* IAmVeryBritish: Inverted. Her breakout roles gave her strong regional British accents (e.g. Gwen's clear Yorkshire and Ygritte's accent, which is somewhere in the Scottish Borders/[[OopNorth far North of England]] area). However, her actual speaking accent is [[IAmVeryBritish RP]] (see, e.g., [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k55Hm59emgw this interview]] with Creator/SethMeyers), even though she was born and raised in Aberdeenshire. This is less surprising when you realise that ''most'' of the traditional Scottish nobility (of which she is emphatically a member) speak RP as a ''class'' marker (they pick it up from their family and from school).
