Not quite comfortable with my natural accent, after a year long work, I seem to have finally lost the grip on my broad East Midland accent, and sound as if I've non-regional influenced neutral accent.

I've achieved it by firstly making myself aware of the sounds in British English along with delving into Phonetics & Phonology. I then practised on a regular basis learning the EXACT articulation of each individual sounds (around 26-30 in British neutral accent). Hence am comfortable with learning any new accent, as long as I get to know the number of sounds involved & its precise articulation.

I wonder if there's anyone around who've similar interest or could possibly point me in the right direction, which could help me gain a "Plummy" accent as of Hugh Grant. Only at certain times, I'm comfortable in identifying the sound & its articulation merely by listening to people.

Is there any book, website or anything at all that SHOW the sound articulation that occurs in "plummy" accent ???

I am trying to trace my family tree and I can get no further than 1260 with the birth of a Sir Anthony de Tipton supposedly knighted on dec 11 1282. I am unsure if this is accurate as I can find no true evidence. I would like to be able to substantiate these claims and find out my family's origins before England.
