The Crown Cast Teach You How To Do A Royal British Accent | MTV Movies 

Fatima Butt me tbh. I’ve become so in love with them as Elizabeth and Philip on the show, and am a bit sad that there will be a different cast next season.

Samee. I just cant get over the fact that theyre leaving. ITS SO SAD. They shouldve just made them look older. :p

HAHAHAHA YESS

I'm here

Olivia St. Pierre still here

You'd be surprised at how much movement and posture helps with getting the voice right. Maybe the best known example is Douglas Rain's voicing of HAL in 2001 and 2010. To get the right calm, emotionless voice, Rain sat in a comfortable chair, took his shoes off, and rested his feet on a pillow.

almostfm lol I know. I'm a theatre performer, as well as a voice actress from time to time. In theatre, I had to act as a woman from the 1920's. It was easier with the right attitude, of course, and my co-actresses and I always talk that way whenever we enter the rehearsal halls to stay in character as much as possible. Our language is pretty modernized nowadays and we tried so hard to keep talking in our old deep authentic language but by staying in character, it was easier, and it was hard to switch on and off. That's why I love Vanessa's change in attitude here, because it is subtle and beautiful, and it really is relatable but bloody hell, I will never be as good as her like that HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

I used to act as well and one time I played Lady Bracknell in The Importance of Being Earnest and I'm American so every time I was around anyone in the cast we all spoke in posh English accents even just like around campus and we'd get weird looks. Even after the play was over it was just a habit. I remember we all went out after the last show and we were all sitting there in IHOP with perfect posture speaking in posh British accents at like 1 in the morning. And sometimes even now when I want to sit up straight, I just accidentally start speaking in a posh accent and people are like why the hell are you talking like that?

Юлия Элизабет Юлия Элизабет YAHH oh my god, the women of the past in my country were very conservative, deep minded fighters who want their freedom, who always have their backs straight and movements reserved... It was so different from the modern Filipino-we're crazy loud party people now who loves fun so much... and oh God, the accent God... My friends found it weird when I happen to talk to one of my co-actresses in university because I just "revert" to female Filipino warrior mode, because I'm the crazy frantic always dancing bubbly kind of person, so they were like SHOOKT whenever I go back in habit hahahahah especially when I learned deeper words in Filipino which I still now use in my daily conversation. It's quite fun to see their "Who the hell are you and what have you done to Allysa?" expressions... and then I go back to my normal self because I am with my friends hahahahahah This is one of the reasons I love acting so much hahahahah

Allysa Dequiño BITCH YASSSS! Haaaiii! I'm a quarter Filipino!

LeslieU1999 no i love them in the show

Yeah I could see them dating lol

Hola Hola they’re not supposed to have good chemistry because she’s frigid and their marriage is tense

Jules Frank I still love them in show But also in real life they love each other In the marriage there are some difficulties and more if they are a public image But they love each other anyways

If you were following the show at all then you would have known they were not supposed to have chemistry.

Definitely. I never thought Helena Bonham Carter got it quite as well as Vanessa Kirby.

And then that piggy laugh. hahaha ♥ love her

The accents are ENGLISH not BRITISH ( which is England Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland combined to make Gt Briton )

Hahahahahhaa

I love your sarcasm

Thank you, Amber! You made my dayXDDDD

Thats the best comment ive read in a decade

Lmao

Patrick Lau They use makeup to make them look a little bit older apparently.

Off screen she looks very Julie Andrews.

its what you expect to see because of who they are portraying and the way the actors have their posture. I have a family friend who I like to joke was born middle aged so I automatically add 10 years to his life because of the way they hold themselves in conversation. Its weird how the mind and eyes play tricks on each other

And it’s interesting because they play mid 20-somethings on the show

I do too. I remember the scene when Elizabeth broke the bad news to Margaret and they were sitting on the park bench. Margaret look was so in shock that when Elizabeth tried to hold her hand, Margaret just instinctively pulls away as if saying, "Don't touch me." And Elizabeth also quickly retract back. Masterful!

that snort!!! 😍😍

She is great. Just talked about her stardom in a vlog 🎥

Shaun where? Link!

I laugh when she snort 😅

they grew up around their grandmother queen mary who was german wasnt she?

Actually Queen Mary was born and brought up in Britain.

Caligula Longhbottom Both Philip and Elizabeth were related through Queen Victoria if I remember well. She was part German. Her husband was also German(from Coburg). Same for her mother. So I figure that's where the accent comes from. But I think more relatives/royals before that time were also (part) German.

TwinkeCollection(main) Victoria was born and grew up in Britain and did have slightly German-accented English. George V’s children spoke with very little or no accented English. Philip grew up in Paris and around Germany, so his English would be accented.

The first Georgian King's in the 1700's were German and didn't even speak English.

Philip was better looking than Matt Smith

Totally. The royals have never been very good looking. Generations of inbreeding would do that to you

they are all ugly

Yeah none of them are that goodlooking imo

Young queen Elizabeth II and princess Margaret were stunning though

True I miss them so much

Agreed!

and Vanessa

True!

Yes! Definitely

And Katy Perry

And Anna Friel (when younger)

And Emilia Clarke

Yeah, great butt. Yeah, he's got a great butt.

Such a legend. I recently said in a vlog that he’s the standout actor in the show. Agreed? 🎥

Agree. he's so hot

Same

Really? Their normal accent sounds less posh to me and more regular middle class British.

Emack B Matt Smith is always adorable

ikr! anyone can help what kind/type of necklace is that?

I was about to ask that. Just finished s1+2 and now binging every existing interview and Matt's wearing that piece EVERYWHERE!

A lot of British have played American characters.

If you listen to the older generations there's definitely a bit of german there.

Believe me season 3 actors are the best

J. Nic if I remember correctly, her real hair color is blonde.

Agree

I agreeee!!

Women want attention more than respect...

J. Nic I agree with you

SJ Cohen there was no doubting that

Oh.

He and I.... Haha but oh wells... it isn't a Cambridge exam so let's just enjoyyy

"Tom and I WILL END YOU if you correct me again." (If anyone gets this I'll give you a cookie)

OhNoHereComesAlice ! ayeee quensadilla💀

By 'English in TV... " do you actually mean the RP? Cuz the Queen's accent is definitely different from the standard RP.

The Kennedy's had an invented American accent too ... makes them be unique
