| − | About two percent of Britons speak with the RP accent in its purest form.
| |
| − | Researchers generally distinguish between three different forms of RP: Conservative, General, and Advanced. Conservative RP refers to a traditional accent associated with older speakers with certain social backgrounds; General RP is often considered neutral regarding age, occupation, or lifestyle of the speaker; and Advanced RP refers to speech of a younger generation of British speakers. - [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Received_Pronunciation Received_Pronunciation]

| − | The attitude to using and broadcasting non RP-varieties of English has obviously changed. A few years ago someone had only a chance to work in broadcasting when he or she spoke RP and it was a nearly a disaster as J. Street-Porter who spoke another accent appeared in tv. People were shocked and didn´t like the idea of having all British accents not only RP in the media. This attitude has recently altered to a more tolerant point of view. Nowadays everyone can work in broadcasting no matter if he or she speaks RP, Estuary English or any other dialect. Of course, RP sounds still more educated, capable and credible to most people, but it is no longer the only correct "language". For instance, BBC has decided to support regional accents and to offer them employment. In conclusion, the attitude to non-RP accents has developed to more tolerance and gives the words more importance then their pronuncation.
