Well, the reason I said '99.9%' instead of '100%' is that I was using the remaining 0.1% to refer to the upper-class Brits that the woman in the video is doing a bad impression of.
But they don't speak like her. What you're saying is that 0.1% of Brits speak like her, and that's simply not true, any more than people from East London sound like Dick van Dyke.
