was yelling on a roof top & you can kinda hear nearly a quasi Aussie accent at the end).
      I'd only imagine sticking to an accent that's not your own could be incredibly difficult when yelling. But then, some people do it with ease

When I first moved here, I also exercised my mouth by talking in the morning through my clinched teeth making me use all the perioral muscles to better enunciate. Is fun to see someone thoughtful smart explaining something I figured out on my own with no a ting training or public speaking experience 20 years ago when I moved here and people were struck by my accent. I work in a fast paced high service kind of life or death where communication is important. Thank you

    I love Ginny&Georgia, I’m also an ST fan so (for some reason) I also thought of Dacre Montgomery

    POV: you knew Felix was Australian because you watched him on neighbours for years. 🤣

    Anyone know him from his Neighbours' days as the grandson of iconic couple Susan & Karl Kennedy, Ben?

    This is amazing! He makes it look so easy! It kind of reminds me of Spencer from All American. Like hes British but pulls off an american accent so well! ♥

    I’m putting Felix in the same group as Andrew Garfield. You’re telling me these men are NOT American?
