Dick Van Dyke finally apologises for the 'most atrocious cockney accent in the history of cinema' over 50 years after singing about Mary Poppins' 'jorly 'orlidye'
American actor Dick Van Dyke today apologised for his 'atrocious' cockney accent as Bert the chimney sweep in Disney's 1964 classic Mary Poppins. Mail.
Now that he has finally broken - extreme violence, if necessary - should be used on Anthony LaPaglia to extract a similar apology for his appalling cockney accent as Daphne's brother, Simon, in Frasier. Not only was it worse than that of Dick Van Dyke but he was meant to be using a MANCHESTER bur!
So unforgiving am I on this matter - perhaps he should be beaten, anyway!
