Line 303:
** Also, in [[Transformers Generation 1|the original cartoon]] Shockwave had a David-Warner-inspired British accent. His ''Animated'' equivalent (who has the same VA) retains this and {{spoiler|his double-agent identity of Longarm has an American accent}}.
* [[Fairly Oddparents|AntiCosmo]]: Accent, posh, outfit, FANGS! He's a textbook example. In fact, many fans have potrayed him as a Vampire.
*
** Evil mastermind Ra's Al Ghul has a cultured British courtesy of [[David Warner]].
** The Mad Hatter is specifically said to be British in the episode "The Worry Men".
*** This trope could practically be called 'The David Warner'. He's also [[The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy|Nergal]], [[Buzz Lightyear of Star Command|Lord Angstrom]], [[Gargoyles|The Archmage]] and so on. From what this troper hears, he's a pretty nice guy in real life.▼
** In ''[[Batman: Under the Red Hood]]'', Ra's' cultured British accent is provided by Jason Isaacs.

* Superman's enemy Metallo was [[Race Lift]]ed into an Evil Brit for ''[[Superman: The Animated Series]]''.
* Terrence from ''[[Totally Spies!]]''. Even though {{spoiler|[[Luke, I Am Your Father|his brother]]}} Jerry is a good guy.
Line 325:
*** Wouldn't they be [[Canada, Eh?]] though?
* Peep the pickpocket in ''[[Jimmy Two-Shoes]]'', though his accent is Cockney rather than anything distinguished.
* Emma Frost from the [[X-Men]] comics is usually Race Lifted to British in any animated version,
* ''[[Jackie Chan Adventures]]'' had evil Englishman Valmont.
* ''[[Jem]]'' has got Jetta, the pathologically lying saxophonist with criminal connections from Britain who joins the Misfits in the second season. She's regarded as the [[Token Evil Teammate]] of a band that was already considered the bad guy group of the show. She's the only Misfit who's tried to scam her bandmates, as seen in ''Britrock'', where she convinced her parents to help her convince Pizzazz she was British royalty by promising that they could bilk her out of millions. Of course, that episode helped provide something of a [[Freudian Excuse]] by showing that Jetta grew up in a lower class British home, and the fact that her parents were willing to go to such lengths to make money (and had already assumed the worst when Jetta contacted them), it's easier to understand what drives Jetta.
