I don't know when Ben-Hur plays, but at it's height, Rome was pretty damn large, including parts of England. Really, it would make most sense if they spoke with latin accents, but since I doubt anyone has any idea how the hell that would sound, they have to give them an accent of some kind, so why not british?
