Hmm, I didn't know that. Probably was the reason it sounded so good and probably a big reason he won the role. Makes me think that it would have been more interesting if "Malcolm" had been Irish instead of British.Pensive said:
If I'm not mistaken, Dom's dad is Irish(?) so the accent wouldn't be a stretch for him.....

Possibly due to the whole storyline as a whole being a snoozer so far. At least he got a turn as the bad guy at the end though.
