As a person with a British accent living in the US, I can certainly say that the accent gets attention every single time I speak to Americans. They do love it.

“Pride and Prejudice”, please. I love that movie.

Bridget Jones diary next please 🤓 I LOVE this film ❤️

STOP! RIGHT NOW! Where is Alan Rickman in "the important actors and accents" in the movie!? I saw that movie only for him, you need to recognise him as well ! :( Is my only huge critic for this video

Personally, I LOVE British accents. All of them. My favourites ones are Scottish and RP, but all of them are marvellous! I'm Argentinian and I've heard some people saying that Argentinian accent is lovely... Not quite sure about that, but maybe we do have a nice accent. Keep going with these videos, they're great!

I loved that you mentioned the airport thing. It shows how a londoner you are lol. Every British accent is fascinating to me. Your content is getting better and better, Tom. Thumbs up for that 👍

International flight to America = Heathrow. The Airport, the one and only

I’m from Utah..Idaho area. Now live in Oklahoma. 💯 % any guy with an English accent is adorable and goes to the top of the list. No matter what else he looks like it’s like an auto-attractive card. I’m so obsessed with the British accent I can’t watch any shows without it now…. I listen to it all day long and try and learn the differences from American English and the rules. American shows I can’t stand I would totally watch if they were British. Some of my ancestors migrated in the 17 and 1800’s and I just feel a huge kinship. Dream of the day I can come back and find my long lost cousins and try out my accent! Love you love your channel!♥️

For many Americans, the various British accents are like butter, as the saying goes. It's very attractive in general, except in the thicker accents where you can't understand what's being said. Interestingly enough, I do hear quite a few British English speakers say that they like the American Southern accent. What they don't usually know is that the reason American Southerners speak the way we do is literally because of the way the British immigrants who built the big plantations spoke in the late 1700s and early 1800s. This is just my opinion, but I believe this is why many American Southerners don't have as difficult a time understanding British people as it seems that American Northerners do at times. You'll find many American Southerners that have very similar, if not identical, vowel pronunciation and other linguistic details like use of stops and fricatives. Often, I find that the only difference in pronunciation between some British accents and the American Southern accent is a slight difference in place of articulation and stress position.

Your british accent keeps me motivated for learning English. It is a real pleasure to hear.

As an American, I absolutely adore British accents. As far as regional accents here in the states are concerned, I would say the Northern Vermont is the most interesting to me. It’s so obscure and hard to nail. My paternal relatives all live up there and it has always fascinated me.

King's speech next ;)

Thank you, Tom! I loooove this movie! And all the accents are just brilliant! Moreover, I've been meaning to tell you I adore your videos! They are always on point and they even make me laugh every now and then! You're doing a great job! My favourite English teacher on UKposts :)

Hey Tom, it is needless to say that the way you teach modern British English is also a very modern, innovative and fun way to learn the language. It is indeed very great to learn English with movies and TV shows as it enables non-English speakers to understand the meaning of words and their usage in a sentence. Since you have asked for suggestions as to which movies your viewers would like you to make a video with I would recommend you rather do a series with famous TV shows. Perhaps, Downton Abbey, G.O.T... Now I know that these use very outdated vocabulary but they are still very popular and very much ENGLISH.

Tooom, I loved this video 😍 It was so amazing to watch these scenes multiple times while you explained them and thanks for the subtitle as well 😊 I understood almost every word but still, I really like the way you put this video 😊 Keep up and merry Christmas! 💕

Hi! I'm Giulia from Italy. Thank you for sharing this video, your videos are always very useful for me; I've been practicing English since the end of August. I've never watched "Love actually" and it's a good idea to watch it in English this Christmas. London is incredible during Christmas time: I went there last week and I saw these lovely Christmas lights in the City streets and the ice-skating rink in front of the Natural History Museum, and Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park. I hope you'll have a wonderful Christmas with your family and friends! :)

Merry christmas Tom Thanks a lot for all of your videos this year .... I actually love this movie💙

Tom! One of my favourite films ever! I really enjoy your videos. Thanks and Merry Christmas.

That's series of video is so cool and useful. I dig it a a lot Thanks tom make more video like this.

Absolutely brilliant class!

