The most gloriously Irish interview of Rio 2016

Комедия

The O'Donovans give their post race thoughts on bathing, cuisine, down time and race strategy in what can be argued as the best interview of Rio 2016. They row pretty well too.

    @@foxja1 Each individual can be assessed comparatively against others by swapping about between partners. P O'D was clearly the fastest, and so it was merely finding the most productive partner. A very challenging task. Gary understood the nature of that task. If he was to be the "assumed" partner of Paul, then in all likelihood, they would at best have got Silver, and maybe have been fighting for Bronze with the Italians. All rowers know this score, hard though it can be. Gary has been very sound about being on the wrong side of this decision. He looks far "sweeter" partnering Paul, but Finton gives Ireland a chance to get the Gold medal. For the record books, it is not relevant who did it, but as long as some combination including at least one O'Donovan does it, the world is momentarily a better place. (For the interviews! :) )

    This is a west Cork accent. Various regional accents like this used to be a lot more common but most young people now have (or have been influenced by) the new 'Supraregional' accents. Meaning their accents no longer change much from region to region. Sadly this happens in every country where there's one part of the country with an overwhelming mass of people (Dublin). It happened in New Zealand too where all the various accents gave way to a standard Auckland based one, which is now just the 'New Zealand accent'.

    @@wideawake914 Yes Indeed. RTÉ and most of Ireland's main national institutions are based in D4, they have always owned RTÉ and they only hire people who sound like them for the 'important' positions. Therefore almost everyone on the 'national' radio channels have that same posh Dublin drone regardless of where they were born. It is true, as Bordieu tried to explain, that the upper middle class does everything in it's power to guard the status of it's own dialect. Go back through the RTÉ archives. You will not find a newsreader who doesn't sound posh. Since the seventies and our joining of the EU they have become less 'British' sounding but it is still the exact same people from the exact same part of the country who hold the influence

I guess being used to Jamaican accent helps. I hear the similarity but I always thought parts of britiain has some similiar sounding accents to Jamaicans. Were all one human race ppl. Your geography of your birth place means more then your skin tone. Thank about that. Two Koreans can have a baby born in Cuba and and and a thick Cuban accent depending on sheltered he/she is or isn't.
