All the Brits in the show are extremely well-spoken.

From the politicians to the aides to the officials, pretty much every British person in “The Diplomat” talks as if they were born with a silver spoon in their mouth.

THE REALITY

While most Brits are not posh, politics is about the only remaining arena where speaking like King Charles is still more common than not.

Most U.S. television shows are frustrating for British viewers, because they tend to portray every character as, well, posh. But with three out of the last five PMs having gone to elite private schools, Westminster is pretty much still dominated by posh people — “The Diplomat” gets it right on this front.
