The weirdest British accent is the one where they pronounce the R sound as a W, like a child who hasn't mastered it yet. It honestly took me many YouTube videos of different people with the accent to realize it wasn't a speech impediment.

How does something like that persist? Everyone has their ignorant opinions, of course, and mine is simply that this goes beyond "different" into straight up wrong.

isn’t that the upper class accent? probably mimicking or conserving former latin pronunciation or maybe german
