huge big crow-bar separation there love... HP would be British and very proper British at that....
Where it's get a little more blury is when you start talking about Irish and A good cokney... then your getting a bit closer to blurred lines...
Irish is a bit more rough round the edges hard "r's" I think it sounds sexier personally Scottish does run a close second though then Brits and just line them up after that how ever they come...

yeah for the Mc!!!!!! my last name is weird looking that people have a hard time pronouncing...
never read HP but all the actors in that film are using very proper lill English accents.
funny you mention all of that though. My friend that did her studies in England said there was this all boys school some where that she would see from this garden that she spent a lot of time in that was the building that inspired the image of Hog warts. She said it was beautiful. Just a random note.

Okay so i just have to know, is it just me or does any one else in here pick up accents like mad? I'm terrible for it. Set me infront a telly with some folks going on in some accent and I'm off for the rest of the bloody day caring on like a Mick or Brit or what ever the film happens to be based in. I confuse the hell out of my co-workers. It's a sad sad state to be in. Cause it's not like I can control it or anything? I won't even really know I'm doing it till someone points it out to me. I feel like a total git!!! An of course watching On the Edge about an hour ago didn't help much. Pry be dreaming in a bloody accent tonight. *s* well guess it wouldn't be all bad if beacuse of all of it Mr Murphy made a small cameo? Maybe this could be a good thing after all. *lol* Don't worry, when I'm talking to someone with an accent, I pick it up really easily and respond in the accent, I don't know why but me and my brother do it! LIke when I saw intermission, I kept on talking with somewhat of an Irish accent! but you're not the only one who does that! ;D
