I believe its more like giving a tour: “And here we have our extremely tall filing cabinets. Cutting edge, I’m told. Now if you follow me, we’ll go see the monkey leopord cage…”
Are you distinguishing between a Cambridge accent and a Cockney accent, which is what this sounds like? Because you’d have to worry about different things from the kid.
I’m guessing you’re going for Cockney with the kid… Funnily enough, that accent is usually associated with unsophisticated types in the UK, but not so much in the US.
Just hand the kid a pint of alcohol. No English man can resist free alcohol (it would be impolite not to), and he’ll get the boot before he even started.
Unless the company has a heavy drinking culture, then your best bet is to tell the kid they DON’T allow drinking at work. He’ll call the whole room a bunch of colourul English words, flip the two finger salute, then head on down to the pub.
I like the boss’ expression in the last panel, “How did I never notice this?”

I think this comment is more surreal than the actual comic…
But then loosing out to the candidate from Mega Cambridge.
Losing*.
Clearly not from super Cambridge.
I just assume anyone with a British accent is smarter than me with one exception: Karl Pilkington.
Yeah, apparently you don’t watch enough BBC. It’s full of wankers, kids included.
Hehe, you said wankers…
Anyone who comes up with Dr. Who is automatically brilliant.
Actually in England we refer to Mega Cambridge as “Oxford”.
If he has a crutch you’re SOL
I love how you gave the british kid an old timey newsboy hat.
Yeah, I didn’t know how to visually show that he was British so I made him look like Tiny Tim.

And with today being “Talk like a Pirate day”… Argh matey we be speakin’ with a British pirate accent… argh chappie
I had a British neighbor when I was a kid. He wasn’t so much smart, as he was super annoying and punchable.

Anyone else read “bloody hell” in Ron Weasley’s voice?
