Hugh Laurie is not only a great actor, he is also an accomplished musician. I was lucky enough to see him perform live with the Copper Bottom Band a few years ago.
Jesse Spencer, aka Dr. Robert Chase from House who was born an Aussie, played the violin in a band along with Hugh Laurie. They called themselves 'Band from TV' and would play at many events, whilst giving the money earnt to charity.

@qwineth I'm Irish. We have an astonishing number of successful actors, for such a small population. My education was excellent. The scholarly side was balanced by drama and choir activities. I had leading roles in a number of school productions, in English and Irish Gaelic. We are all very talented on this side of the Atlantic.

I did, the wire was the first thing I'd seen him in and he wasn't really famous yet in 2002. Actually, everyone I knew thought he was American when the show first came out.

And because the comic book fan base wouldn't have accepted an actor who didn't at least look a LITTLE like Grimes. When you're creating a show from something that already has an established audience you don't want to screw it all up by casting someone completely unsuitable for that character.
I read a thing where some scholar in linguistics was saying it's policy in Hollywood to hire British actors to play southerners if a suitable southern actor isn't available. He said it's something about the vowel sounds or something but British people find it easier to imitate southern states accents than do people in the states who aren't southerners.
Surprised that Charlie Hunham didn't make this list.He played the lead in Sons Of Anarchy and is also British. He played Jax Teller for 10 years and he said it took him 2 years to get his British accent back.

Hardly tricked as it's part of the acting job description .Hugh used to be partnered with Stephen Fry in their own Comedy shows and as mentioned in Blackadder .
If you look into the personal or private lives of actresses or actors you know that some are British or UK citizens. Ross McCall who played Joseph Liebgott in Band of Brother is Scottish and speaks the American accent perfectly. Christian Bale, Kate Winslet, Tom Hardy, Tom Hiddleston and Damian Lewis too are citizens of the UK.
We do, just break it to them gently. The fact that they allow a convicted felon (at least 40 serious crimes) to run for Presidency shows they need an intelligent overseas ruler.
I think they have more pressure than Americans to pick up other accents in order to land big movie roles because the film industries in their countries are not as large or as well funded. Although they are frequently cast, I noticed that most of the highest paid actors are Americans. I have read interviews where Black British actors said they feel they have to move to the USA to find steady work.
Most British actors go to schools like RADA and get taught to speak in various accents as part of their training. The Received Pronunciation accent is one they are taught
There is no such thing as a "British accent" - each country within Britain has its own accent: English, Welsh, and Scottish (and Irish if you include the whole UK rather than just Britain).
Because all of them are obvious British. 🙄 Even an American knows that. Maybe Anthony Hopkins who’s Welsh, may be seen an American but other that….🤷🏻♀️
Funny thing is, when they needed someone with a thick London accent for The Boys, they picked New Zealander Karl Urban. And you know what, as a Brit I bloody love him in the role.
Daniel Day-Lewis’ dedication to Abraham Lincoln was so extensive and detailed that it’s amazingly impressive and inspiring especially since Lincoln’s time as President was BEFORE audio recording equipment existed so everything he researched was based on how contemporaries described his voice and how he spoke all of which Daniel took into account and he was able to create what I think modern historians have described as THE most accurate and closest interpretation to what Abraham sounded like
You should really react to "A Bit of Fry & Laurie" if you are not used to Hugh Laurie talking british, although now that I think about it, he did a lot of American parody.
not if you aren't into that whole scene. and to add to that, here in germany basically everything is dubbed. so I don't really know their real voices haha
@@Retro_Rainer I also speak German but I still knew they were Brits and I’ve never even watched Batman. Maybe it’s more difficult when you hear them speak in an American accent.. But same goes for people who are maybe Swiss and you hear them speak perfect high German. You might still know that they are actually Swiss even though you have never heard them speak Swiss German. Markus Lanz for example is from South Tirol. I know this even though I never watched him in TV. I just read it somewhere. ‚ Love actually’ for example is to Brits what Aschenbrödel is to us. It’s a British Christmas movie. The actors in it are British. It’s so widely known. I haven’t even watched it and I know this. Like I said, it’s general knowledge. I‘m not in some kind of ‚ scene‘ (which by the way is ‚crowd‘ in English).
