Like most people - I think it's quite unattractive. A recent survey showed that accents from the Midlands, Liverpool and Manchester are the accents people find the least trustworthy, where those from Yorkshire, Scotland, and (perhaps surprisingly) London are the most trustworthy. Unfortunately there are regional British accents you can get away with anywhere, and those you can't, and each accent has different connotations. Ever noticed how when they're trying to advertise household products, or appeal to the everyday person, it'll be a Yorkshire accent, or maybe a Scottish one, and when they want to sell you something seen as "sophisticated" or upmarket, they bring out the flat "BBC English" (unnaccented as some would say)? Times change though - 50years ago an Irish accent in Britain would have got you instantly barred from many places, whereas now it's associated with (and used in advertising to denote) someone who's friendly and down-to-earth. Be curious to know what the Brummies think of their own accent, as a lot of people will try to hide an accent if they move elsewhere...

Yes, I agree with you. I think it is just a stereo typical image of British people. I have even heard Northern actors and Scottish actors put on a Southern accent. It sounds really false. They should try and vary the accents.

They have their own accents, yes.\n\nTo the untrained American ear, it sounds like an Australian accent, yes.\n\nBut it has its own characterisitics.

Well as there are several different British accents, it's difficult to answer that. The stereotypical English accent(Queen's English) is annoying. That's the one that sounds like they've got a stick up their butt and who seem to talk down to people. But, being English, I can't say I'm too incensed with any of the British accents. I like some Irish accents though!(scottish accents are horrible!)

There are many products that teach proper English pronunciation but there is only one that I know of that is specifically tailored to native Malay speakers.\n\nAccentMaster.com (my company) has developed easy to use English pronunciation software that is customized for each different accent.  After all a Spanish accent is very different from a Malay accent, they must be corrected differently.\n\nPlease see more at our website and contact me if you would like any more information.\n\nSteve Bo

Some people's accents are very malleable.  These people are usually great language learners and very good mimics.  Actors, for example.

Just as Americans love British English, Many Brits love to hear the American dialect because it's different than what they speak. Americans DO have an accent, and it varies by geographical area just like in England. Someone from the Lake District isn't going to sound like someone in London ... just like someone from Boston isn't going to sound like someone from Texas ... \n\nAlso, based on geography, the dialect changed with the influx of new immigrants into the USA after our independance from England. The East coast has alot of mixed European dialects mixed in with "English" and the south has alot of "Spanish/French" mixed in with English. \n\nBut yes, British accents are Hot, and Scottish accents are even hotter ... just look at Ewan Mcgreggor ;)

The United States, Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand.  All of these places have the nicest accents and you will learn to speak like a native.  There is NO SUCH THING as a "true" English accent.  EVERY English accent is a true one.  Every native speaker of English is a true speaker of English.  To say that English in London is the only "true" English accent is unmitigated arrogance.
