The sexiest accent in the world has been revealed this week and it sees the French accent being knocked out of the top spot.
According to the results of the new poll, the British accent has now been voted as the most attractive accent, with 26.7% of people worldwide voting it into top position.
The survey, which was carried out by Time Out in a Global Dating Survey saw the American accent come in second place with our lovely Irish lilt coming in third spot.
The Australian accent followed in fourth place while the French accent was knocked into fifth position.
The French can still be happy though as Paris was ranked as the number one spot for the best dating scene, with Melbourne, Kuala Lumpur, Beijing and Chicago making up the rest of the top five.
Elsewhere, Sydney was voted as having the happiest singles while it was the exact opposite in New York with 45 per cent of people stating they were ‘sad to be single’.
Fifty eight per cent of people also admitted to checking out a prospective beau on Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites.
The survey was carried out on 11,000 people in 24 cities around the world.
