It contributed to uncertainty over whether the Guy Ritchie-directed thriller, which also stars Helen Mirren and Tom Hardy, would get a second series.
But Pierce told the Radio Times: 'My own accent is very soft. Conrad's accent is a million miles away from me.'
A dialect coach recommended he speak with someone whose voice he could use as inspiration.
Pierce explained: 'I told him I needed a Kerry accent, so he gave me the name of a man and I Googled the guy and that was it.
"It was a Kerry accent. And so, I just gave it full tilt.'
Sadly, reviews were mixed.

MARTIN KEMP might regret his comments about his sex life on Loose Women yesterday.
During a debate on scheduling intimacy, he said: 'I don't think you can.
"If I had to look in my diary and it says Thursday night, I'm going to do it – I don't think it works.
"I even feel under pressure if it's a Sunday morning.'
JOHNNY: C4 LACKS IDENTITY
JOHNNY VAUGHAN has slammed Channel 4 for failing to back the 2022 reboot of The Big Breakfast.
The presenter, who fronted the show from 1997 to 2001, said the channel had lost its identity without a flagship early-morning programme.

He also criticised TV execs' obsession with cooking shows, saying they're full of 'boring, middle-aged, white chefs'.
The 2022 reboot of just four episodes, was hosted by Mo Gilligan and AJ Odudu.

Johnny told Mo's podcast he watched the reboot and that the show 'just needs time'.
He added: 'It's meant to be an alternative to dreary daily breakfast shows.
'Without it, I think it's like school without an assembly. You've got to say who you are every day. This is what's on.'
I couldn't agree more.

I've slept with 400 men to show them how to make love… parents have brought their sons to my £250-an-hour sessions
SEX EDUCATION I've slept with 400 men to show them how to make love… parents have brought their sons to my £250-an-hour sessions Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LYING in the arms of the man I'd just had fantastic sex with, I smiled with satisfaction. Somewhere out there was the next woman he'd sleep with, and she'd never know that, thanks to me, he'd been transformed from a clueless virgin into a skilled lover. 2 Intimacy expert Kaly Miller has been a sex surrogate for 15 years Credit: Lorna Roach 2 Kaly's role is similar to that of Joy's on Channel 4 show, Virgin Island But I wasn't in a relationship with this man – I was his sex therapist and surrogate. Over three months, we'd progressed from him starting to get comfortable with physical intimacy, such as hand-holding, hugging and stroking, to more sexual touching. And finally, we'd had sexual intercourse. I've been a sex surrogate for 15 years, and during my career I've supported women with a fear of intimacy, helped a Hollywood actor overcome his sex addiction, and guided couples on how to safely have an open relationship. I don't keep count of the number of clients I've slept with, but it's between 300 and 400. Growing up in São Paulo, Brazil, if you'd told me that one day I'd be teaching people how to enjoy sex, I would never have believed it. As a young woman, I was comfortable with my sexuality, but never questioned what I wanted or needed sexually. I moved to London for university at 21, then married a few years later and had four children. Running a successful events company with my husband, I enjoyed a comfortable lifestyle. But working 18-hour days soon burned me out, and I just wasn't happy. When I was 35, I ended my marriage, leaving my husband and the company, while I moved into a one-bedroom council flat with our children. I'm a sex coach, women always ask what to do if their man won't talk about sex and it's NEVER a good sign I went on to qualify as a masseuse, working with athletes and actors. I enjoyed my job, but wasn't earning enough to give my children the life I wanted for them. So, in 2013, I invested £3,000 in a surrogate partner therapy course, after seeing an ad in a local paper. I thought it sounded like a great opportunity to further my massage skills, but on the first day, I was shocked to learn I'd be expected to have sex with clients. I thought about quitting, but decided – with trepidation – to continue with the course because I'd paid so much money for it. I'd studied tantric sex in my spare time, so I was more comfortable with my sexuality than ever, but I didn't know if I'd actually be able to go through with sleeping with someone. Three months later, I met my first client, a single man in his 60s who was a virgin. My initial thought was: 'I can't do this, he's the same age as my dad!' But when I asked him why he'd