It was a perfect British accent. Kudos.

I actually assumed she was british and was generally shock to find you is american. Superb Actress

She should win an Oscar on the accent alone. Im a yank and can tell when a yank is doing a bad accent. But damn her's was perfect.

Even putting the "r" at the end of some words that end in "a" as some Brits do. She's very good. That's detail.

I totally agree !!! Just when I think I have her figured out, another curveball. Wonderful surprise from a wonderful actress.

I had to see where in England she was from, and she turns out to be a yank!!

She is a 2002 graduate of Rose Bruford College of Speech and Drama in London, England. That may have a little to do with it!! 

I, too, initially thought she was British, but then I figured that with a name like "Lake Bell" she just had to be American.
