  1. MORE OF THIS!
    Having suffered trying to bring up three kids doing mid-Atlantic accents…

  2. I’d rather not strike back and have as little interaction with that lot as possible. They were a mistake, let’s move on.

  3. Australians had the same problem when Eastenders came out, and ‘Estuary English’ was popular over there for a while.

    THAT’LL teach them to export their Australian ‘rising interrogatives’ to OUR kids, courtesy of ‘Neighbours’, lol!

  4. Good, the amount of kids here speaking in Americanisms because of 99% of kids tv being American or watching American youtubers it’s about time for a bit of revenge

    Shame it’s the southern accent though. Let’s get a proper Yorkshire cartoon popular and have American kids saying “eiyup r cocka ars tha doin?”

  5. To be fair a few of the British accents are the best to have anyway.

    A lot of people might hate what RP (Received pronunciation) is associated with, but I think secretly most people wish they could pull off that accent.

  6. How the tables turn. When I was a kid, a girl I used to play with always switched to an American accent when we played pretend.

  7. Meanwhile English kids that just sit and watch YouTube constantly can develop American accents, seen it first hand and it’s weird
