My Anglo-Addiction

Bill Paterson
Ok, I admit it. I am powerless against the lure of the British, Scottish, and Wales...and Ireland. I think it all goes back to when I was a child. We watched alot of PBS so I watched Upstairs, Downstairs, Dr. Who and of course Monty Python's Flying Circus. Remember, that I grew up at time when Python was brand new. The timbre and melody of accents, of words (torch for flashlights, bonnet for carhood etc.) all fascinated me as a child. Its funny to me when people tell me they can't suss out accents, it all sounds natural to me.

Robson Green is Doctor Tony Hill

Wire in The Blood As a clinical psychologist, Hill works with convicted killers in prisons. But he is also gifted with the ability to see into the mind of his patients, to delve and discover information that can be used in research. He is attached to the Police Department as an advisor in strange cases. His ability to understand both victim and killer makes him vunerable at times. Most of the police view him as an interloper on their turf. Robson's Official Site