come to the session, his response changed everything. He explained that his brother had passed away recently, and he realised he didn't want to die without knowing what love felt like. Men came to see me to overcome issues including being unable to get an erection, premature ejaculation, fear of intimacy and body dysmorphia Kaly Miller It helped me understand that there was a genuine need for sex surrogates and there was nothing sleazy about it. I spent a month focusing on helping this man feel comfortable with his body, and teaching him how to touch a woman, before we had sex. It felt so natural, as we'd established a trusting, loving bond and it made me realise how much impact a surrogate can have. He went on to have a relationship with someone for the first time, and was so grateful. How is masturbation beneficial for health? Masturbation is nothing to be embarrassed about - after all, it's physically and mentally good for you! Just like sex, masturbation - and likely an ending of orgasm - is healthy. Masturbation releases endorphins which boost mood and can alleviate depressive symptoms and cortisol, the stress hormone. It can help you relax, reduce stress and help you sleep better - which has a number of health benefits in itself. In one study, published in the Frontiers in Public Health, almost half of men and women who masturbated before bed said they either got better sleep quality, or fell asleep quicker. Spring Cooper is a social researcher with academic qualifications in public health, health promotion, and sexuality, said: "For women, masturbation can help prevent cervical infections and urinary tract infections through the process of 'tenting', or the opening of the cervix that occurs as part of the arousal process. "Tenting stretches the cervix, and thus the cervical mucous. "This enables fluid circulation, allowing cervical fluids full of bacteria to be flushed out. "Masturbation can lower risk of type-2 diabetes (though this association may also be explained by greater overall health), reduce insomnia through hormonal and tension release, and increase pelvic floor strength through the contractions that happen during orgasm." For men, there is evidence that climaxing may help to reduce the risk of prostate cancer - "probably by giving the prostate a chance to flush out potential cancer-causing agents," says Spring. Though the benefits of masturbation are not the most scientifically studied, there's certainly no harm in doing it. For the next five years, I worked under supervision – there was always a qualified sex surrogate present at all my client meetings, including during sex, and they would give me feedback and advise me if I was unsure. Men came to see me to overcome issues including being unable to get an erection, premature ejaculation, fear of intimacy and body dysmorphia. Women came to overcome trauma after giving birth, learn how to orgasm and to conquer their fear of penetration. I also treated people who had difficulties after physical and sexual abuse. THE NAKED ROOM Eventually, I set up my own clinic, The Naked Room. My four adult children and parents know and fully support what I do. They all came to cheer me on when I won Somatic Sexologist of the Year at the Sexual Freedom Awards in 2022. And though some friends were initially sceptical, they soon came round. Before accepting clients, I meet them on Zoom so I can find out why they want to see me and also observe their body language, in order to spot unsuitable people who think they can just turn up and have sex with me. One time, a man was naked. I turned off my camera and told him that's not what I'm here for. Then, once they've completed a consent form and paperwork, my prices start from £250 for a one-hour in-person session, to £1,250 for a day session of five hours. If a client is a virgin, the ultimate aim is for us to have sex. If they're female, I can pass them on to a trusted male sex surrogate when they're ready. Every client has to provide a recent STI test and I always use condoms. I also work with couples, although I don't touch them – I coach them on how to touch each other. I have no intention of stopping anytime soon – I feel privileged to help people overcome their issues Kaly Miller I insist on at least three sessions, because this isn't a quick process, and a maximum of 10 to make sure they don't form a romantic attachment with me. Before meeting a client, I prepare by going to the gym or doing yoga, and I meditate on my commute. Since I turned 50, I'm conscious I need look my best, so I see a dermatologist, and of course I regularly do kegel exercises to keep my pelvic floor muscles tight. There have been many memorable moments over the years. When one client saw my vagina – the first he'd ever seen – he was blown away. 