@@MrsStrawhatberry no, I didn't mean crowd. I chose the word scene deliberately. I meant the movie/tv/hollywood scene. the ins and outs, the backgrounds, boulevard press/tabloids etc. maybe me not knowing where they're from has to do with the fact that I haven't watched regular tv in maybe 15 years. I'm not exposed to people or television that concern themselves with stuff like that. but I can tell you a whole lot about video games, for example, as that's my primary field of interest. thanks for trying to educate/correct me, though. but I'm quite happy with my english proficiency haha
@@Retro_Rainer Szene auf Deutsch hat mehrere Bedeutungen. Das, was du meinst, kann man nicht so übersetzen. Auf Englisch ist mit Scene nur ein Ausschnitt aus einem Film gemeint und nicht das Milieu wie im Deutschen. Ich habe ebenfalls keinen TV 😅 Fernsehen ist jetzt auch nicht gerade mein Hauptwissen.
I wonder if Ryan Wuzer/Was/Wass knew who Cary Grant was. He didn't say anything about him. His brother, reactor Tyler Rumple/Bucket/Walker, who said he was into movies, has never heard of him. I found that really gobsmacking..😮
Yes, that was painful to watch. Ryan doesn't boast his ignorance as much. He seems to get that others probably know a lot that he doesn't, and that it's not something to shout from.the roof tops. A more humble, mellow style. But how can any American have missed every Cary Grant movie ever made? Being Nordic I grew up with them on TV. Thought they did too. It's classic.
I remember when I first learned Hugh Laurie is British. I was completely shocked. His accent is flawless. I've never been surprised to learn that about anyone else. There's usually a tell in the accent, but not at all in Hugh's unless you listen very, very hard.
Andrew Lincoln was great in the role of Dr Robert Bridge in the British TV series Afterlife (2005-2006). The female star was Lesley Sharp. Her character is a psychic. His character is a Psychologist. It was excellent, but obviously could be very dark. She was also excellent in Scott and Bailey as Detective Constable Janet Scott, a Detective Constable within Syndicate 9 of the Major Incident Team (MIT) of the fictional Manchester Metropolitan Police.
Aidan Quinn can do a very credible Irish accent but he spent a lot of time in Ireland growing up, so he doesn't have to listen to the guff from Hollywood accent coaches who've never listened to Irish people speaking
That's the trick to it, there are so many different accents across Iireland NI and UK thers no generic Irish accent. Brad Pitt was very specific. US is the same and I presume this applies in drllifferent languages as well.
Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan...haha I know you said actors but....and the list goes on. Oh and basketball was invented in Canada. Edit: oops sorry! Bob Dylan was actually born in Duluth , Minnesota, US. @eaglemike5293 pointed out my mistake. My bad!
@@addjem Or South-African : Charlize Theron Etc.... Lots of big names in the industry that the average US American think they are Americans but in fact are Spanish, Mexican, German, Italian, Dutch, Belgian etc...
Jack O'Connell (from Derbyshire, England) does the best accents. He's American in The Unbroken, Irish in SAS Rogue Heroes and Cockney in Back to Black to name but a few.
@stam8927 Standard as in the way he speaks without taking another accent for a role. I heard people beeing asked "is this your standard accent" in interviews so I thought it might he a casual way to express what I wanted to say. I always struggle with the spelling. But now I looked it up..Because I don't like any scottish accent. But the one of people from the area of Glasgow. So let me rephrase my comment. I like his Glaswegian. Happy?
