Here's a trailer for ITV'S rip off of Buffy called Demons. It features a Brit doing a US accent...poorly. At least, that's what we Brits think.

This was the only thing I could find, it's not much to go on. Sorry.
                                             

If God exists, why did he make me an atheist? Thats His first mistake.

The guy who was attacked by a monkey thing?  I ddn't even realize he was trying to do an American accent  :teddyr:

What do you think of Amanda Tapping trying to do a British (?) accent?

Posh...like all Americans who do Brit accents.

But it's fine.

Although, I do tend to be more lenient on these things than most Brits.

Me too, I'm not patriotic at all in any possible way. I just don't like being associated with some goofy, pompous stereotype.  :smile:

One of the Reasons why Renee Zellweger's popular in the Bridget Jones films is that she manages to do a Brit accent with out sounding posh.

Well, the guy who says "Your daddy's name was Van Helsing" does sound American, though it's just a short clip.

The primary narrator can't possibly be trying to do an American accent... can he?  :question:
