Answer 2

Possibly because the most famous British people are the royal family, all of whom speak with very posh accents. The same is true of politicians such as Tony Blair and David Cameron. Also, films and TV tend to focus on London and the south of England, again where accents are seen as more upper-class than in the north of England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland.

Answer 3

They are only portrayed as being 'posh' by American film producers because that is the way that the American public expect them to sound. People with accents like actor Hugh Grant are few and far between in modern Britain.

Answer 4

Because of the way that they are portrayed in films and television programs.

Answer 5

Because rednecks are giant dookie ducks with no respect for may home dogs.
