Abstract:	This TFG deals with two varieties of British English: Received Pronunciation and Standard Southern British English. The aim is to compare the two with HM The King, Charles III and his son HRH William, The Prince of Wales as reference; as well as the mechanisms involved in the evolution of RP into its modern equivalent (SSB). The comparison was carried out using graphic material, that is: public speeches and interviews; as well as a historical recording of Charles’ investiture as Prince of Wales and its recreation in Netflix’s TV series The Crown. The data obtained in the graphic material analysis exemplifies and reinforces the findings in the theoretical background. The research found that the accents of the participants are in a process of shifting and have not remained the same with time. The accents of neither William nor Charles are purely RP or SSB; only the recreation in The Crown is purely RP.