Love the video and the new intro as well. I don't know why I haven't watched Love Actually yet, I can't wait now. Merry Christmas, Tom!

Tom you're a great youtuber and a brilliant English teacher! You certainly deserve a million subscribers. I love this series, thanks a billion!

Hi Tom, I love love love this film, thanks for bringing it up and let me understand the film more. Appreciate!!

Hi Tom. Thanks for that new video. I like the alternation : video excerpt, then useful vacabulary, then subtitled video excerpt. Very pedagogical. I wish you a Merry Christmas ("jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way" ;-) !!...)

LOVED IT!!! Thank you so much for doing this Tom!! Love Actually is my favorite movie, I loved all you comments and I really enjoyed watching this! I'm an English teacher as well, so this is a lovely video that I can use to teach my students some language and British culture, well done!! 😄🙏

I did enjoy seeing Love Actually back in 2004 in Bucharest, where I was working as a teacher. The title was Pur si Simplu Dragoste and it was shown in English with Romanian subtitles. My best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Tom. Keep on teaching us modern British English :-))

Great video again Tom! About British accents and British culture, I did't know what to expect from the video title 😂

Thank you for this amazing video and your lessons

Love your channel buddy keep it up. Nice color of shirt btw!

LOVE THAT PURPLE CONTACT LENSES

Paddington please for the next video. Also thank u for your videos. They are what I am looking for for a long time. I recently discovered this channel by accident. As a Chinese student who is currently studying in UK university, I think speaking local English is a really big task for me apart from my courses. Before I came to UK two years ago, English is just a course in China and we only use it in classes and for exams. There is a huge gap between the English I learnt from textbook and everyday life I experience in UK. Also the language systems, cultures, customs and even the mindsets are quite opposite for eastern and western countries. Now I am trying to learn local cultures and get involved in this country society. So happy to discover your videos to help me with my progress.

What a great and brilliant video~ I really love "Love Actually" I've seen it maybe 20 times or more~ really really love it. And I can understand that film more thanks to your explain. Accents, the things related to Christmas, Culture, vocabularies etc. really really appreciate it Tom. I hope to see "Notting Hill"^^ ps. Rest in peace Alan Rickman one of my favorite actor

"It's okay, we'll go to the airport" lol that cracked me up

Thank you very much Tom for this video! I loved it, and I love Love Actually, haha. Another nice British movie to study English would be Educating Rita, because of Rita's and Frank's different accents, and the appearance of the great Sir Michael Caine of course.

Paddington, the great film, full of love to British culture, to London.

it's very helpful for me this tipe of video, thanks, I hope for more😍

Definitely! Tom, I love your videos! I am not sure if you have never talked about Notting Hill. Well, if not, that’s my suggestion as it’s my favourite British film. From the heart ♥️ Then Bridget Jones... so funny! The English language plays a huge role in my life. I said something about it when I commented the Paul’s accent video. Also I met my boyfriend due to my English lessons... he’s English and yes, I love the British accent, the most perfect accent of all. 🤩🤩Now, despite most of my life inside “an American world”, I’m becoming more English each day. 🥰🥰 Happy New Year, Tom!

thanks so much Tom. i first watch this movie 10 years ago and i didnt like it much then (as i dont really understand). but watching it again after 1 years living in the uk, i've realized how great it is. i really love British classic films like this and i really hope that you can do more videos with any other movies you find interesting.

Love the mention of the "soft Welsh" accent. I used to have a colleague with a lovely Welsh accent.

Your content delivery is immaculate

I don't have the least idea if Americans really like English accent but I can tell for sure that this is one of the most interesting and useful video to learn English. I mean that this idea to connect famous English movies with explanations of the language and idioms used in the footages taken into consideration is absolutely perfect!

Thank you so much, Tom! Amazing lesson, by the way Secret Santa in Spain is called "amigo invisible" we do the same things lol, I wish you a very merry Chirstmas and a prosperous New Year! 😉😉

Thank you Tom, Merry Christmas :)

You are a great teacher indeed'. I love the way to learn English from you'

What an amazing video, Tom! Thanks for your great job! Film wise, many things got explained. Who speaks which accent and why is the airport” thing there so annoying🤣 Brilliant as always, Tom ❤️

I have laughed so hard, with the airport thing situation !! THANK YOU

Thank you for this .. I love this movie and all the Actors.. Hugh Grant to be particular..

