    First one no idea, only a couple of vowels are not English-sounding.

    Second, blocked in the UK

    Third, Slavic - there’s a characteristic touch of palatalisation/raising of her pronunciation of the “a” vowel. I would never have guessed she had the same native language as the first person though - I don’t hear that in his speech.

    From my own knowledge, someone with an extremely good English accent (like #1) whose native language is Slavic is most likely to be Polish, due to the number of polish people who settled in the UK, and many of them will have brought young children with them who therefore have near-native accents.

        They all speak different but excellent english. The first two on the British side, the third clearly more in the American pronunciation.

        I personally can not distinguish from this what their native language would be.

        By looks the third person would possibly be in eastern Europe, the others British or close.

        But even that is just a wild guess
