"I've noticed that British actors playing American characters in American
shows usually have quite good American accents; but British actors playing
American characters in British shows frequently have very bad "American"
accents.
From what I've read, American actors playing British characters in American
shows frequently have very bad "British" accents.
Do American actors playing British characters in British shows, usually have
good British accents? Or is this situation asymmetrical?"
