Is that some kind of regional dialect ?

People should feel proud of where they’re from, and not hide their roots, just cos others are bigots. I think it’s a bit sad when people drop their regional accents so as to seem more sophisticated.

Could not agree more. I hate meeting folks bristol born and bred with absolutely no accent whatsoever, it’s fake and they’re trying to be something they’re not. The clifton snobby ***** are the worst culprits.

Not everyone born and bred in Bristol has a typically Bristolian accent though.

I live in Bournemouth, you’ll find a mixture of West Country, Saaaaaaaarf Coast and Oxford English RP here, all spoken by people who grew up in the town.

I thought only Sean Bean and Sean Pertwee were allowed to do advert voiceovers, it’s the law

Don’t forget Rob Brydon, although I think he covers up his Port Talbot upbringings quite well for the voiceovers. Always sounds very Welsh on QI etc though.

Once spent a very enjoyable hour or so chatting about regional accents with actress and comedian Josie Lawrence.

So I hear, she still talks about it now.

because they sound less authoritative and dictatorial, like they want to be – telling you what to buy. More like somebody you’d like to know or possibly trust. eg, Jane Horrocks thinks Tesco is good, so it must be good! she’s proper real and in right on Mike Leigh films! If tescos is good enough for Horrocks, and by association, honest to goodness northern type genuine stuff, last of the summer wine, wallace and grommit even, we’ll ignore the massive corporation. cos they’re nice an friendly and caring, like us.

I seen Jane Horrocks in Battersea Park. You fancy her don’t you? She tried it on with me but I told her to behave herself. She looked a bit skinny, so I bought her a little cake.

yeah love Jane Horrocks. She should sell Bugatti’s, ohh, this Bugatti, it’s bloomin marvellous!

Oh, hang on…

Scottish accents apparently inspire trust. Apart from Ken Stott on the Royal Bank adverts.

Begbie selling Pantyliners. oooh, I sooo wanna see that advert!
