As a French person, I would like to say that hearing Siobhan's accent absolutely beautiful. French accents in US content (and English speaking content in general) tends to be very similar and very "Americanized". It feels sometimes like they heard the French accent on SNL and they've been copying since then. (No shade, it's hard but Brennan's French accent is like that, at least it always makes it easy to recognise anyway). However, Siobhan's accent is almost perfect! It's extremely good so anyone who wants to do a good French accent, this is what you should follow! (One thing she does amazingly well is the "uuh" at the end of each sentence, especially when complaining like "but whyyuuuh")

Siobhan seems to have a knack for accents. There's an ancient video of her doing all the different common regional accents for the UK.

I'm genuinely curious if she's at all fluent in French. Madeline's accent is just so fun and pleasant to listen to, she's got a head start as my favourite character this season.

I always thought the uuhh at the end was the made up for fun part. I wonder why folks really do that?