I love your accent...

Great video, thanks Tom! One of my all-time favorite movies, and a must-watch during Christmastime! (I just don't get the haters!) Two things that were especially funny in your video... You bring up Colin Firth's character (Jamie) being bad at speaking other languages. One of my favorite bits in the movie is in that scene, when he unsuccessfully tries, for the third time, upon meeting Aurelia, to converse with her, and Eleonore asks "And that is what...Turkish?" That bit never gets old haha. And then YES the thing about the airport! And I've always wondered, too, why if Daniel knew a shortcut, why'd they still almost miss Joanna at the airport?? One small note: Colin (Kris Marshall) actually says that he's primarily "attractive" to girls who are cooler, game for a laugh (not "attracted" to). P.S. I was never really sure how Daniel (Liam Neeson) and Karen (Emma Thompson) were connected. I sent a message to Richard Curtis to ask him about it and he kindly replied that they were old friends, but that he didn't have time to get into their backstory in the film. P.P.S. Kudos to Craig Armstrong for a fantastic score including some truly beautiful compositions, but this is also one of the great tragedies of this film, that the complete collection of his work on this movie has never been available for purchase (at least not in the U.S.). You can find the three primary themes (Glasgow, Portuguese and PM's) around on the internet, but I'd love to have the orchestral composition that flows out of Billy Mack's studio session of Christmas is All Around at the beginning of the film, too.

Hope you have a great Christmas tom and 🥂 here’s to a great 2019! 😁

My favorite film of all time! 😊 so your video was a little christmas treat for me

Thank's very much.So useful.

Dear Tom, loved your latest video. ‘One actually’ is one of my favourites. It’d be great if you could make a video about ‘King’s Speech’ or ‘The Theory of Everything’. Cheers! And btw we’re absolutely fond of RP, it’s so posh, clear and sexy 😉

Hi Tom, only recently I discovered your channel which is absolutely brilliant! Loving every videos! There is one film I thought would be very interesting if you can do it; its called Beautiful thing (1996 ) Cockney accent and many British slangs / idioms / phrases .. hard to understand!! Need explaining! Cheers Paul

Great video in several aspects, thanks Tom! I really dig it and I also like the accent of Hugh Grant .... probably a bit posh for a "British ear" but definitely clearer and better understandable for my "foreign ear" 😊 I've never watched the film you analyzed in today's lesson. Usually the films I prefer to watch at Christmas are "Notting Hill", "Bridget Jones's diary" and the cartoon "Sing" (I know...I'm not a child but I love it 😃). Instead, the next film I would like to learn English with is definitely "The King's Speech". Merry Christmas Tom 😘

I really dig what you do, Tom! Whatever the film you choose it'll be great 🙋 This was an amazing video. Thanks and have a Merry Little Christmas ✨💙

Love Actually is one of my favorite films. I watch it every Christmas! And yes, Americans do love British accents. I married a Brit, and what first attracted me to him was his lovely accent.

Dear Tom, I wish you a fantastic New Year!

i really love those photos of london in the background. i'd love to see photos of london neighborhoods, though. i lived in richmond-twickenham (where Rolling Stones were born) for a while and i was wondering how those neighborhoods and their high streets look like and the name of the it (clapham, hammersmith, etc.) on the corner of the screen, just to have an insight of the town. but i guess i'm silly!

Thomas Brodie-Sangster is one of my favourite actors, he was born in Southwark but I don't know what kind of accent he has exactly. He looks so cute as Sam🤧❤

I loveddd this film because of all the issues you mentioned in this video !!! Tkss a lot !!!! Cheers from Argentina !!!

I love this movie ! "Love Actually" is amazing ! Pls consider to try "Charriots of Fire" ! Great initiative Tom !

I really really love this movie. I enjoy watching it again and again every Christmas Eve.😁

Merry Christmas Tom 🎄

I really love the film!!!!btw happy Christmas teacher Tom!!!!

