Queens English is how english should be spoken. If you have ever heard the Queen speak you'll know what I mean. To the average Brit, its posh and those that are highly educated and from very wealthy families will more than likely speak the 'Queens English'. Don't get me wrong though, some posh girls can be a scream beneth the bedsheets!!

Those with a broader, general upbringing will speak with an accent, which will symbolise where that person is from. People from Newcastle in the North East of England for example will speak with a 'Geordie' accent (why eye man - Roy Chubby Brown) and is probably the furthest extreme from the Queens English. If you've never heard of Roy Chubby Brown, stick the name in You Tube but avoid doing it in front of the wife/girlfriend as they will more than likely be offended! He's considered by wife as being vulga.
