I think advertising London limeys isn't a good idea because too many Americans think London is all there is to England. Make it, uhh, Leicester, or LEEDS, 'cos fowk theear soun' funny.
You could take one of every accent in England and introduce them to a crowd of Americans and I am willing to bet damn near half of them think there are only 2 different accents. A quarter of them will think there are like 4 accents. Around an 1/8 will think they are watching
Britain's Got Talent. A bunch of idiots will think that they are all from Australia and South Africa, a group of rednecks will think they are from Austria. And the remaining person will think the British are attacking and will yell "One if by land, Two if by sea, THE BRITISH ARE COMING" and try to find the nearest horse, granted that last person likely would be me seeing as I would see a unified front of British accents and KNOW something is wrong.