The way in which Hugh Laurie took to portraying House is the most impressive in my opinion, to do that accent and use a deeper voice than your natural one and to pull it off perfectly is brilliant.
I'v watched your content from almost the beginning and I still love the surprises you come up with, I got slated a while ago for commenting that your content was funny meaning it made me laugh, you still make me laugh keep up the good work apologies if this offends anyone not intended just saying, as a Brit I don't relay care it is what it is.
Think about it Ryan: British actors have to learn other British regional accents, so to them, America is just another region, or perhaps several regions... In the same way, some of them might do Australian, Canadian, Continental European, New Zealander or even Afrikaan accents! If you look back to footage of the Commonwealth Tour of Elizabeth II in 1954, she even encountered Pidgin English, which some might have picked up - and which the British Press at the time were more than a little taken aback that,in some pf her foreign territories, she was addressed as "Missus Kwinn!" To the native British speaker, accents are probably much easier to master than one from ma part of the world where everyone speaks in exactly the same one as they do.
America has lots of regional accents, too. New York, Boston, Georgia, etc... all sound very different. I don't think that is a good example for why British actors can master different dialects.
@@Rocket1377I think they tend to excel in that general Hollywood sounding accent but in the regional American ones not so much. Even a lot of American actors struggle with regional US accents.
it’s like the show true blood, it’s set in an extremely southern american town with very southern american accents… half of the actors are either australian, new zealanders, or british😭
Something thats even crazier is that when they were struggling actors in America you had: robert Pattinson, charlie cox, andrew Garfield and eddie redmane living together.

He wasn't that well known before appearing in the wire.
Most of his roles in British shows were 1-2 episode bit parts.
No one in the US thought he was American either.
Exactly how big was that rock you've been living under? 🤣🤣🤣
At this point, I'd recommend watching Midsomer Murders and play "Omg, I know that face "..😂😂😂
Hardly tricked as it's part of the acting job description .Hugh used to be partnered with Stephen Fry in their own Comedy shows and as mentioned in Blackadder .
@@DavidSmith-cx8dg "Tom Cruise tricks us all again by pretending to be a secret agent. I was so disappointed when I found out he wasn't."
How camn they not mention Damian Lewis (Band Of Brothers, Billions and Homeland ) to name but a few.
If you look into the personal or private lives of actresses or actors you know that some are British or UK citizens.
Ross McCall who played Joseph Liebgott in Band of Brother is Scottish and speaks the American accent perfectly.
Christian Bale, Kate Winslet, Tom Hardy, Tom Hiddleston and Damian Lewis too are citizens of the UK.
Agree
Next week we'll break it to you that in reality we still rule the world 😂🇬🇧
The yanks are working for US.
We do, just break it to them gently. The fact that they allow a convicted felon (at least 40 serious crimes) to run for Presidency shows they need an intelligent overseas ruler.
UK/Australian/NZ can do great other accents. Most US actors - not so much...
I think they have more pressure than Americans to pick up other accents in order to land big movie roles because the film industries in their countries are not as large or as well funded. Although they are frequently cast, I noticed that most of the highest paid actors are Americans. I have read interviews where Black British actors said they feel they have to move to the USA to find steady work.
Irish actors are pretty good too
Most British actors go to schools like RADA and get taught to speak in various accents as part of their training. The Received Pronunciation accent is one they are taught
David Prowse was darth vader in the first trilogy he was british and his voice was dubbed by james earl jones.
Ricks pronunciation of my name on TWD did my head right in though 😂 4:10
As another Karl, I totally agree 😅
Koral 😂
Tom Holland is the latest Spider-man.
Still it’s nice to know he’s as oblivious about his own pop culture as he is about everything else!
😂 Poor Ryan...it's called Acting 🎭
To miss quote Lawrence Olivier to Dustin Hoffman.
It is not tricking people, it is acting dear boy.
