Scouse. Slightly less than when I moved south 15 years ago but still strong enough
Cockney init.
Pretty much…

I was totally horrified to discover WCA speaks with a brash German/Welsh accent
Brumaaaay
Judd, not young Billy
How man.
Birmingham accent here.. not black country.
I'm amused at the Northernists who claim to have "educated Northern" accents. I'm a southerner and I can tell the difference between you lot, "educated" or not.
Me - not-very-posh public school with traces of a North Western accent picked up through years of living with the monkeys.
Mid Atlantic Estuary - er dude.
Northumbrian
Ey up and sithee.
Leeds , West Yorkshire . But a bit more 'Yorkshire' than the majority of Leeds dwellers.
Should be Aberdonian but they all think I'm terribly posh. While my English relatives all think I'm just a little common (and unintelligible) with my slight scots inflection.
'Point is thes a diffrence tween Northin and educated northin, which dunt cum cross in text.
The point is that there is a difference between Northern and Educated northern which doesn't come across in text.
I never try to hide where I'm from, but can change the way that I speak to suit the situation.
Fen.
But proper Cambs fen, not Lincolnshire pretend fenners.
Except when I teach in Yorkshire anywhere, when apparently I am Australian.
Racists!
Colonial. Which makes it difficult for Brits to tell a person's class origins, so they have no idea how to judge me....
I would say public school with a healthy dose of Sarf Lahdan.
Unfortunately I'm told I actually sound like

Born in Lancashire, raised in Cumbria and moved back to Lancashire twenty years ago so a bit of a mishmash of lancs/ Cumbrian. More Lancs now though. Well, until we go visiting friends in coniston, within 10 mins I'm back speaking how I used to. 😕 Anybody else find this?
a deeper version of Stephen Hawking
Saarf Lundun with a touch of Surrey (mid atlantic mockernee surfer) and a bit of irish phrase structure cos yer one's a fiery galwegian. Thats when I'm sober. If I'm in the pub I have an annoying tendancy to mimick other accents and to make things worse, I'm really quite good at it 😕
We seem to be missing Kent'ish, Cornish, Devon'ish, and I've not spotted a Welsh one yet, closest to East Anglian is colournoise, (my lil sis has a strong accent from... Chatteris) Lancashire we've not had yet..
The best part of this is guessing where your new found friends are from when on bike trips abroad, before they open their mouths. That's great fun, I've met loads of Northern Germans who can tell Southern Bavarians, Dutch whom have accents that sound Belgian and/or Norwegian and Italians who you can just about tell what region they ride out from.
I love it.
For the record MrsBouy has a soft North East (Redcar) accent and its sooooo sexy.

they all sound the same to me
Thick, virtually incomprehensible, Northern Derbyshire accent.
I sound like a ****ing idiot.
Teesside + West Yorkshire + London
Sound well weird
Kentish ...But not Chatham
I raise you Teesside + South Yorkshire + Yaarkshire + London.
Also sounds a bit weird (so I'm told) with the added benefit of sounding like I smoke 50 B&Hs a day and being largely inaudible.
Lancashire we've not had yet..
*ahem*
@Bikebouy. Chatteris eh? Grew up in a little village not far from there that was so small and insular it made Chatteris look like that London.
Yorkshire despite nearly 2 decades in scotchland....say glass not glaas...sound posh in Yorkshire and clearly English up here...travelling for 5 years also messed it up
A bit of BBC, Geordie (only few words) and a strong hint ... something similar to 6:37 in the accent challenge clip below ...
Many people think mine is Orcadian, others think it's Aberdonian, and a few think it's South African. It's Annanese.
Southern, middle class English. Received, yet toned down due to fear of ridicule. 15 yrs in yorkshire and no loss of accent. Have the mick taken out of me at work for it? But it always gets heard and things get done as a result.
I don't have to listen to it so I don't really mind.
Elocution lessons anyone?
You know, to smooth things out a bit or perhaps make you morph into a new environment?
You knows it!
any awful combination of rural and london 😳
Leeds with a hint of Bradford. but not so much as Bratfud
Generic Scottish. Someone (another Scot) once suggested Ewan Macgregor, which I don't really get, he's clearly posher than I am. I'm much more glottalstoppy.
propur 'ampshire. gets mucg thicker if i hang out with my family too much.
or perhaps make you morph into a new environment?
I don't see how that'd work, I couldn't understand a bloody word he said.
Non descript southern with a slight twinge of Norfolk on certain words.
A cross between Bolton and Manc. Although when drunk its full on broad Mancunian, the scummy style like the Gallagher brothers. Born in Salford, moved to Wythenshawe and now living in Bolton.
Missus was Born in Bolton, moved to Darwen but speaks more Manc than Yonner.
YamYam ay it
Black Country not a brummie
