Please don't think accent changes are affected! I've heard that theory for years on DCUM, and it's hurtful and silly to think that most people would deliberately make an effort to change how they speak - way too much trouble (notable exception: Thatcher). Some people are just natural mimics and do it without even realizing they do it.
How hurt do you think Johnny is by us accusing him of a fake accent?
