Would you believe the name of the 'Blog" is "EEVblog". Here is a example;

The guys name is Dave Jones. He numbers his tests EEVblogxxxx.You don't have to look very far  :-+;

To be fair, I've noticed, the Australian accent does sound similar to some parts of Eastern England. I remember speaking to some people from somewhere in East Anglia, it could've been Cambridgeshire or Suffolk and couldn't help but notice they have an Aussie twang. I thought it was because they'd watched too many trashy Australian soaps, but no it's real. I believe the old working class London accent a couple of hundred years or so ago, sounded similar to Australian, but it's completely changed since then, whilst the Aussies haven't.

Part of the UK last time I looked.
Gyro:
Part of the Commonwealth*. The UK is the United Kingdom of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.


* Commonwealth of Nations to give it it's full title.

I don't see an straight answer yet.

The stereotype (I guess "meme" in the modern parlance) is Australian males are called Bruce, and females Sheila. It's probably only commonly used in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand.

There are quite a few UK regional accents in the Australian one. There is still the occasional UK accent influence in various US and Canadian regional accents too.