'It's marvellous!' he said. 'I love the colour and the texture.' I was thinking: 'I've had sex for 30 years and not once has a partner admired me the way this guy has.' Then there was the man with autism, who I helped have sex for the first time. His parents used to bring him to the sessions with me, and were so grateful. His dad said to me: 'Thank you for making him experience life as a man outside of his challenges.' Those sorts of moments are humbling and make me realise how much I'm helping people. The 10 most-searched sex positions in the UK The Eagle is searched for, on average, 150,730 times in the UK every month. Eagle 69 Missionary Cowgirl Reverse Cowgirl Standing Lotus Spooning Doggy Style Pretzel My job has also helped me realise that sex can be incredibly powerful, rather than shallow or mediocre. I'm currently single, but I've had relationships since I became a sex surrogate. I've learned to separate my professional and personal life to avoid falling into 'work mode' and educating partners on being the ideal lover. I'm always transparent with a partner about my work and, so far, they've all been open-minded and unfazed by the fact I'll be sleeping with other men, and that I often get aroused while doing so. I have no intention of stopping anytime soon – I feel privileged to help people overcome their issues. Everyone who wants to enjoy great sex should be able to, and I'm happy to play a part in helping them achieve that. Visit

My marriage to Spencer Matthews nearly didn't happen admits Vogue Williams as she reveals secret dating tip for singles
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HER husband may raise money for charity and his brother is related to the Royal Family, but when it comes to the in-laws, Vogue Williams insists she is their favourite. The TV presenter married Spencer Matthews in 2018, and his brother James wed Princess Kate's younger sister Pippa Middleton the year before. 5 TV presenter Vogue Williams is a hit with her husband's family Credit: David Titlow - Commissioned by The Sun Fabulous magazine 5 Perfect match Vogue and Spencer on their wedding day in 2018 Credit: Instagram But in an exclusive interview, Vogue, 39, says: 'I am a firm favourite with my in-laws. I would say I'm even above the siblings.' Hers is a marriage that very nearly did not happen, though, because Vogue admits she once thought that Spencer, 36, was a 'sociopath'. He might now be a clean-living marathon runner, but in 2017, when they met on Channel 4 reality ski show The Jump, he was known for being a heavy-drinking party boy from Made In Chelsea. Vogue says: 'I kind of met him with a preconceived idea, and I was like, 'I'm not going to like him' because I thought he was a sociopath. 'But after I met him, I loved his personality straight away . . . he was so sound, but I was being really good at being single and I wanted to stay single, so I thought, 'He's going to be a really good friend' — that's the first thing I thought.' Fast forward eight years and the couple are now parents to Theodore, six, Gigi, four, and three-year-old Otto. 'I was feral' But in her new memoir, Big Mouth, Vogue reveals how life wasn't always easy for her growing up in County Dublin, with her parents Sandra and Freddie separating when she was five. And speaking to The Sun on Sunday, she explains how she found it tough when her own marriage to her first husband, Westlife star Brian McFadden, ended in divorce in 2017 — because she had never been single before. Vogue says: 'I was just kind of a relationship girl, and in a way I regret that. 'I was in a relationship from when I was 18 for six-and-a-half years, and then another relationship, and then after my first marriage ended, I made the conscious decision to try to be single because I'd never actually been on my own. Vogue Williams new book release 'I needed to be single. 'I absolutely hated it at the start, and then I loved it. 'I felt so in control of everything, and I was doing it on my own and I really enjoyed it. 'If you're a single girl in London, check out Battersea Park on a Saturday morning, and you can thank me later!' But Vogue admits she initially struggled to play the dating game. Laughing loudly, she says: 'I'm kind of a frigid. 'Before I met Spen, I'd meet someone nice and I'd kiss them, and I thought I'd be nice and invite them back to the party that was happening at my house. My parents were very strict, so we were always trying to find ways around that. Vogue Williams 'And we'd get back to the party, and they'd turn around to me and go, 'Will we go to your room?'