How similar is the Italian accent to the Polish accent (when speaking English)?

My friend (who's been to both Poland and Italy) says that Italian people speaking English and Polish people speaking English sound quite similar. Is this true?

You can check here for yourself, but she has trouble understanding him and he her. My favourite bit is from 8,07 onwards, she is nice about his mistakes and I like her for this. I feel bad for him though, he is having a horrid time.

Well in his opinion he can, he is speaking to her in English, a little bit anyway, how much do you need to know to say that you speak a language?

I always wondered about that, people say that they can speak English, French, German, Polish and Russian etc. on their facebook pages but how much of it do they really speak and how well.

where is it saying that? maybe he was expecting Polish interpreter at the interview, they couldn't find one and assumed his English is ok got himk her. You will not find out the real story but other thing is that she's hot!
