Juliet Landau is incandescent & such an under rated actor. It's a crime that she wasn't a huge star, and i feel deprived of seeing much more of her talents. Her Buffy character, Dru, was criminally under developed. And she once followed me on Facebook! Plus her mother was my first childhood crush on Space 1999.
Oh my god. Watched Space: 1999 and Buffy a million times, never made the connection to Barbara Bain although it's blindingly obvious in this little clip.
Probably pretending a little bit for humorous effect. After all he worked so hard to give a pretty convincing accent back in the day it stands to reason he'd pick up some of the slang too.
@@dallassukerkin6878 ..True, then again in hindsight, with him not being British at all, and having to learn his lines more likely in a phonetical style to keep in accent, any meanings of British slang(s), idioms & colloquialisms likely would be forgotten by his American brain in the retaking of scenes/shots.
@@Thurgosh_OG No, I meant "the." Being British myself, I am well aware there are hundreds of different accent variations on England. However, I was referring specifically to the one Juliet uses. Perhaps I should have phrased it slightly more clearly: "that's where she first learned the English accent she uses as Drusilla."
Wow, i have never heard Juliet's normal voice before (i only know her from Buffy). Ive heard James' before and was just as shocked the first time i heard his
Juliet absolutely nailed this, I think a few Brits wouldn't get one or two of them depending on where in the country they are. James was masterfully bad at this!
I love how Anthony Head sounds like Spike in real life ❤ Also, Anthony and James have aged like fine wine and are gorgeous. Juliet is ethereally beautiful, hasn't aged at all and might actually be a vampire in real life.
@@bethrivas5041 Wasn't that supposedly because he was originally horrible at it, and Anthony came storming up to him like "I've got friends at home who watch this show, and I won't have them laughing at me because your accent's wrong", and proceeded to teach him how to do the accent properly? Or was that just a rumor? I thought James talked about it in an interview years ago.
It was only when I saw this video that I realized Tony played Rupert in the Ted Lasso show. It was like a lightning strike of recognition. Shows how brilliant of an actor he is in any role. It was lovely to see these three together again!
She looks just like her mom. It blows my mind that she's 10 years older than I am. But if we were walking down the street together, and people didn't recognize her, they'd just assume I must be her dad. Maybe she is a vampire.
First time I saw James Marsters in a movie was House On Haunted Hill & I was surprised to find he was actually American. The guy does one of the most authentic English accents I have ever heard from an American. Worst has to be Don Cheadle in Oceans 12
Awww.. haven't seen Anthony Head for a while. He was my favourite character on BTVS. James Marsters was my fave villain, & Juliet Landau's acting skills were phenomenal on the show. For me, the best line in the entire show was Giles; "bloody hell!" he yelled drunkenly while heading upstairs, after he found out that Willow was a lesbian. 😂
i'm from the North West and i've never heard "chirpsing". i've also never actually heard anyone use "apples" outside of people being quizzed on their knowledge of Cockney rhyming slang, but that could just be because i don't know any Cockneys. according to the OED, "Barney" meaning "A row or noisy argument; an altercation" is a lot older than the Flintstones
How can you see Juliet and not think of Agent 99? Loved Get Smart and thought Barbara Feldon was so pretty with the long hair. Hey, she can play a vampire and a spy.
In the days when most American actors obtained their "British accent" from the Dick Van Dyke School Of 'Ow To Talk Right Proper, having these two take it seriously and do a decent job was a rare and welcome exception.
Ive met Juliet who was ridiculously LOVELY. And so was Tony when i met him! I hear so many people say thr same thing about James! I fell the Giles, Spike and Dru is the Spin off we all need!
The point of the slang was not to say the whole phrase. It was to say the word in the phrase that doesn't rhyme with the intended meaning. So "apples" is the full version of the slang. "Apples and pears" is simply the codeword (or codephrase) to unlock the real meaning of "stairs". You don't go including the codewords in your coded communications.
As an American, I am so proud of myself for knowing just enough Cockney rhyming slang to recognize that "apples" and "barney" meant "stairs" and "trouble". 🍎 Though, if I'm totally honest, I think the only reason I remembered "barney" is because they used it in Ocean's 11... 🤣 EDIT: More accurately, I remembered because they actually spelled out the meaning of "barney" in Ocean's 11.... "Barney. Barney Rubble. Trouble!" Not just the mere fact that they had used it at all.
I'm English, and I never knew that "barney" meant trouble, or that it was rhyming slang. The word "barney" has entered the language meaning an argument or a fight without us even knowing that it comes from Cockney rhyming slang.
Sounds like you need a dose of the 70's Brit cop show "The Sweeney" (Sweeney Todd = Flying Squad, or to others, the Plod). You'd like it, it's British Met police with guns and little regard to human rights! Better still, watch some Gut Ritchie movies with Jason Statham, e's a proper geezer. It's all Mockney, but anyone who unironically uses rhyming slang is a bit of a bell-end.
To be fair without context rhyming slang is difficult to get. If the question had been put "he went up the apples" they might have guessed stairs. I am British and if someone came up to me and said "what does 'apples' mean in England" I would also think of fruit first, but in the right context I understand most rhyming slang ancient and modern.
Juliet Landau has such a great voice. It's always a little surprising when I hear her real voice (I grew up listening to her on Justice League Unlimited where she uses an accent that's a little Transylvanian. Didn't start watching Buffy until this year so it was kinda cool to match a face with the voice.)
They purposely made this hard for them. Being part british myself I've watched alot of British television and read a lot of British books and I pride myself in knowing quite a bit of British slang but I would have failed this

