:I agree on the reference. Another possible female addition could be Diana Athill. There is a reference [http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/books/8730916/Diana-Athill-the-woman-who-spoke-so-well-I-couldnt-understand-her.html here], albeit from a rather poorly-written article.

::Thanks for the suggestion, but I read the article and couldn't find a reference to RP (though this was clearly what the writer had in mind). [[User:RoachPeter|RoachPeter]] ([[User talk:RoachPeter|talk]]) 17:44, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
 
== Vowel chart ==
 
Shouldn't we add a table which shows the difference in vowel realization between Contemporary RP and Traditional RP the way Upton (2004, see https://books.google.it/books?id=EeXI43AwwiEC&pg=PA241&dq=received+pronunciation+upton&hl=it&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjX7IaU-JvSAhVCvBQKHSXmAKoQ6AEIVzAI#v=onepage&q&f=false) and Pearce (2007) do, using lexical sets? This would allow for a better representation of the current state of the accent and the former standard.
