The main point is that, UK accent is a harsh one, but I love'em ! In Brunei, we're studying U.K English but non of us have the accent.

I've always read something and try to imitate how English people do, but that is hilarious when I try every time.

To understand the British accent I've read some British books that had been produced as movies or TV shows.. try out to read Harry Potter if you haven't already, each time you finish a book, immediately watch the matching movie.. I bet it'll help.
