Only programmes I watch are
Game of Thrones and looking forward to the next season of Narcos.
Thats some good accent detective work. Luckily I never noticed, if it was a yank doing a crap english accent then that it would annoy me.I was in a business last Fall whereas a group of young men were gathered around a PC watching Narcos. I watched for a few minutes and casually remarked that:
A. the 'star' was not Colombian due to his accent (turns out he's Brazilian)
B. neither is his moll (she's Mexican).
After I said this they just stared at me.I lived there for a year and know the regional accents & mannerisms as well.
P.S. The show is total BS and about as real as SPAM. Trust me, drug dealers are not romantic in the least.

You'll be telling me that Star Wars isn't true next.
Well I'm happy about that then. 2001 A Space Odyssey is bobbins.Most English, Scots, Irish, etc., actors cannot totally conceal their accents while playing a Yank. Kenneth Branagh probably did it best.
Ironic that you should mention Star Wars as I once read where George Lucas at first wanted the space scenes to be silent, i.e., scientifically correct such as in 2001 A Space Odyssey, as space is a vacuum. However, he decided against it as it was thought too many would find it boring.
TV will rot your brain.
