Comment on Why doesn’t Paddington, who is famously from "Darkest Peru," speak with a Spanish speaker’s accent?
Boozilla@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoLoved the look of it and the voice. Didn’t get to watch much of it growing up. 😕

The voice was the late, great Michael Hordern. I can’t think of something he was in where he wasn’t delightful.
And if you ever want to hear an amazing take on Gandalf equal to Ian McKellen’s, he played him in the BBC radio version. (Incidentally, Peter Jackson must have been a fan of that adaptation because Ian Holm, who he cast as Bilbo, played Frodo in the radio version.)
