Yes, I think about weird things

I was watching a tv program that had actors who had different accents on it. Well, one of the characters (who the show is centered around) is deaf. However, she's one who can read lips and talk herself. So it made me think.....if you are deaf and you live in say England or Ireland, do you speak with an accent or do you just talk like an American? Because essentially all deaf people I've ever heard speak sound alot like us when they talk. I mean they can't "hear" the accent. But, it just made me wonder. And how would I find out the answer?

Weird, I know.
