It's filmed in my neck of the woods of the U.K. The beautiful West of England, Bristol and Clevedon.
I promise no spoilers.
And yes, Judges and Barristers really do wear those wigs.

Oops, I thought it was further down than that. My Bad.
It's only about 50 miles from me then.
I think a friend of mine was in an episide a while back.

Hey, thanks you guys!! I think it's the phrases and pronunciation that messes me up.
Like Russell Brand uses the "f" sound for American "th" ...... same as these folks.
That's where I got confused. So - am I backwards on where Billy Elliott and The Full Monty were supposed to be?

Thanks!! Like I said, I was confused....
I know the Billy E and Full M settings and accent were in Yorkshire.
But what about The Englishman? And Fawlty Towers?

I don't really have an accent.
an Englishman accent like basil fawlty is just a middle class university educated accent, but there are so many accents in the uk, they can vary depending on location or social class. I live near Oxford and don't have an accent, but there are a lot of accents in Oxfordshire, villagers and town folk even speak different. I live in the same area as our prime minister, but don't speak anything like him. I don't really have an accent. Maybe a bit of country bumpkin going on, but nothing too strong, people do tend to call each other "love or duck round here though, which would sound strange to an outsider "me duck".
