    My good lady wife has taken to watching the show and though I don't myself like that sort of thing I did catch a bit wandering in and out of the front room, or if you will lounge. The question I have that I hope will be cleared up by one of our American members is Hue Lawrie's accent, to me it sounds forced. I think I remember him using it for a book reading (I think it was a Roald Darl) and keep expecting him to carry on with the narrative in his own voice. So is his accent genuine and where in the US would you place it?

    His accent is pretty generic. Most actors and news anchors receive voice training just for a generic accent or really lack of an accent. In fact I had no idea he was British till I saw him in a interview after I've been HOUSE for awhile. I was blown away!!
