Umm...

Has anyone managed to decipher Billie Piper's horrendous and incomprehensible Irish accent in Penny Dreadful yet?

Also, those weren't her tits, I understand. I hope she dies of consumption soon.

That was supposed to be an Irish accent? (Saints preserve us!)

[tencrush]

Apparently. She's hard enough to understand when she talks normally.

I've been watching that too. I REALLY have to concentrate to catch everything, but some stuff I just give up for dead.

[tencrush]

I can't concentrate that well, I'm afraid. It is the most awful accent I've heard in a good few years.

I think I may give up now that they killed Proteus. He was the best of all of them.

I'm also sad about Proteus. And the seance, though brilliantly acted, really lost me.

The whole thing makes me feel like I haven't been paying attention, when I actually have. Also, I fear it may descend into that Once Upon A Time thing of hey, who else can shove in here from random Victorian/Gothic tales?

At least she freaked out Dorian Gray a little.

Why was he making porn photos, by the way? A lot of stuff just seems to happen for no reason.

Maybe those are all "portraits" that age, disease, and die?

Well, yeah, that's kind of where I thought it was going myself. That she's going to turn out cured through the magic of his camera and cock. Which I thought was a bit tacky, but yeah.

Speaking of tacky, I want to like Victor, but he always looks clammy and that puts me off.
