I must defer to the judgment of Essex as he, being a Brit, knows a lot more about what is a good British accent than I do. I just think there's a couple of spots where Elijah's accent is a little off. Like, "I think we should get off the road" sounds just a tad overdone. To me. Maybe not to you.
I'm not sure Viggo is ever trying to adopt a British accent, because he rarely sounds like he could actually be British. Another great Viggo American line is his first one: "You pay far too little attention to yourself, Mister Underhill." Oh, and then there's his words to Eomer: "I'm Aragorn, son of Arathorn. This is Gimli son of Gloin, and Legolas of the woodland realm." Another classic.
