We Brits are conditioned from an early age to respond to a posh voice. Not so much these days, but in TV dramas or comedy, the person in charge usually speaks posh. Also, in adverts when they want to tell you something they deem as important they put the message over in a posh voice. However, in recent times, it seems that every advert has to be mixed race and LGBTQ+ compliant. To reflect modern life, I guess :)A typical example of idiots assuming that just because someone has a posh accent and knows a few 'long words' they are intelligent.
