I noticed his accent would slip through sometimes while watching it. Wasn’t until he appeared on Rap City that I had it 100% confirmed he was British.

No wonder he played those away games

Although I knew before I watched The Wire, he did okay. He had some slip ups though.

This scene right here was atrocious though. A lot of Brit actors struggle when their character has to yell and/or show a lot of emotion.

Season 1 Episode 1

Most of the Barksdale organization wasn’t from Baltimore.

You could pretty much tell who was from Baltimore by the way they talked.

Nah he sounds EXACTLY like he's from Baltimore

He said "now we gonna dewit"

Remember the youtube videos comparing that Bawdimoh accent to British accent?

 

[Thurgood Thurston III]

I knew that from the beginning. Avon, Wee Bay, Bodie, Deangelo ALL sounded like they were from NY

I didn't know Stringer was British, but I DEFINITELY knew he wasn't from no damn Baltimore....

Shout out to Michael K Williams though. He was the only non-Baltimore native that actually tried

They did an inside the show interview and I was a little surprised. I got fam in Baltimore so I knew he wasn't a local but I couldn't quite place it.
