  • stewie have a better accent than that person who speaks wilde

  • he was more english then irish , he was in england more had more effection for it and sounded more english ..a great englishman

  • @bensimps123 just because you might want him to be english doesn't mean he is, he was irish give it a rest

  • @SONofEIRE1987 i dont want him to be ...he just was

  • @bullfrog11758 No the younger man was a college student. Pedophiles like children

  • What a great idea to have Hitch interviewed for this subject!

  • @lewisbreland agreed

  • the voice actor they have for wilde is laughable. 

  • @sebaceous haha! he sounds like that kid from family guy..

  • @PetraH1989 yeah haha I think it is the american guy pretending with british accent!

  • If I was that little blond sissys father I would do the same thing.

    But succeed.

  • what is so great about a man who ignores his wife and kids rides rentboys an rips the piss of everything that points this out 2 him or disagrees with him,i dont know either im a smart cunt 4 not falling 4 it or a dumb cunt 4 not getting it!

  • @lockateard17 I think that is a side of him that people do usually forget. But then again, it is not rare for famous authors to abandon their children and or spouse especially in that era.

  • @xxxEnChantedxxx yeah not just that era it still happens alot 2 day its something that i disagree an how a person with morales like that gets such a big deal made of him i dont know

  • 5:33 I think Oscar would have gone straight if he heard how corny this letter would be resuscitated for posterity.

  • I, too, think the vocal used to represent Oscar Wilde is, at best, ludicrous. His voice is described for posterity, though not (as far as I know) recorded.

    I agree he would have had a hint of an Irish accent, but not to the degree many might hope, rather, I feel, he'd have as much of an Irish tinge as Richard Burton, or Dylan Thomas had of Welsh.

  • that's so sad he went n2 debt

  • Yes the other son was killed in World War 1

  • How can someone named MERLIN HOLLAND be Oscar Wilde's grandson? I thought Wilde fathered two SONS (no daughters). Hence, his grandson should bear the same surname -- WILDE.

  • Well... as of Part 7 I've learned the answer -- Wilde's wife moved to Switzerland and changed her surname back to her family name of Holland.

  • Sorry, didn't see that you'd discovered it!

  • after wilde was sent to prison, his wife constance had to change her surname because it was too dangerous for her to have the same surname as the homosexual writer. so she changed her name into holland and well, also the name of her sons of course. i think merlin holland is the son of vyvyan holland.

  • After Wilde was imprisoned and disgraced his wife, Constance, changed her surname. I'm pretty sure that's how he got it.

  • 1 A young Lord who is a Drama Queen, with a loon for a father--the outcome could scarcely be any less disastrous if it had happened in modern times.

    2 The pistol and swordstick should be used on the narrator--as ViolentSilence4U put it, "a Monty Python joke".

  • Oscar Wilde=Awesomeness. President for life of Uncyclopedia, and one of the greatest British minds next to Charles Dickens.

    Bravo, thanks for uploading!

  • He was Irish, not British.

  • I stand corrected.

  • Oscar Wilde was not British.. He was Irish ;)

  • As I told the other kind gent that pointed me out, I stand corrected! Now leave me alone!

  • Fuck off

  • No U!

  • @dahwang12 I can see why you thought so, when he went to Oxford he learned to affect an English accent .

  • With regard to Dorian Gray, the Dorians were an ancient Greek civilization dedicated to homosexuality and Gray was his homosexual lover at the time he wrote the book.

  • Comment removed

  • Agreed. Wilde was a representative of Genius. Do we have to make him sound like a pedantic fop?

  • he would of had at least a hint of an irish accent... and not sound like a monthy python joke...

  • @violentsilence4u Yes he was irish but lost his accent at oxford.. but still I agree with u the voice used for Oscar sounds like a joke... However I think Wilde would have loved this ridiculous voice ;)

  • @violentsilence4u Yes he was irish but lost his accent at oxford.. but still I agree with u the voice used for Oscar sounds like a joke... However I think Wilde would have loved this ridiculous voice ;)

  • @violentsilence4u Wilde actually consciously got rid of his Irish accent in his years in Oxford University. But I do agree of course that they should at least have picked a better narrator to portray Wilde. This one does him no justice.

  • Very very good, thank you!!!
