Is this recorded 1939

[@chrisnis8329]

[@bmasters1981]

That is true-- this is a historical series that has actors playing the profiled people; Bill Worley is playing James Naismith here.

[@deniselane2500]

@@bmasters1981 So why did the interviewer point out the accent? That's weird considering it's supposed to be historical? James Naismith didn't have a Scotts-Canadian accent.

Sorry, you don't get a Scottish accent growing up in Canada, even if your parents are Scottish.
