Law and Order: UK Actors On and Off TV

Have you ever noticed that when you watch a TV show and see some of the actors and actresses on that show and then see them in something else they look different? Like you never thought you'd see them in something? Well, I have seen pics of some of the actors and actresses from Law and Order:UK outside of this show and it's hard to believe that it's the same person. A good example would be one time I saw a picture of Bradley Walsh, who plays DS Ronnie Brooks and it was of him outside the show. For his age, he looked remarkably good, that's not to say that he does not look good for his age. He just looked different. I think it might have been the glasses he wears on the show; they make him look older than he actually is. And another example would be Ben Daniels, who plays Crown Prosecutor James Steele. On the show, his blonde hair is very short, but in real life, it's kind of long and looks good on him.

Here are some pics of the actors both on the show and off

Random Thought: Is This the Same Guy on Law and Order: UK?




I was watching Law and Order: UK the other day and I started wondering if actor Bradley Walsh, who plays DS Ronnie Brooks, always looks older like that and it turns out that outside of that show, he does not really look as old as he might be on the show. He actually looks a little younger than on the show. Which is something I never knew. That's pretty cool. In real life, he's actually a quite handsome man for his age :D

Across the Pond...

Over the years, I've heard the expression "Across the pond" used so many times I can make your head spin. When I was younger, I was always curious as to what this expression meant. So I asked my dad and he never really responded. I ask him years later what that saying meant because he said it and he said that it meant over in England. I won't tell you exactly what he called England, but if you're English and reading this, it was not a compliment what he said. So this post will show some stuff about this little country in the UK which has given us good music, good TV and sexy guys with even sexier accents, lmao!!!! And to add, some of this stuff has also become increasingly popular in the US in years past

Stereotypes
-Bad hygiene
-Not a stereotype, but true fact: British men have cute accents
-Big, yellow or bad teeth in general
-Heavy smokers/drinkers
-Snooty, stuck up
-Thinks they are better than Americans
-Obsessed with soccer
-Obsessed with the Queen
-Tight-fitting clothing
-Ride around on bicycles
-All live in London
-Very mouthy
-British men are gay
-Suave, romantic lovers
-High class accents
-Wears bowler hats
-Carries umbrellas
-Say things like "Pip pip, cheerio!"
-This one is not a stereotype, it seems to he stone cold truth. Women who might hear a British accent on an especially cute guy might fall head over heels for it and suddenly be turned on by it.
-That in movies, Brits will be butlers or gentlemen, that in Disney movies, the baddies all seem to possess an English accent

-Top Gear
