And the UK's accents... HERE
If your only exposure to either is the media or television/film -- you probably haven't heard that many accents. Since broadcasters and television actors tend for the most part to do a generic accent.

3. This is just...bizarre and fascinating All Star Cast Reads/Performs The Mueller Report So you don't have to.
Jon Lithgow is doing a rather good job of playing Trump with Joel Grey as Sessions.
ETA: It's rather amusing...depending on how dark your sense of humor is. Let's just say, that the US and the UK are in a dead heat on who can out political satirize the other one.
I remember a European telling me last year that we can't impeach an elected President. I said, "no, actually, we can. It's allowable, it's just difficult. See Nixon and Watergate, the impeachment proceedings against Clinton (for getting blow-jobs from one of his intern - yes, really and they were consensual apparently), and various judges and senators...they couldn't do it for the senators (because the trial is in the senate) but did sucessfully get a senator, a President who no one remembers."
ETA2: Here's the article on it. Star Studded Cast Performs Live Reading of Mueller Report
The cast of the event also includes Justin Long, Piper Perabo, Michael Shannon and Zachary Quinto, among others. Sigourney Weaver, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Mark Hamill will also make appearances.
Law Works is an organization catering to bipartisan voices to make sure that the public is educated on the Mueller investigation among other issues in American politics. Their goal is to share resources and stories from experts to shed light on important developments based on the rule of law, making sure that neither Congress nor the American people consider themselves above the law.
"The Investigation: A Search for the Truth in Ten Acts" is a project from playwright, screenwriter and actor Robert Schenkkan, who won a Pulitzer Prize in 1992 for "The Kentucky Cycle" and a Tony award for "All the Way" in 2014. He has also picked up Emmy nominations for his HBO limited series "The Pacific" in 2010.
The live reading's executive producers are Susan Disney Lord, Abigail Disney and Timothy Disney.
Pay close attention to who the executive producers are. That's right - Disney.
Walt Disney's neices and nephews...they are the kids of Disney's brother's son, Roy Disney, CEO of Disney Corporation.
Oh take away quote...
President: "I was allowed to do whatever I wanted during the campaign".
LOL -- that does explain a lot, doesn't it?
