"So... Doyle, where are you from then?"

"Tought it was obvious? Ireland."

"Yeah, but where exactly? I've been trying to place your accent..."

"Fancy ya know Irish accents, do ya? Ever been dere?"

"Why, aye. Born an' raa...eee...iized." And Angel set about to prove his birthplace by, for the next ten minutes, speaking in a long-neglected dialect that might - might - have passed for Irish on... oh, say, American TV.

All his tortured vowels earned him, though, was a healthy gutlaugh and a slap on the shoulder. "Nice try, pal. Tell ya what, rent De Commitments again and practice some more."

My initial reaction when Doyle showed up was "Wow, they finally got a dialect coach on the show! Maybe now Angelus' Irish will be better too!" ...Yeah. Not happening. Hehe. Thanks!
