Hmmmm... I believe no one has the same accent. Yes, it has been hundreds of years and the English has changed. It will continue to change. Hats off to him!
It's ridiculous to think that a modern British accent would be more accurate than a modern American accent. If anything, a German accent would probably best, but I'd doubt it. The modern British accent sounds very different even from Shakespeare's English which sounded more Irish than anything.
There is an accent change every 20 miles or so in England, and one of them, spoken by people of the "Black Country", in the heart of England , is as near pure Anglo Saxon as you can get. This was studied and confirmed by the University of Birmingham about 4 years ago. Germany has nothing like it. Let's hear no more about this Irish "guessing", Black Country Anglo Saxon sounds nothing like Irish. The author of this piece should start by flattening his vowels for a start.
Just put "Black Country" into Wikipaedia.. (un ifn thees got yer yeddon proper, yowl si worrom spaekin abaht, neow, open yer gorbies un learn summat wull ya).
@goqsane How do you know that? how do you know that when thousands of English people left England for America they didn't take their accent with them?
A people or a language that doesn't leave it's country, won't change.
For example; lets say that there are 100 people and only 5 of them are brown hair, and 2 brown haired and blonde haired people went to a new land. If they had kids, half of their kids would probably have brown hair. Likewise, Americans incorporated a few accents from Norfolk, Netherlands and ireland, thus creating the American Accent.

That's not how language works.
A people or a language that doesn't leave it's country, won't change.