. And I'd be like, 'Why? The party is here'. I never clicked that they were never coming back just for the party, but for other stuff.' However, Vogue's single days did not last long. She and Spencer tied the knot in June 2018 and she was firmly welcomed into the family fold by his multi-millionaire parents. Since then, Vogue has landed DJ gigs on Virgin Radio and Heart, and fronted segments on ITV's Lorraine and Channel 4's Steph's Packed Lunch. Meanwhile, Spencer is now sober, runs his own successful booze-free drinks brand, CleanCo, and last year ran 30 desert marathons in 30 days — all on sand. It set a new Guinness World Record and raised more than £500,000 for Global's Make Some Noise, which supports small charities across the UK. Between them, the power couple have more than two million followers on social media and their careers are going from strength to strength. 5 Vogue and Spencer in the Jordanian desert after Spencer's 30 marathons in 30 days last summer Credit: Jam Press 5 Pippa Middleton with Vogue and Spencer Credit: PA Vogue also reveals that her in-laws — landowner and entrepreneur David Matthews and his wife Jane — are role models who 'have been together for ever' and are still 'really happy'. She appears to have everything in life that could make her happy, too — but she says she has often struggled with the notoriously cut-throat showbiz world because she has never been 'cool'. Vogue explains: 'I think, in this industry in particular, there is nothing wrong if you are not in the cool gang. 'Let's say Kate Moss — she was in the cool gang back in the day, and I just feel I wouldn't have been, and I'm OK with that. 'Some people think that they are really cool and wouldn't give you the time of day. 'Sometimes they'd say hi to you at an event, and sometimes they wouldn't, and I've got to a point in my life where I really don't care if I'm not cool. 'I'm just grand where I am and I have got really good friends who are still in my life since I was 12, that I made when I was in secondary school, and they are actually what's most important in life. "My family are really amazing, and who I spend most of my time with. 'Spencer was raging' 'Then I come across people I love, and loads of people in the industry that I meet — they're sound. 'I was on Paloma Faith's podcast the other day and was really nervous because it's Paloma, but she was just fing hilarious and brilliant. 'She's pretty cool, so maybe I've got a foot in the door there!' Vogue has never fully left her Irish roots. For her book, she enjoyed reflecting on her life growing up. She says: 'I loved going back to my childhood and going back through all the things my sister Amber and I used to do. 'My parents were very strict, so we were always trying to find ways around that. 'There was a swamp around the corner that we always wanted to swim in, but we weren't allowed. 'We'd go to our friends' house up the road and their parents didn't give a crap what they did. 'So, we would go to their house and put their clothes on and swim in the swamp. 5 Vogue's in-laws David and Jane Matthews Credit: i-Images 'Then we would go back and put our own clothes on and act like nothing had happened. I was feral.' Soon, her own kids will be able to follow in her footsteps because she and Spencer are hoping to spend more time near her home town of Howth, Dublin, in a house the couple bought last year. Vogue calls it their 'forever home', and they have put their apartment overlooking the River Thames up for sale, too. They first listed it a year ago and have recently slashed the price by £1.3million to £3.9million. Vogue says: 'I like to take the kids home as much as I can — I want them to have friends in Ireland, so that they always want to go back, and they enjoy spending time there. 'I want them to know Irish phrases if they can. 'They got the free Irish passports, so they've got to work for it a little bit. 'They wouldn't give Spenny one and he was raging.' Chances are that Vogue made the decision to move because — even though she struggles to admit it — she likes being in control. She says: 'I think when it comes to wearing the trousers between Spen and I, it shifts. 'I don't think anyone wants to wear the trousers full-time, do they? 'I don't. My therapist did tell me I was controlling though, so I fing fired him!' But she admits: 'He was right — I do like controlling things.' It's clearly a quality that her in-laws admire.

