What kind of accent does she have?[/QUOTE]

Fairly standard English I would have said.

I googled her and noticed that she was born in (North?) Yorkshire but there's not too much hint of that.

Since DA is set in Yorkshire, it would be nice to have some characters speaking the appropriate accents of the time.

I watched the first 3 seasons and then tired of it.

Theyre wearing the right clothes, its set in the right location and period, but the dialogue could be from any sitcom. I watched some of the first episode last week which only confirmed my prejudices from reviews. I think its meant to be tongue in cheek.

Hugh Bonneville is hot as hell.

That is all.

NEVER EVER watched Downton Abbey never will. Not too keen on British period pieces.
