It's really hard for me to take a bad guy with a British accent seriously, even though I know that's stupid. I think a lot of Americans think a British accent, even cockney, sounds educated. And I, personally, think a Scottish accent is one of the sexiest things ever.

However, you're right, there are certain stereotypes that hold sway, such as the 'posh accents,' and that EVERYONE has tea every single day, and that the British don't demonstrate much emotion. I don't harbor any such stereotypes because I started watching BBC programs. ( :

We see them as a regular person (as regualr as a celebrity can be) and dont act shocked when they are not wearing a bowler hat and eating crumpets. I also can say that I am aware of the prevalence of non-whites (indian etc) that live in london, as I have heard how good London's indian food is! But I do think many americans tend to think of England as almost completely white. Probably a layover from their colonial days.
