I remember the 'I love lucy' show well. As children we thought that the
American accent was a 'television' accent, as some 80% of TV content was
from the U.S. The Australian accent still sounds wrong in films (especially
when attempted by American actors!) How many of you would have been exposed
to even 1/4 of that worth of Australian content? <LOL> Don't remember the
vega.. whatsits episode though!
