Mobland: accent debacle

I saw a trailer for the TV series "Mobland" in which Pierce Brosnan plays an Irish character with a questionable choice of accent, which has baffled me because this man is from Ireland. Granted he moved away when he was young, surely there's some part of him that can recall how to do his native accent. This man is from Navan for Christ sake.

LOL

My late wife was German but later in life a friend's very German mother (visiting from Spandau) told her she spoke German like a tourist ( perhaps because she now almost exclusively spoke English for years).

But when she lost her temper, she spoke perfect German!
