(Prima Facie that is)

I have now seen this play. For some reason, HWUTPV's accent almost seemed Birminghamish at times, despite the fact she was supposed to be using her natural lovely Scouse accent ( which she used more broadly in the recent " Help"), but this ( along with the slightly lecturing tone the dialogue takes towards the end on what is, tbf, a very serious subject) is a minor quibble. Absolutely brilliant performance from yer woman ( gosh, all those lines she had to remember!), who even manages to get a few laughs from the audience in the first half. Good soundtrack ( by that Self Esteem lady), too. 9/10, would watch again and not make any inappropriate struck through comment about how jolly attractive HWUTPV is.

Ok,Cheers.

I thought she was using her real accent when she was talking to her family, but then softening it to something slightly closer to RP in situations where that would be considered more acceptable.

Meh

I just got bored with the mutual obsession between the two characters. It's basically Michael Mann's Heat. If Michael Mann wrote more opinion pieces for The Guardian.

Perhaps he read some of them.

I think he flounced, but in a gradual fashion

Hurm. There's at least two of the old crew also missing. What if someone's picking off Cabbers?
