Has apparently been voted the sexiest in the world:

But which British accent? There are so many.

Personally I still think that the French accent has what it takes.

It's a little silly, though, as an accent in a foreign language is going to sound different to whoever's listening and it's not going to cut it in some languages. So is it the British accent of speakers of English that is considered so utterly sexy?
I agree with Londoner, many accents in the UK and some of them not so engrossing, to be honest.

I'm constantly doing accents. It's been a habit since I was a kid. I don't know why but I just like trying to emulate sounds or something. I try to have fun with it too but I"m sure someday I'll be overheard by the wrong person who will think I'm making fun of them :/

We're still friends and talk on the phone occasionally, and the accent still gets to me! lol
