Your article on mentions that many British actors have little trouble with American accents. I admit that performers like Hugh Laurie do a pretty convincing job when on American TV. However, British actors playing Americans on British TV often do a pretty annoyingly obvious version (FBI agents on Spooks, for instance). One example being that whenever they say a word with the "ar" sound in it they sound like they're pirates. You expect them to start saying "Matey" somewhere in their dialogue too. Just a comment from an American who loves a lot of British TV in spite of the bad accent.
