TV review: Why I doubt I’ll watch episode two of Those About to Die
Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson as Viggo and Moe Hashim as Kwame in Those About To Die. Picture: Reiner Bajo/Peacock
There are plenty of dodgy accents in Those About to Die (Prime). And there just isn’t enough Anthony Hopkins.
He could have been on screen as Roman emperor Vespasian, doing Anthony Hopkins stuff, when instead we had a clearly Mediterranean-looking woman speaking in the kind of Scottish accent you’d get from a tartan tin of shortbread.
