Even as a Londoner, I found the cockney Orcs and their 'breeevers' rather amusing. The accent was overly done in a vulgar way, and I can't think of an alternative.<P>Frankly, they could have spoken more gruffly and unclearly, but in this film they had many more lines than Ugluk in the first film, where the dialogue was incidental. Here, it mattered so it had to be clearer and I think cockney was a decent option really.
