AmandaBlovesPatrick	1. RE: Owain's real accent Jun 13 2009, 7:55 PM EDT I have now heard Owain's real accent, just recently on YouTube, I was enjoying watching loads of The Mentalist videos and saw a video called "Behind the scenes with Robin Tunney" it was called or something like that, and they talked to all of the cast and so I heard Owain speak with his English/Welsh accent! I was totally amazed and delighted :~) He sounds lovely and so sweet! You just would never imagine he's not actually American as his American accent is so very good & convincing. I've seen another video which is just Owain being interviewed on some American chat show and that was brilliant as well, Anonymous is so right, Owain sounds so cute & adorable :~D AmandaBlovesPatrick :~) Post reply Do you find this valuable?
lilsmiles	2. RE: Owain's real accent Jun 16 2009, 9:55 PM EDT I have to agree, Owain's Welsh accent is just squee-worthy. I don't hear it slip out as much as Simon's. I guess it's b/c Rigsby doesn't do as much talking as Jane does. Post reply Do you find this valuable?

GraceVanPelt	4. RE: Owain's real accent Jul 30 2009, 9:46 AM EDT It's so cool because it's just how my friend speaks, because they're form the same town. Wales rocks :D [okay, admittedly I'm biased, but still] And I rather like his accent, but Simon's is better :L Post reply Do you find this valuable?
amk358	5. RE: Owain's real accent Oct 23 2009, 12:11 PM EDT It's not a very Welsh accent, you should hear some of my family!! They are from South Wales too. Chepstow where Owain is from used to be in England and is on the border so he doesn't really have a proper Welsh accent. He sounds more English! Post reply Do you find this valuable?
Axela	6. RE: Owain's real accent Dec 11 2009, 2:59 PM EST there's a video of him on youtube talking about how if he ever has kids he'll send them back to England to get a good English accent because he doesnt want them to have an American accent! Post reply Do you find this valuable?
amk358	7. RE: Owain's real accent Dec 11 2009, 5:54 PM EST Well he has an English rather than Welsh accent! You should here some of my family's accents (they are WElsh by the way!) Post reply Do you find this valuable?

RE: Owain's real accent Feb 3 2010, 2:28 PM EST \| Post edited: Feb 3 2010, 2:28 PM EST Yeah and he went to University in London so that might have something to do with it sounding English. When I found out he came from Wales I was like WOW that is sooooo cool lol XD In Russet Potatoes when they are all asking at the end if Rigsby knew what he did when he was hypnotised and he says "No, not really. Good thing huh" or something like that you can really hear the accent. Its IMMENSE XD Love it =D He wondered if Rigsby could come from Cardiff but that didnt work lol. I think its cool the way he can put on an American accent, just like Simon. Im from the UK and have a bit of an American accent but only because I watch too much TV lol =P x Post reply Do you find this valuable?

RE: Owain's real accent Feb 5 2010, 7:10 AM EST \| Post edited: Feb 5 2010, 7:10 AM EST Well he comes from Chepstow which was actually in England until the 1950s so the people there don't sound very Weslh unless they come form out of the area!! I've worked there and visited there as it's fairly close to me! Post reply Do you find this valuable?
