Q, the similarity between New York accents and Eastend of London accents is no accident, when America was used as a penal colony a lot of London's criminals were transported to the USA. Also the modern Australian accent is very similar to the Suffolk accent, due to the fact that a lot of Suffolk magistrates owned land in Australia and they sent a lot of their "customers" there as cheap labour. |
