      British actors can do American accents so well, Americans are shocked that famous British actors are actually British.

      It probably helps that: 1 we have lots of US dramas & movies on Brit tv, 2 Brit acting schools do lots of teaching of accents.

      I remember Hugh Laurie was interviewed about this re: House and said Brits are pickier about accents too

      bc in the UK accents are an extremely powerful class signifier to a degree not really true here

      hence Shaw writing Henry Higgins as able to deduce someone's life story from their accent

      it's priming too, Brits who knew Laurie as Bertie Wooster heard House's accent as "fake" but Americans didn't

      fwiw I think Americans are just unused to hearing badly faked American accents bc we get the cream of the crop here

      there's Hugo Weaving's famously weird R's as Agent Smith (which worked for the character)

      those Rs are a challenge, it's why Brit actors seem to gravitate toward really exaggerated non-rhotic American accents
