Best Answer

Yes

The British accent is very distinctive

Further

The above should perhaps read, British accents are distinctive. There are great many of them, more than anywhere else in the English-speaking world, as you'd expect since "England" is where English originated, and English is the everyday language for most of the rest of the British Isles, including the Republic of Ireland.
