So is this English dub actually done by UK voice actors or is it U.S. VAs sporting British accents?

As a non English speaker, are there any anime dubs made in the UK? It's because here in Spanish-speaking Latin America dubs are made in various different countries, mainly in Mexico, but also in Argentina, Colombia or Chile, but Spain makes their own dubs due European/Castillian Spanish having a completely different dialect that's too different from most of Latin American Spanish ones. Do British people complain that anime English dubs dubs, or voice acting in general, sounds too American, or attempts at imitating British accents sound bad?

I don’t know if it’s still common, but Manga Entertainment used to host dubs in the UK back in the 90s.

It's very obviously a US citizen doing a british accent.
