    Is this confession hour? I don't think Sansa is pretty, when she speaks I cringe, and I've not liked her parts of the story since page one (or whatever page she was first written on). The show hasn't changed that.

    I thought it was common for people's voices to get lower when they're angry or being threatening. Mine becomes a growl

    I don't mind Sansa's voice per se but for me it's one of those things that break immersion a bit - I don't know anything about british accents but to me the way she talks sounds really modern to me and very out of place in a medieval fantasy setting. Arya's voice too, to a lesser degree. I'm not sure what it is about them.

    The accents are just smurfing crazy town. It's weird because some actors have made real efforts to change their natural accents such as Robb, Ygritte and Joffrey so someone somewhere has made a decision for them to talk as they do... but then not other actors. Why change some, and not others? Joffrey's actor naturally has an Irish accent but dropped it for the show, yet for some reason it's fine for Cat, Littlefinger and Roose Bolton to keep their Irish accents.

    I think I've said this before but the entire Stark family has different accents to each other, as do the Baratheons. And no wonder Gendry refused to believe Davos when he said he was a Flea Bottom boy too when he started speaking in that filthy geordie accent. I dunno, can non Brits even notice? I assume it's obvious with the likes of Melissandre and the Dornish, but can you tell, say, Ygritte, Sansa, Arya and Davos apart? All four have different English accents.

    Oh, and Tyrion has the worst smurfing accent ever.

    Depends on the actor and accent. I really couldn't tell Catelyn's accent was Irish, nor can I tell Roose Bolton's is.

    Samesies.

    Yeah I mean some are but I don't notice too much, no. Then again, a lot of non-english fans wouldn't know the differneces as they aren't around those different accents. They all sound similar to non-english people I think.

    That just seems weird to me, I could comfortably identify 6 or 7 different US accents despite not living there. Incidentally the New Orleans cajun accent is awesome.

    I can definitely tell that there are plenty of different accents although I couldn't place where they're from and honestly I don't think about it that much when I watch - I hadn't even considered that the Starks all had different accents, but now that you mention... xD

    In terms of accents in England I can only really identify cockney. Maybe make educated guesses about Newcastle and Manchester accents.

    Yeah you can tell the accents are different but I don't really give a smurf which are which or whatever.

    Littlefinger's Irish accent is the most blatant one on the show for me. xD Every time he opens his mouth it's like WELCOME TO IRELAND

    It doesn't really bother me, I find it funny overall

    edit: I'm waiting for Bronn to tell everyone that he's off to have a cheeky Nando's with the lads
