lol, joe, I don't know about professional. I'm interested to know what the other English people on the site think (particularly the southerners, because it's definitely a southern accent). I'd guess he's from Swindon. Either that, or from Bristol but spent some time nearer London.
Last time I heard an accent like that, I was in a Bristol pub with a mate and all I said was, "two pints of that, please" and the barmaid immediately said, "you boys are a long way from 'ome" in the same accent that guy has. Weirdly, I was less than two hundred miles from home. In many countries, that's absolutely nothing.
I'm an English Southerner. It does have a bit of the farmer about it, West Country like Bristol. Swindon might be a safer bet since it sounds a little bit more Eastern. Kind of hard to tell because he also sounds slightly retarded, and has a weird intonation, and, as he confessed himself, "has trouble with his pronunciation".
I'm from Gloucestershire, proper farmer accent there.... arrrr!
What accent do you find the most attractive?

He does say "episode" as "epswisode"
No where near as extreme as Scouse or Geordie though.
