That´s cause it sounds sophisticated. And guys with brains are sexy. Therefore British accent + smooth voice = awesome. I sometimes need to be careful to not get into it too much so my accent becomes a little too Cockney. After watching a bit too much of LotS and FlashForward, both shows where my favourite characters both speak with a very distinguished Brit accent, I could tell that had an effect on my way of speaking. *holds self back* A character from ancient history... hm... that´s a tough one, cause many of which we know had an unpleasant fate. Definitely noone from Greece, cause they didn´t really treat women nicely. Egypt... hm... you either were someone who had to drag around bricks all day or possibly someone royal... who had to marry their own brother. I´d go for some... maybe a Celtic druide-ess.

Rumina: You have? Whoa, how comes? If anything at all I have a little Middle-England-ish accent... which is slowly getting lost I fear since I don't have much of a chance to speak English here. @sinbad: That name rings a bell... but I wouldn't know about they way he speaks. Oh you gotta ask the next question though.

alex: Indeed his accent is awesome! ;D It's just so mumbled and chewed and yet so charming at the same time! @doubar: I guess I just have a good diction and a good hear.

Oh definitely Sir Ian McKellen! Dunno why, but out of those four I like that one best. Ahm, if you could pick on any profession in the world (not regarding your strengths and weaknesses - only your interests!) - what profession would you choose?

Hm... I´d say a combination of book writer and movie director. ;D
If you could go back in time and kill baby Hitler, would you?

Tough question actually. Without Adolf, would the SS party (or what ever they were called sorry) ever make it so far. Hitler has horrible as this may sound, was Germany's only hope to get out of the depression they were in during post WWII. Now did Germany fully understand what the SS party wanted to accomplish in a whole? probably not, but the German people at that time had no other choice, they had to trust that new government.
So would I kill hitler if I could go back in time? the Answer No, but I would go and remove his vocal cords so he would never be able to speak.
If you could try one item of food from around the world, what would it be?

ancient greece, or rome, or egypt, or ireland (i don't know, i love all them times). Those times are the ones I find most fascinating. Back in the time of gladiators, desert princesses and beautiful monuments is where I want to be, minus the female supression (totally agree with you there Sinbad!). Who is your dream guy? ;D
