    Sorry no, what I meant was I am sure his VA comes from newcastle, and that I am sure the accent is a bit more northern, but no not a Newcastle accent. I might be thinking more North West but cant place it exactly in my head.

    It's hilarious. I'm a Yorkshire lass (from the same city as Sean Bean/Ned Stark) and can confirm they're at least trying to replicate our accent. It's hardly authentic, mind you.

    Totally agree if anything he is more like leeds. bradford, although I notice a lot of the other npc's sounding like they are from somerset lately.

    It's cool you say that, because the English voice actor for Hilda, appears to be - you guessed it - from Somerset. Jaye Jacobs.

    Yep, at first I thought Otley area (when I saw it written down) but it's more like Barnsley because he pronounces the -y, if it was Leeds or Otley it would be a hard -eh. For example he doesn't actually say "sloppeh", he says "sloppeey". It's definitely not a completely accurate representation of the relevant accents though. It's a "Hollywood" version. XD
