Subject: RE: BS: Why is the Geico Gekko a Brit?
It sounded like a modified Cockney accent to me. A true Cockney would be nearly unintelligible to most Americans. So what exactly is "estuary" anyway and where does it come from? Something to do with the mouth of a river? The ads are effective, though. I switched from Allstate to Geico.
