Do you really believe that Russian spies have Russian accent?



I don't, but it's amusing that this comment has a Russian accent.


If you watch enough English language spy movies you will know full well that a Russian spy has a Scottish accent. So do Russian submarine captains. Funnily enough a British spy and a Russian submarine captain were played by the same actor - Sean Connery. Russian spies are played by less posh Scots.

Hollywood and co. doesn't get out much or something.
