IMHO David Attenborough is one of the greatest communicators of our time. His narration can make the life cycle of a sea slug seem like the most spellbinding story you've ever heard, even today, when his diction has become a little less distinct with advancing years.

Does the American audience really find a "standard" (non-regional) English accent that objectionable, or difficult to understand?
Yup, I've watched some nature docs with a British commentator and then the ones with Oprah... If I had a choice I'd go with the British accent. The guy was so much better. But the American's love Oprah I guess.
