just look at... dude that plays house (I'm totally blanking right now). English actor, does an american accent on tv so people know he is teh good guy. You have to use every subtle clue you have to your advantage
Hugh Laurie, and he's definitely not the only one. Simon Baker (The Mentalist), Hugh Jackman (Wolverine, and much more), and others. Those are just from the top of my mind.
yeah, its defo a stereotypical English accent, i should know since i am english lol, i literally said to myself (when i first realised there was gonna be a british guy on we're alive) "ohhh christ no! its a stereotype!" and it was even worse when i found out his name was pippin...ohh the shame.
It's like a British accent from someone whose only exposure to British accents was Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins.
