Charlie Haylock returns to the Eastern Angles stage with a fascinating new talk about how he became the dialect coach for Ralph Fiennes on the The Dig, a Netflix film about the discovery of the Sutton Hoo burial ship.

Charlie will show how Ralph Fiennes, who played Basil Brown, learnt the notoriously tricky Suffolk accent and managed to avoid sounding like a West Country pirate!

Charlie will also explain the extreme lengths Ralph Fiennes took, not only to play Basil Brown, but to become Basil Brown.

Charlie is the best-selling author of Sloightly on th' Huh! and A Rum Owd Dew!
