Well, cockney then, but that's still stupid talk. That's highly peculiar though.

Well that's weird. Very cool, but weird.

yep yep! I heard this somewhere (Discovery?) that many accents of the world are hard-wired into their brain's! this is quite interesting to see something like this happening! I wonder if it's quite a fake sounding accent (Like many american actors in movies), or if it's dead-on, as it were.

Um, wow. Totally bizarre.

I know a girl from Highschool who was born with a speech impediment and bad stuttering. They cured the stuttering but she talks with what I can only discribe as a Norwegian/Finlandish accent. She's never been out of Australia.

Uh, you are aware, I hope, that Norwegian and Finnish are languages wholly unrelated to one another? They're about as similar to one another as Filipino and English.
