The 7 Worst Accents Ever Used In Movies

Without a doubt, the 1964 Disney film, Mary Poppins, has stood the test of time. A fun and colorful watch that has a number of memorable musical scenes, its only knock comes from co-star Dick Van Dyck. In the film, Van Dyck plays Cockney chimney sweeper Bert and it is his attempt at the Cockney movie accent that is an ear sore.

In fact, when Van Dyke received his 2017 BAFTA, he took the opportunity to apologize, saying, “I appreciate this opportunity to apologize to the members of BAFTA for inflicting on them the most atrocious Cockney accent in the history of cinema.”
