I've mentioned this guy here before. This Danish ex-football player who played in
Scotland with Glasgow Celtic can be seen and heard
here giving an
interview.

His near-native accent never ceases to amaze me and it's clear he was heavily influenced
by his surroundings during his time in Scotland. His Danish accent is nearly undetectable
and the melody he uses is more or less bang on. Is such an accent typically within reach
of all Danes? Does anyone know any other famous non-native speakers who can reproduce a
UK regional accent so effortlessly?

I seem to recall that another danish player Jan Molby developed quite a scouse (Liverpool) accent during his time there.
