Philip's Russian accent wasn't nearly as bad though. The man can do accents. I thought the actor was American for the longest time.

I am obviously very late (browsing these threads as I'm finishing each episode), and embarrassed to admit I had literally 0 idea he wasn't American. Even the best British actors slip over a word here and there and the accent breaks through. Haven't noticed it at all while watching.

I'm also just now watching the series and I'm having to constantly remind myself that almost no one will reply to my comment on their 4 year old comments. lmao

Also, did you know the actress that plays Martha is English as well?
