Me and DP are watching lord of the rings in preparation for watching the hobbit when it comes out in December. My DP is not british and he very much enjoys accent spotting.
He asked me why it is allways the simple or nice but dim charactors who have a west country accent.
These are the charactors that spring to mind:
Hagrid (Harry Potter)
Meri (lord of the rings)
Vicky pollard (little Britain)
Most pirates in most film
I think this is unfair! AIBU?

AIBU to think that TV and film's use of the westccounty accent for nice but dim people, pirates and farmers is unfair?