Well Juliet was born in America but moved to England as a child and back to America in her late teens. Source IMDb.
James was actually in series 2 of the British show Torchwood. He played an old friend of Captain Jack's
Spike called Angel a Muppet when he turned into an actual Muppet but I always assumed he was insulting him with the slang use 😂😂😂
In Angel "5x14-It's smile time", Spike called Angel a puppet.
He said "You're a puppet ! You're a bloody puppet !"
"Your a wee little Puppet man!"
"Wee ickle puppet man" @@danielaferrari1380

I’m a 43-year-old British woman, and I’ve never heard of “Chirpsing”. This was fun, though. I always smile to hear Anthony’s real accent. ☺️
Chirpsing has been around since the 90s

Every time Spike came out with a great British phrase, I thought, "I bet Tony's taught him that".
Bollocks!
God Anthony Stewart Head gets more handsome with age.
ages like fine wine, Juliet though looks to not have age a bit, perhaps she really is a vamp!
He looks younger
He would be my dream cast as the Doctor
I can't believe he's turning 70 in a few months. Looks like he's in his 40s or 50s.
Had a crush on him as a kid, turns out that hasn't changed. He's beautiful.
Juliet/Dru is just absolutely gorgeous. She's hardly aged in all that time. Just so adorable ❤️
She is actually a vampire.
she's stunning!
None of them have. Not appreciably in a visual sense. Modern life/medicine/supplements/makeup is a heck of a drug.
Love how she slid right back into Drucilla character. Awesome!
Nearly 20 years ago she did a signing at my local comic store and I was bowled over by how stunning she was in person. Great to see she's still the same.
I absolutely LOVED Buffy and never missed a single one. For ages I didn’t realise that Spike wasn’t actually English irl. Love you all ❤
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who thought that.
Wesley is American too. Which is even more confusing because he was an Angle in Sharpe also.

Juliet Landau was so crazy awesome as Dru. I wouldn't know that she wasn't british. She's amazing.
This was fantastic. James calling Tony HOT and Tony's response just goes to show the tight friendship but somehow sexy cause of the accents lol
"cracking your skull open" James your Spike is showing
Ooosh
Juliet Landau found the fountain of youth it seems! She looks younger and even more beautiful now than she did on Buffy/Angel! x
Or maybe she's more like Dru than we know! Can she be seen in a mirror?
Wait, didn't Harmony Kendall solve that problem so she could put her makeup on right?
Love this. Only recently realized that Juliets parents were Martin Landau and Barbara Bain from Space 1999 :-)
And before that from the early series of Mission: Impossible, although I think you're too young to know that - way before your time
Im shocked James was so bad at this because he used some of this slang in buffy 😂. Still love buffy to this day and Angel was awsome

Juliet Landau killed it. Makes sense because her accent is really stellar.

Juliet spent some of her childhood growing up in the UK when her parents were filming Space 1999; that's where she first learned the English accent.

Sorry James.

Juliet lived in London in her teens, so some of them she would know from then. She went to my old school.
