634627 2008-01-28 06:09:00 Is it anything like the PBS series: "Kingdom (proweb.myersinfosys.com)"? SurferJoe46 (51)
634628 2008-01-28 06:12:00 Pardon? We don't have accents, only foreigners have those ;) R2x1 (4628)
634629 2008-01-28 06:14:00 No, i'm afraid we don't sound a bit like Stephen Fry

I enjoyed Kingdom I have to say,

pop here for some kiwi accents (http://tvnzondemand.co.nz/)

634631 2008-01-28 08:26:00 That link worked for me, maybe you have to invert your mouse before clicking?
(Anyhow, it is TV, so it is wrong.)
Maybe this (www.thecoast.net.nz) will work.

634632 2008-01-28 08:47:00 Joe, if each one of sent you a little voice clip you may find each 'accent' different .

I wish the link had worked for you . I know it is TV, but the one I tuned into with one of the Finn brothers speaking, IMHO would probably be the closest to the "au naturel" Kiwi accent .

Cheers,

634634 2008-01-28 08:50:00 Tvnzondemand seems to only be available to NZ residents, streaming is blocked to international visitors, seems a bit silly to me,
