Haha, no she doens't!

And what is it with Americans and that sentance, "well hello governor"? I don't get it. It's always on American sitcoms. Is it a quote from somewhere?

On subject, though, I like it, but I don't get it with the patdown. Isn't it that that just happens to like one in a hundred passangers? Otherwise it's just the metal detector and stuff. But the idea of not having to strip to go through the metal detector sounds extremely good.

Its not even a London accent, sounds like somewhere in Essex.


Its all a bit OTT IMO.

:DIf she has got any accent at all, it`s a very slight mancunian one...

...nothing like an Essex accent ( I should know, I`m from Essex:p)

:chin:X-ray specs come true??;)

I don't know, its just one of those generic, stereotypical quotes, like "Tea and crumpets?" for a generic British accent.

As for whether she has an accent or not: She definitely has one, but all I know for sure is that its something British :p (actually, I can also say that its definitely not RP, and I noticed in particular that she drops the 't' in "part")
