Actors and Actresses who are(and if they're dead,were)American,in their career,played characters who spoke with a British accent.Example:William Shatner.Although he speaks English,2 of his characters,in 1961's "One Step Beyond" episode called "The Promise" ,and a 1957 episode of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" called "The Glass Eye".spoke with a British accent.In every other role he's played,he spoke English.Know of any other actors besides William Shatner who played characters that spoke with a British accent?

I forgot to add:TV Roles ONLY.Not movies.