I do like your reactions but I feel I'd like it more if someone WITHOUT ADHD and TikTok brain had control of the pause button 🤣
PRICELESS‼
Your face and reaction when you realize ROSE is British….🤩🤩
My favourite bit 🥰🤣
I’m a spatial designer and I LOVE the way you’ve made the inserted screen line up with where your roof meets the wall
GOOD CALL 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤
There is no such thing as a "British accent" - each country within Britain has its own accent: English, Welsh, and Scottish (and Irish if you include the whole UK rather than just Britain).
Tom Hiddleston´s US accents are perfection.
No Anthony Hopkins? The recently deceased Maggie Smith? Helen Mirren? Emma Thompson? Alan Rickman? Gary Oldman? Damian Lewis?
And soooo many more.
It's not a list of great british actors- it's a list of those whose american accents fooled many in the US.
well hopkins is from wales and everyone knows it he didn't have a fake accent in a lot of movies idk for the rest
lol, you missed the point of this video 😂 it’s only in the….. title 😂😂
Those are well-known to be British.
Because all of them are obvious British. 🙄 Even an American knows that. Maybe Anthony Hopkins who’s Welsh, may be seen an American but other that….🤷🏻♀️
Your reaction to Kate Winslet is absolutely priceless. I thought you were going to jump out of the window.
Funny thing is, when they needed someone with a thick London accent for The Boys, they picked New Zealander Karl Urban. And you know what, as a Brit I bloody love him in the role.
Do you ever notice his NZ accent creeping in. I do.. but it’s enjoyed the show so much I purposely tuned it out. 😅
Daniel Day-Lewis’ dedication to Abraham Lincoln was so extensive and detailed that it’s amazingly impressive and inspiring especially since Lincoln’s time as President was BEFORE audio recording equipment existed so everything he researched was based on how contemporaries described his voice and how he spoke all of which Daniel took into account and he was able to create what I think modern historians have described as THE most accurate and closest interpretation to what Abraham sounded like
You should really react to "A Bit of Fry & Laurie" if you are not used to Hugh Laurie talking british, although now that I think about it, he did a lot of American parody.
Or spin them out with a bit of 'Blackadder' 😂
I'm neither British nor American but I knew that every single one of these people was British. Isn't that common knowledge?
not if you aren't into that whole scene. and to add to that, here in germany basically everything is dubbed. so I don't really know their real voices haha
@@Retro_Rainer I also speak German but I still knew they were Brits and I’ve never even watched Batman.
Maybe it’s more difficult when you hear them speak in an American accent..
But same goes for people who are maybe Swiss and you hear them speak perfect high German. You might still know that they are actually Swiss even though you have never heard them speak Swiss German.
Markus Lanz for example is from South Tirol. I know this even though I never watched him in TV. I just read it somewhere.
‚ Love actually’ for example is to Brits what Aschenbrödel is to us. It’s a British Christmas movie. The actors in it are British. It’s so widely known. I haven’t even watched it and I know this. Like I said, it’s general knowledge. I‘m not in some kind of ‚ scene‘ (which by the way is ‚crowd‘ in English).
@@MrsStrawhatberry no, I didn't mean crowd. I chose the word scene deliberately. I meant the movie/tv/hollywood scene. the ins and outs, the backgrounds, boulevard press/tabloids etc.
maybe me not knowing where they're from has to do with the fact that I haven't watched regular tv in maybe 15 years. I'm not exposed to people or television that concern themselves with stuff like that.
but I can tell you a whole lot about video games, for example, as that's my primary field of interest.
thanks for trying to educate/correct me, though. but I'm quite happy with my english proficiency haha
@@Retro_Rainer Szene auf Deutsch hat mehrere Bedeutungen. Das, was du meinst, kann man nicht so übersetzen.
Auf Englisch ist mit Scene nur ein Ausschnitt aus einem Film gemeint und nicht das Milieu wie im Deutschen.
Ich habe ebenfalls keinen TV 😅 Fernsehen ist jetzt auch nicht gerade mein Hauptwissen.
