VIT a Min or VITE a Min?

@July

that probably goes for everywhere - I sometimes hear non Australian actors in a program made elsewhere playing an Australian character and their suppossed Australian accent is nothing like the real thing.

Just as I suspected. The Aussies I know have a more subtle accent than most actors seem to adopt…

I watch everything dubbed in Italian so I don’t have to worry about whether the accents are exaggerated or not!

Then there’s Dick Van Dyke playing the Cockney ‘Bert’ in Mary Poppins (I think the part should have been played by Tommy Steele).
