I'm just surprised all of them aren't in negative numbers.

And I can guarantee that most of the people who said Brummie were probably thinking about a Black Country accent because anyone not from Birmingham thinks they are the same.

Oh and Southern Ireland = Republic of Ireland....which isn't in the UK, therefore the whole thing is nonsense.

Could you imagine how enraging it would be to try and follow a conversation between twelve different delegates of those people jibber jabbering over top of one another?

Oh and Southern Ireland = Republic of Ireland....which isn't in the UK, therefore the whole thing is nonsense. This is one thing that threw me when I looked at the list. Who knew that the Brits found Sheamus's accent sexy? I must say, as a Yank I have no idea what half of those accents sound like. Can anyone provide examples? |

Rose from Dr Who
Ellie Goulding
Simon Cowell
Worst 3:
Cheryl Cole

Aww yeah, RP for the win. I remember my English teacher when I was doing an A-Level in language used to always use me as an example whenever people asked what received pronunciation is. I just think it's a good idea to always be well spoken personally, and I feel I've done quite well considering my proximity to Liverpool!

Surprised the Estuary accent didn't make it onto the list in either category.

Cockney is the "Shine your shoes guvna?!" accent. At least, that's what I think it is.

Can anyone provide examples? Brummie: Scouse: (Language) See that's the thing though, I'm from Birmingham and no one pronounces 'you' as 'yow'. That's a Black Country thing. Which is what bothers me because I guarantee that is one people are thinking of when they say a Brummie accent. |
