I can only assume that all other British actors were busy playing Americans, so he was delegated to be the Australian. I think he is rather talented, but there are sometimes better people for the roles they give him. He is usually pleasant to look at, though. Not here.

I was talking about this with Mr B earlier and we agreed that the thing that we don't like is that Assange has basically run roughshod over the legal rights of the women involved, because he is A Hero and they are probably Pawns in his narrative. It's certainly not only the governments involved who are putting them in a bad light.

That's a very good description of Assange's dismissal of the women in question. Here's a Private Eye piece from last year that sums it up very nicely:

Although, to be fair, Australian actors are busy singing in a French musical at the moment, so maybe they weren't available. How very imulti- national this post is!