Happy new year Tom ❤ Wish you all the best and wish we'll turn 1 million eat sleap dreamer this year Thanks again for helping us with your great videos 😍

Harry Potter, please.. I really love Allan Rickman's "Mr. Potter" phrase :)

I was once interested in someone because of their English accent. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to sustain a relationship. Also, while traveling with an international dance troupe, my Bronx accent got me a lot of attention. People kept asking me to say things like coffee and quarter or they’d repeat other words that were amusing to them. I’ve been watching your videos because I still love the English accent and I think you’re a great teacher.

OMG, Colin Firth is impresive in that scene! From the point of view of a Spanish woman, I find British accent sexier than American!

One thing that I like about this film and that could also be addressed, is the British mentality of the stiff upper lip. You can see that in many scenes. For example, when Emma Thompson cries heartbreakingly in her room and then pushes her emotions aside, later talking to her husband a little more calmly about the situation. Or the whole situation with Mark and Juliet and how he never really speaks about his feelings. Or the way Thompson consoles Liam Neeson, more with humor and sarcasm than with hugs and comforting words. I even think there's a scene where Emma Thompson and Alan Rickman talk about it and make fun of Joni Mitchel's music teaching a cold English woman to develop feelings, or something like that. I think the film does it in a nice way, without exaggerate to much. And it also show the very unique British humor in great way. And I say it as a non-Britsh person.

I really love this movie as well many friends. This is "the" traditional movie to watch before Christmas to get into the mood.

Hahahaha I love your two cents about the airport !!

I'd love to see some video about Bridget Jones Diary)) Thank you Tom, love your videos!

I'm asian but, we (my surroundings - family,friend,etc) will 'melt' when we heard british accent. So, I believe it's true. I love 'Me Before You' movie. Can you do that next?

Thank you, Tom! You made me want to see this film.:-)

I understand what you say just as we were growing up together, but those accents!!!

Bridget Jones would be interesting because the actress is american and I've seen loads of british people in the comment section of her interviews saying that her accent was so accurate as Bridget that they thought she was english. Of course there are the ones that disagree, so you could break it down for us :)

Great video, Tom 😊 I love this film! Looking at the comments here I’m a bit surprised how many Americans seem to follow your English lessons 😉 I guess because they love your accent!

Great Work 😍

I adore your accent maybe one day i'l teach British accent like you do now to my future students

Great video, thanks! What about "Trainspotting" or "Lock, stock and 2 smoking barrels"?

Could you make a video about Harry Potter ?

I'm from South America and I love British accent

love actually the best movie ever!!! many thanks Tom !!! british accent ohhhh beautiful lovely!

Yes, we Americans like British accents - but the truth is, we like almost all accents. When my Southern accent was weakest I still got comments in other parts of the country. It's the novelty to a degree - the US is so huge that most of us only rarely hear any but our own accent in daily life.

We did actually watch "Love Actually" at English class in secondary school. Greetings from Poland!

i think maybe u could make another video again for love actually and speak much more about the phrases and expressions.

About time plz 😍👍🏼

Liam Neason has a Ballymena accent... Ballymena is NI but it is a very different accent compared to Belfast due to the Scottish influences of Protestant Plantation in the 17th century.

Hi Tom! Merry Christmas :)

I loved this! And BRIDGET JONES please!!

I'd love to see you do 'The imitation game' or 'The darkest hour'. That would be lovely.

nice youtube channel, you have one more follower, cheers!!

You should rect to Snatch or Lock, stock and two smoking Barrels. I bloody love those films.

Great video, this is the first one I watched, really enjoyed it, I am originally from Brazil but living in Ireland for almost 20 years now, I never went to an English school or had ever any English class, only learnt by listening and practising while I was working, anyway, people here are very polite they always compliment my English by saying that it's very good but I don't really think it is, I can read anything, have a conversation with anyone but after all this year I still struggling with pronunciation. Would have any suggestions, thanks a million

Great lesson and video! I know it wouldn't make much sense if I request Trainspotting for the next film because the accent is Scottish but it's such a great film and I'm pretty sure it's not only me who likes to learn English with the help of this film. I hope you can make it possible.

Thanks!

Please do a video about Kingsman - that'd be brilliant!

1-I also spent 15 min try'n 2 figure out which airport . 2-my favorite accents :Northern Irish ,Rp/ with cockney hints & Glasgow. New Zealand , Australia

I don't even come here to learn another language I just love your videos and to make sure i use/know enough British slang haha :P :D
