April 4 to 10, 2021 (20th)

The links for James Gerard and William Brand are wrong. I doubt people who died in the 1950s and 80s respectively acted in this drama!

Hello please could you create a page for Herman Knippenberg, the real person who is portrayed in this show? He is a hero who chased for justice of the victims despite it being somewhat detrimental to his own career and personal life. His wife Angela also has a page. Please create one for him, he is a hero. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thisperson28 (talk • contribs) 18:27, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

French speakers[edit]

Am I the only one who finds Jenna Coleman's french accent atrocious? Don't get me wrong, she apparently speaks good French. But there is no way that she can pass for a native Quebecois French-speaker. And the same goes for her mother who we briefly hear on the phone in episode 7. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.36.230.100 (talk) 08:52, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

COI request edit[edit]

Hello: I work with Living Films and am therefore in a conflict of interest with the articles about the company and its productions. Adhering to the Wikipedia rules for a COI, I am requesting an edit under the filming section in the article about the The Serpent (TV series).

Could we include the text below in bolded font in an effort to improve the detail of the information?

Edit - Filming section

While the series was filmed across nine provinces,^[1] principal photography mostly took place in Thailand's capital Bangkok and in the resort town of Hua Hin in Thailand's Prachuap Khiri Khan Province until late March 2020. Shooting lasted about 10 months, with the production team working with local production house Living Films.^[1]

Thank you for your time and consideration! Best, Livingfilms23 (talk) 01:21, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Done. @Livingfilms23: I've added the text you requested with some minor rewording. The Bangkok Post appears to be a reliable source. I also did some general copyediting. —Bruce1ee ^talk 09:06, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Differences of opinion re: Coleman's accent[edit]

I don't have a source handy to add a rebuttal, but if anyone wants to go hunting for it, while we cited a source saying Coleman's French-Canadian accent was poor, I have seen reviews and online comments by Quebecois people saying her accent was perfect, so there is a difference of opinion. (And in belated response to a comment made earlier, the French-Canadian accent is not a "French" accent. It is a dialect all its own, similar to say how someone attending Oxford and someone from the deep south of the US speak the same language but their accents are vastly different and some words are different. This is just personal opinion, but having spent years listening to the likes of Jean Chretien and Rene Levesque speaking, I think the accent worked.70.73.90.119 (talk) 15:31, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
