Thanks for the information !

How disappointing, though... those Fox guys should be getting the
stupidity award of the year. Haven't they watched Spooks ? If it's a

Still, I watched Stuart Little and thought the American accent
wasn't bad. On the other hand, I'm only half American.
Anyway, as you said - fingers crossed :)
