Line 185:
* Baron Harkonnen from the ''Dune'' miniseries was given a distinctly British accent, and in fact is actually portrayed by a british person. Also a bit odd, considering the fact that a Russian accent/Russian actor might have made logically more sense given the fact that his first name is "Vladimir," of all things.
** And the last name, Harkonnen, is (if anything) ''Finnish''.
* ''[[The Cape (trope)]]'' has two characters named Peter Fleming AKA Chess and Scales. Peter Fleming speaks English with a posh British accent. Scales speaks English with either a Cockney accent or an Australian accent. Peter Fleming is the evil [[Big Bad]] of the show. Scales is the thuggish evil [[The Dragon]] (possibly graduating to another [[Big Bad]]) of the show.
* Averted on ''[[The X-Files]]''; all of the Syndicate have American accents, except for the Well-Manicured Man, who is British. The Well-Manicured Man (played by England native John Neville) is actually Mulder's informant, and ends up sacrificing his life to be so.
* Vex is definitely the most evil character seen so far on ''[[Lost Girl]]'' and yep, he has a British accent.
