Summary
Fallout: London has pulled in yet another big name, although this one iseven more unexpected than Neil Newbon. Now, it turns out the fan game has secured a cameo from John Bercow - the former Speaker of the House of Commons. Or, perhaps better known as the guy who yelled “Order!” a lot.
As spotted byVG24/7, this casting was revealed in the Fallout: London Discord server. Here, project lead Dean Carter gave us a snippet of Bercow bellowing out lines as his Fallout: London character - and obviously getting his iconic catchphrase in there too.
John Bercow Is In Fallout: London
“Imagine being Fallout: London and feeling so lucky having all the talented voice actors on the team. But then boosting it further with the fact that we have 2 Doctor Who actors as VAs… then Neil Newbon messages us and also wants a role,” says Carter, speaking in the Discord.
“But the cherry on the top? Who better to represent our mods version of the Speaker of the House, than a Robot version. Voice by John Bercow himself.”
As per the announcement, it sounds like Bercow will be taking up his mantle as Speaker. He held this role in real life between 2009 and 2019, before being succeeded by Lindsay Hoyle. His time in the job was so memorable, however, that he’s who many of us imagine when we think about the Speaker trying to get the Commons to behave itself - no one screamed “Order!” like he did.
It remains to be seen how many lines Bercow gets in the mod, but we’ll likely find out for ourselves very soon. After beinghit with a delay over the Fallout 4 next-gen update, the team has revealed thatFallout: London is almost ready to launch once again. You will, however, have todowngrade your game to the pre-next-gen patch build, as the Fallout: London devs say that the latest version “isn’t stable”.
