I always thought it strange that the very British Bamber has to talk with an American accent on Galactica while his real-life wife - Doc Cottle's assistant who saved Adama - talks with her normal Brit accent and Lucy Lawless is allowed to retain her New Zealand accent.
I don't think the audience would buy Lee as the Admiral's son if one had a British accent and one had an American accent.

I was amazed the first time I heard Bamber speaking with his normal accent, though -- I had no idea he was a Brit! He really pulls off the American accent perfectly.
