Could anyone help me to find out which accent these 2 audios are ? Thank you!!!
I am studying English through listening to audio books. Since I like the novel"The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry", I plan to listen to its audiobook. But I am not sure which accent the audiobooks are. Could you help me to find out?
Here are two samples of audio books of "The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry".

Jim Broadbent is from Lincolnshire in the east of England. His accent is not a strong one by English standards, and it is close to a standard southern English accent. If you listen to audio files of words in online dictionaries, the accent will be similar. I think he is a good person for a student to listen to.

Hey Yuanyuan, those 2 books are read by the same person (Jim Broadbent), a famous English actor. His accent is very British to me, but maybe someone more familiar with the UK could pinpoint the exact location ;)
