Sad to see Keith Barron. A terrific actor. RIP

Maria Aitken pronounces " Coward " as " Card " - how odd.

[@julianwynne8705]

It's not 'odd' to the ears of a native British-English speaker (which I deduce you are not). Aitken's idiolect is a mixed bag: for example at 9.23 she says 'gonna' - which has only been part of the americanisation of (excuse me, no other term will do) educated rather-upper-middle-class British pronunciation: to go with 'card' for 'coward,' Aitken's pronunciation of 'going to' should/would, until only twenty years ago, have been 'geng to'...
