For fun and out of curiosity - what is your favourite English accent?
I find it ironic how we often dislike our own English accents while foreigners love our accents. Has anybody had this experience? What is YOUR favourite English accent?

Yeah, I've had a similar experience to what you describe, except that I neither like nor dislike my own accent (Yorkshire, England). I'm mostly completely unaware of it. But since I've lived in the US, I've been told by loads of Americans that they love UK accents. When I'm out and about people say "You have such a cool accent, where are you from?" I always explain that I'm just as fond of their accent, and I find it just as cool, as they do of mine. I love the US, the culture, the people, the accent, the politics. At least, I did until... no, I won't go there. :P

I find I love other accents such as the Arabic-English accent, more interesting than my own. Perhaps it is a case of finding anything new and unfamiliar intriguing. Novelty is nice.

Mohamed I would think that accent is similar to the Scottish accent. I also love Game of Thrones!

My Swedish friends all claim that the Swedish accent is a unique British-American-Swedish hybrid. At school, Swedes learn British English, but they also watch a ton of American television (foreign shows, except children's shows, are never dubbed in Sweden). Mash both accents together and throw in the influence of their native tongue and we have this incredibly mixed accent.
