I was thinking about this today. Rugby from The Christmas Toy has a very distinctive accent, but I can't put my finger on what it is exactly. Anyone know?

Suprised nobody else replied to this, or has even noticed Rugby's unmistakable foreign accent! Then again, I feel like I'm the only one who likes TCT.

I also like The Christmas Toy that and Muppet Musicians Of Bremen are two of my favorite Muppet specials, and I know what you are talking about but I really can't explain it.
