Ugg, most British accents are ugly as sin. There is not a singular accent, even in a relatively small area. Some British accents are so messy they need to be subtitled on TV.
The one we most hear outside of the UK is often is the 'Received Pronunciation' accent and the accent taught for broadcasting also known as the "BBC accent". We get a bit of the lower-class London for Movies, but it is very toned down. Or old cockney, if you want to hear more of the real thing watch 'Eastenders', a soap set in London's east-end in the late 20th century.
I like the Kiwi Accent, especially the way women say 'yes'. ;)

Yes, when I got older, I noticed that there was a lot of variety with British accents! There's definitely a white trash sort of dialect, too, like our white trash dialect of our Southern accent. I am probably 100% misusing dialect and accent right now...
Do you have a youtube sample or something? (:

Humm, try watching "The Almighty Johnsons" it is a Kiwi show about people being manifestations of the old Norse gods, a fun show.
The women on it hot too.
I think it is on Netflix or Amazon.