Olivia Attwood on her facelift plans, the popular surgery she'd NEVER have & why she keeps her money separate from Brad
The Love Island icon also hit back at trolls and reveals her thoughts on the Kardashians' makeovers LIV IT UP Olivia Attwood on her facelift plans, the popular surgery she'd NEVER have & why she keeps her money separate from Brad IN a time when celebrities are more sanitised than ever, it's refreshing to speak to a star who isn't afraid to say what she thinks – even if it offends. It's that unfiltered, straight-talking, no-nonsense attitude that helped Olivia Attwood, 34, win over the nation on Love Island in 2017, and propel her to the top of TV commissioners' most-wanted list. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 Olivia Attwood is at the top of TV commissioners' most-wanted list Credit: MARK HAYMAN 7 Olivia Attwood with husband Bradley Dack Credit: instagram 'I don't take myself too seriously,' she admits. 'Sometimes, the problem online is that the nuance is lost. I'm writing something, cackling away because it's like, 'wink wink', but then it reads differently. Then it's all: 'She attacked someone'. And it was just a little joke. 'Guests leave my podcast saying: 'I'm worried about X and Y', and it's nothing controversial. There's a culture of trying to please everyone by saying nothing. But the only person you're selling short is yourself. 'It'd be very easy for me to change the way I approach things, and zip it. But should I change everything and be boring because a handful of trolls have got in a twist? I don't think so,' she laughs. 'I'm happy to be Marmite. It works. I've given them something to talk about. It's much easier for me to be myself, plus it's so much more fun.' 'The Kardashians' bodies are not created in the gym' True to form, Olivia has never shied away from discussing the work she's had done, either – two boob jobs, chin liposuction, plus regular tweakments of Botox and fillers. Does she think other celebrities should be equally open? 'This is such a difficult conversation, because I don't want to tell people that they owe us their medical records. However, I think when people monetise things, like they're on Ozempic but selling a weight-loss plan, or they've done something to their skin and are pushing a face cream, it's disingenuous. 'I like openness. I always say that if you look at me and something looks too good, then it's probably not natural.' As for the Kardashians, who recently hit the headlines for Kris' reported facelift, and Kylie Jenner revealing details of her breast augmentation on social media, Olivia has mixed feelings. Olivia Attwood reveals she's landed huge ITV role on This Morning after Loose Women success 'I'm all for honesty, but it feels like it's a bit fashionable now to be an open book. I wish we'd had that energy from them years ago,' she says. 'Kylie came out and said about her boobs, and I was like: 'I've been talking about my breasts for the past 10 years.' I like the Kardashians, this is not me bashing them, but it's too little, too late for me. 'We know Kylie's breasts are fake. We knew she had lip fillers when she was selling those lip kits. What about talking about lipo and BBLs [Brazilian bum lifts]? Their bodies are not created in the gym.' Olivia is back discussing surgery on the second series of her ITV documentary, The Price Of Perfection. During the show, she follows different people's nip/tuck journeys, from TOWIE star Charlie King's nose job, to The Traitors' Amanda Lovett's facelift. 'It is full-on and we've got to make a decision about how much gruesome stuff we leave in,' she says. 'I knew going into the shows that I was fine with blood, and I've watched a lot of surgeries online. I find it more interesting than disgusting. But it's the smell as they cauterise the flesh, which is basically burning it to stop it bleeding.' In fact, despite having a self-confessed 'pancake bum', watching a BBL in Turkey put Olivia off wanting the surgery. 'I would definitely have a facelift in the future, as they can look amazing,' she says. 'I'll have my breasts done again, because they're only guaranteed for 10 years and, if I have kids, I'll have to redo them. BBL is the only one I wouldn't do, because the risk is too much. It's one of the surgeries that has the highest revision rate. 7 Olivia has never shied away from discussing the work she's had done Credit: MARK HAYMAN 'Watching surgeries makes you appreciate what you're putting your body through. I've minimised breast augmentation [in the past], but when you actually see it happening, it sobers you up to the reality of surgery. I think that it's probably given me a bit of a reality check. I love cosmetic intervention and I think it can be life-changing. But surgery is surgery. It's not like getting your nails done or whatever. It's still a big risk and I don't think we should trivialise that.' When leaving Love Island, contestants are often offered free boob jobs or surgery, but Olivia says she has been scrupulous about never accepting free treatments. 'I know I'm lucky to have the ability to fund my own procedures. But I learned really quickly coming out of Love Island that even if it's a hair colour or make-up, when you take something for free, you put yourself into a strange power dynamic. You are recommending that person [or product] and you can't really retract that. 'I know first-hand people who have had a free boob job and it's gone tits-up, quite literally, and they can't publicly tell that story.' 'Being a woman is hard enough, I don't need a man sticking his nose in' Money is a topic Olivia is keen to discuss, joking that she pays a 'hot-girl tax' when she has work done. 