Correct. Interesting that two of the three male leads in Frasier were gay.


Every male on Frasier except Frasier was gay... Niles, Marty, Gil, Bulldog.

Super bummer. One of my all time favorite shows.

He is one of those solid English actors that lands a great role.


And, honestly, he was more American than English - he was already here before he was 20 - apparently he lost his English accent in his 20s/30s and didn't really start to get it back at all until he was regularly around Jane Leeves. I'm not sure if that's related to the scene where Marty affects a British/English accent (badly), but it was hilarious nonetheless. (Just as it was when Dominic West did a similar bit in The Wire where he, a British actor playing an American cop from Baltimore affects a terrible British accent to go undercover - that is incredible acting right there.)
