    Having just heard Natalie Appleton on "I'm a Celebrity (UK)" where did she get that American accent? She's meant to be British!

    		Why are they meant to be British? Both Nicole and Natalie Appleton are Canadian, aren't they?

    I think the fact that Melanie and Shaznay were from this side of the pond and the Appletons were from the other is why the All Saints song "Never Ever" has one verse with the alphabet running from "A to Zed" and another has it running from "A to Zee".

    In American infomercials, why do British pitch-men seem to have the same accent? And what accent is it?

    Gillian Anderson (Scully in X files) was born in Chicago and clearly speaks in the programme with an American accent. Then I heard her interviewed on the BBC (on the radio) and she had a perfect English accent. Are there two Gillian Andersons, did I confuse her with another guest or is there a logical explanation?

    Not acting, but playing herself in a cosmetics ad, Charlize Theron insists on doing an American accent. Is she embarrassed about her genuine South African origins, as I can never imagine an Australian doing this. She hasn't been in the States long enough to pick up much of an accent, so does anyone know what makes her pretend to be what she isn't?