@@MrsStrawhatberry doch doch, man kann scene sehr ähnlich wie unser szene benutzen, das passt schon.
I wonder if Ryan Wuzer/Was/Wass knew who Cary Grant was. He didn't say anything about him. His brother, reactor Tyler Rumple/Bucket/Walker, who said he was into movies, has never heard of him. I found that really gobsmacking..😮
Yes, that was painful to watch. Ryan doesn't boast his ignorance as much. He seems to get that others probably know a lot that he doesn't, and that it's not something to shout from.the roof tops. A more humble, mellow style. But how can any American have missed every Cary Grant movie ever made? Being Nordic I grew up with them on TV. Thought they did too. It's classic.
I remember when I first learned Hugh Laurie is British. I was completely shocked. His accent is flawless. I've never been surprised to learn that about anyone else. There's usually a tell in the accent, but not at all in Hugh's unless you listen very, very hard.
Andrew Lincoln was great in the role of Dr Robert Bridge in the British TV series Afterlife (2005-2006).
The female star was Lesley Sharp.
Her character is a psychic.
His character is a Psychologist.
It was excellent, but obviously could be very dark.
She was also excellent in Scott and Bailey as Detective Constable Janet Scott, a Detective Constable within Syndicate 9 of the Major Incident Team (MIT) of the fictional Manchester Metropolitan Police.
That was a great and underrated series 😊
why would you think that is not her????? lol
Here's some useless trivia: Tony Curtis did an impersonation of Cary Grant in 'Some Like It Hot' when his character pretends to be rich.
Well,nobody’s perfect.
One of the best closing lines ever. 😂
I am now waiting for Ryan to look at the cast of Game of Thrones and/or Rings of Power ...
But there it is obvious. because they speak with their natural accents.
@@DJKLProductionsThe Norwegian and the Dane don’t.
As long as they don't try to pull off an Irish accent we are ok.
Absolutely no American actor has ever been able to pull off a credible Irish accent.
Hahahaha. The Hollywood "ah bejaysuss, begorrah top o' the mornin'..." nonsense.
Only Brad Pitt did in my opinion 😅
Aidan Quinn can do a very credible Irish accent but he spent a lot of time in Ireland growing up, so he doesn't have to listen to the guff from Hollywood accent coaches who've never listened to Irish people speaking
That's the trick to it, there are so many different accents across Iireland NI and UK thers no generic Irish accent. Brad Pitt was very specific. US is the same and I presume this applies in drllifferent languages as well.
I would love to see him react on how many of the big names in Hollywood are actually Canadian.
:)
Shatner, Pamela Anderson.
They talk the same
Don`t forget the australians, Hugh Jackman 1st come in my mind
Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan...haha I know you said actors but....and the list goes on. Oh and basketball was invented in Canada.
Edit: oops sorry! Bob Dylan was actually born in Duluth , Minnesota, US. @eaglemike5293 pointed out my mistake. My bad!
@@addjem Or South-African : Charlize Theron
Etc....
Lots of big names in the industry that the average US American think they are Americans but in fact are Spanish, Mexican, German, Italian, Dutch, Belgian etc...
That is the one and only Millie Bobby Brown at 11:48.
How have you never seen Empire of the Sun (Spielberg Dir.)? Christian Bale was 13 in that movie. You need to find it and watch it!
Bring tissues, you won’t get through it without crying. That movie hurts. But it’s important pain that should be remembered so I do recommend it.
Winslet is on Norton's couch during the Elba segment.
There were lots of Brits in the walking dead. The governor for example.
The amazing David Morrisey
@ yep.
Jack O'Connell (from Derbyshire, England) does the best accents. He's American in The Unbroken, Irish in SAS Rogue Heroes and Cockney in Back to Black to name but a few.
I think they missed James McAvoy. Love his Standard accent
His what? He's Scottish and so is his accent.
