Wrong. Turns out after investigating, the character is Latvian. And a Pole would not take kindly to being classed as a Latvian. Interestingly, the actor himself, Kristian Kiehling, is German.

Looks like you hit the nail on the head about his accent then. I'm hopeless at identifying accents, apart from French and American (even then I can't tell the difference between American and Canadian :o).

I thought David's proposal was really sweet and unexpected. I wonder how Carol will react - she didn't appear too pleased.

That's it, Daz. He may playing a Latvian, but he's got a German accent. Not that I'd be very adept at identifying the difference in the two accents to be honest. And I too, an American, can't always identify Canadians! I need to hear them say the word "about" which often, but not always, is a giveaway.

Carol never seems too pleased about anything. Sourpuss.

And the best part is I have an accent similar to The Sopranos or Cake Boss.
