Dear Jansy,

you may notice that Noel Coward collaborated a lot with
Peter Ustinov who was Russian, so he could easily learn
russian accent.

In the Memoirs by Ustinov there were some not very respectful
and very imprecise remarks concerning Nabokov (for
example, he remarked that the uncle - and not the father -
of VN was killed).

All the best

Sergei Soloviev
