I think her accent is, like she says, what made her stand out from the crowd. Since seeing her as Cho, I could never imagine an English girl playing the part. Her being Scottish somehow just feels right and it makes her character all the more special because her voice really is unique. And she's incredibly natural. But Scottish is British; it's a country in the UK too! If it weren't then British would just be another word for English and we all know those two phrases aren't interchangable.

Yeah Moody's Irish and again that seems to fit. I think before they said Jo specifies nationality, like Hagrid and McGonagall are also Scottish. I don't think she did this with Cho but to me, her sounding the way she does just feels right. A Cho with an English accent would sound plain in comparison.

Sorry, I just realised how much I bang on about Katie. But she really really is my favourite 'newcomer', I'd go so far as to say my favourite actress in GoF. She really is a dark-horse in terms of acting. Extremely natural and just so beautiful. I hope those haters are kicking themselves now, I really do.
