American TV series get a bit muddled with accents. There are lots of Australian actors playing English characters... but they don't sound remotely English.
Penelope's father on Lost? The SAS guy on V? And countless Aussie's on Chuck?
How about Charlie from Lost? He's sort of got a Manchester accent. But his brother is called Liam (Irish) and has a Southern English accent. Confusing? His Mum is called Megan (Welsh). That's an interesting, confusing and non-credible family.