@stam8927 Standard as in the way he speaks without taking another accent for a role. I heard people beeing asked "is this your standard accent" in interviews so I thought it might he a casual way to express what I wanted to say.
I always struggle with the spelling. But now I looked it up..Because I don't like any scottish accent. But the one of people from the area of Glasgow.
So let me rephrase my comment.
I like his Glaswegian.
Happy?
Fun fact: Andrew Lincoln was my old headteachers brother!!
Is he not his brother anymore?
“That’s really good……….for a Brit” said no one ever,until you just uttered it.
The British actor that shocked me the most, was Morgan from the Walking Dead!
At least two Spidermans, Superman and at least two Batmans are British. Deal with it.
Now go watch `10 Americans who tricked the UK with their fake accents' - well, make that 1 or 2 if you're struggling.
If that
@@markflint2629Phillip Winchester from strike back, I only found out he was,American in the behind the scenes documentary
The way in which Hugh Laurie took to portraying House is the most impressive in my opinion, to do that accent and use a deeper voice than your natural one and to pull it off perfectly is brilliant.
I'v watched your content from almost the beginning and I still love the surprises you come up with, I got slated a while ago for commenting that your content was funny meaning it made me laugh, you still make me laugh keep up the good work apologies if this offends anyone not intended just saying, as a Brit I don't relay care it is what it is.
Man confused by people growing up.
In that clip of Bale speaking, he still has an American twang.
Robert Pattinson is English too (another Batman for ya 😂)
All the BEST actors are British.
the Kate W whole scenario was hilarious, especially when he went down the track on the truck 😂😂😂 - there should be one of these in every office
Think about it Ryan: British actors have to learn other British regional accents, so to them, America is just another region, or perhaps several regions... In the same way, some of them might do Australian, Canadian, Continental European, New Zealander or even Afrikaan accents! If you look back to footage of the Commonwealth Tour of Elizabeth II in 1954, she even encountered Pidgin English, which some might have picked up - and which the British Press at the time were more than a little taken aback that,in some pf her foreign territories, she was addressed as "Missus Kwinn!" To the native British speaker, accents are probably much easier to master than one from ma part of the world where everyone speaks in exactly the same one as they do.
America has lots of regional accents, too. New York, Boston, Georgia, etc... all sound very different. I don't think that is a good example for why British actors can master different dialects.
@@Rocket1377Georgia? As in a whole state? That’s not regional
@@Rocket1377I think they tend to excel in that general Hollywood sounding accent but in the regional American ones not so much. Even a lot of American actors struggle with regional US accents.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I love it when you need to take a walk! it's equally hilarious and sweet. Adding your child's toys to the mix is even better!
Every Reactor I watch say ‘Ring that bell’.
it’s like the show true blood, it’s set in an extremely southern american town with very southern american accents… half of the actors are either australian, new zealanders, or british😭
Cary Grant was proud of his Bristolian heritage. He was always poppi g over the pond to visit family & friends.
Im Bristolian too
Christian Bale reminds me a lot of Tom Hardy, who is so stunningly believable as the man who hosts Venom.
He's Venom too
Very surprised that Damian Lewis ( Major Winters - Band of Brothers ) isn't included.
“Guys am I missing something? That ain’t this gurl” 😂❤
Please, please if you get time, watch Hugh Laurie in Jeeves and Wooster. Priceless!
Something thats even crazier is that when they were struggling actors in America you had: robert Pattinson, charlie cox, andrew Garfield and eddie redmane living together.
Ryan it’s always a joy watching you learn new stuff ❤❤❤
Idras Elba is English through and through and I think he is a great actor and I love him.
Why are all the yanks calling Egg "Rick Grimes"?
I laughed so hard when you rode that child toy thing in shock
Well they dubbed Darth Vader too
To be fair, mr Prowse did have a strong welsh accent. British. James Earl Jones did a great job in dubbing those performances.
