Take your point but then they would be speaking English in a false Russian accent. Would there really be any point in that? For real authenticity they should all speak Russian... Or French too.

Overall,it was well acted.

I forgot Ade Edminson was in it.

Nah could have least tried to sound i mean could have sounded like how lilly roma, Evelyn or Anastasia sounds. there are loads of russians and poles in the uk now

i mean if they can do cornish in Poldark and Jamica inn I mean if they can get 2 russian sounding people for the meerkats

Just reminded me of kevin costner in Robin hood where he didnt even try

The Kevin Costner american accent in Robin Hood is inexcusable.

Lilly Roma should be in it, agreed.

If Lilly Roma was in it,then it would have been an instant classic.

Or they should have got Zangief from Street Fighter 2.

He's a genuine Russian.

Wouldn't an English person putting on a foreign accent be accused of rampant racism these days.

It's allo allo all over again.

Nah only be racist if its demeaning if you were taking the piss or mocking of the russians but how can u mock when you are recreating one of the countrys greatest authors work

I'll stick it out.

It was probably too much of a tall order for the BBC to do it justice.

I'd just like to thank Tuppence Middleton for getting them out last night, good girl.

Tuppence's tidy tits. Middleton's magic mammaries.