'That's tongue-in-cheek,' she says. 'I'm not implying if you don't have work done, then you're not hot. 'But we do have a female tax in general. Colouring your hair, waxing, nails, make-up. . . That s**t is expensive, and I don't think men realise that. Being a woman costs a lot.' Olivia married professional footballer Bradley Dack, 31, two years ago in a lavish London ceremony. Does the Gillingham midfielder ever complain about her spending too much on her appearance? 'No, he knows! We don't have those conversations. Actually, I moan when I see him buying another set of golf clubs. I'm like: 'What a waste of money!' So, I'm a complete hypocrite,' she laughs. 7 Olivia before she had lip filler Credit: SUPPLIED 'But he does pull me back to reality. If I say: 'F***, I look old today,' he'll be quick to say: 'Please!' "Also, it's boring. For me, it would be very easy to become so obsessed with the way I look. But Brad will say: 'There are so many more things interesting about you, Liv, than whether you've got a wrinkle.' I love that he does that, because it reminds me not to get sucked in.' Would he ever tell her to stop getting work done? Olivia shakes her head. 'No, how I want to look is an individual journey. I don't do things for him. If I don't feel sexy, everything will have a knock-on effect. Although, if he said it from a wellness point of view, of course I'd listen. But I wouldn't have married someone [who wanted to get] that involved. Being a woman is hard enough, I don't need a man sticking his nose in. He can worry about football and I can make the call on what I need to look good.' As well as deciding how she looks for herself, financial independence is another priority for Olivia. 'I went to an affluent private school, and I remember a close friend whose dad left their mum for his secretary. Suddenly, the big house and the cars were gone, and there's a 50-year-old woman who doesn't know how to pay a bill and can't access their bank account. Watching the rug be pulled out from under people in real time was horrendous. 'Women should absolutely be able to stay at home if they want to. I applaud women who are fulfilled by that. But financial freedom is something that we should always prioritise, because you can't say you're in an equal relationship if you don't have the power to leave when you want to.' 'Get the man, get the handbag, but don't quit your job' She recounts the story of one woman who told her that she'd found messages on her footballer boyfriend's phone that proved he was cheating. 'I said: 'You have to go,' and she said: 'Where? It's not my house, it's not my car. Everything is in his name.' You do not want to be in that spot. 'And I know it's easier said than done. I speak from such a privileged position and I love my job, but I want young women to be educated. Yes, get the man, get the handbag, but don't quit your job. Brad and I have separate bank accounts and a joint one for bills. Everything is very transparent. He knows what I earn, I know what he earns. We know where the money goes. You need to make sure you are aligned with money and want to spend it on the same things. 'Women don't like talking about finances. I don't think we should be afraid. Don't let men mansplain us out of finances. I educated myself a lot in the last two years about money, tax structure and investment.' Olivia and Bradley have also been discussing when to start a family. 'I don't get annoyed with people asking me,' she says. 'I feel like I've entered into this relationship with the public where everything is for sale! I had my wedding on telly. I'm very open on social media, so I think it's natural that people will be curious. 7 On Love Island in 2017 with Georgia Harrison Credit: shuttershock 'In general, should we be constantly asking women about children? No, but I put myself in a different box. It's like these celebrities that sell their whole relationship, then they break up and ask for privacy. No, absolutely not. We are invested,' she laughs. 'I'm very comfortable with the narrative I've created, and I'm proud to be a voice for women in the same position. I know I want a family, I'm in my early 30s and fertility doesn't last forever. But my life is really full right now and I'm enjoying smashing work. Having a baby would change things, and that's something a lot of ambitious women are afraid to talk about. Whether we like it or not, having a baby will affect me in a different way to Brad. 'And I don't half-arse anything in my life – I'm not going to half-arse being a parent, so I'll do it when I'm ready. If it happened, I'd embrace it, but it would be hard to pause right now, as things are going so well.' She's absolutely right. There's another series of Olivia Attwood's Bad Boyfriends on the way, along with the fourth series of Getting Filthy Rich. Her podcast, Olivia Attwood's So Wrong It's Right, is growing, and she also has her weekly Kiss radio show with Pete Wicks, plus her role as an ambassador for Maybelline. Then there's the subject of Love Island. With rumours that presenter Maya Jama is preparing to step down, surely Olivia is a natural successor? 'I don't know if that's true,' she says. 'Poor Maya is probably thinking: 'Why is she out there auditioning for my role?!' I have no information about Maya stepping down. For all I know, she'll stay for the next 10 years. I think she's f**king great, but if and when she didn't want to do it, I'd throw my hat in the ring. 'Love Island is the best thing I ever did. That show changed my life. I was lost and it redirected me. No one should have any expectation a reality show can do that. But for me, it worked out well.'
