Huh. I dunno. Now I have to go and listen to his voice over and over to work it out. It isn't a strong accent of anywhere in particular thats for sure....
... Oh my God everything is slash vids on YouTube. Eeww. No.
Broke out the DVDs. Easier that way. Really, I think it's his voice more than his accent? Wikipedia says he's from Somerset, but it's not a stereotypical Somerset accent (i.e. farmer). I'm going to say it's a soft Somerset accent that has probably been sort of... eroded over time. So Somerset/London but nothing strong. It sounds like a pretty standard British TV accent to me. But I'm not great at accents and I guess the difference wouldn't be that pronounced to me anyway.
