I love the TwistedSifter Posts and subscribe to it.
This came today. I'm curious to know what our British Isles friends think of this!

:lol: Brilliant, how can one person do all those accents just like that one in one long sentance

[Rita C.]

Really well done! I was hoping he would do an Isle of Man accent as I haven't a clue what they sound like, never been there.

[Lorna B.]

Isle of Man was beautiful. Was the accent different? Probably. But don't ask me, I can't keep all the areas and their accents separate!

[Lorna B.]

That was interesting & impressive. Shame he didn't do the Geordie accent too, which is from Newcastle-upon-Tyne in the North East (above Yorkshire)

[Dawn S.]

Wow! That was pretty cool! And, I understood everything he said! Unlike a lot of British movies that I have seen! I really have a hard time understanding their "English!"

[wendy w.]

Probably a Yorkshire film :lol: ouch Rosemary. It's ok I love Yorkshire my sons are both Yorkshiremen

[wendy w.]

He totally missed out the Midlands (& Derbyshire) too :wink: As for me I am a Berkshire lass, just relocated to Yorkshire - via London, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire & Nottinghamshire. Hey-ho what it is to travel about the country (and trying to find fabric shops...)

[wendy w.]

Wow! That WAS impressive!

I occasionally get a phone call from lady who lives in 'deepest' Wales. She sounds delightful, almost musical, but I have real problems understanding what she actually says. I had the chance to spend a weekend in a workshop with her, but went for one of the other options, because I'm sure I would have been mentally exhausted after trying to understand her for a few hours, let along 2 days. I guess I'm not relocating to Wales anytime soon.

By the way, even after over 30 years in England I still speak with a noticeable German accent.

I know the feeling. "Two countries separated by a common language." I often resort to "smile and nod". Heading up to Northumberland this weekend. Wish me luck...
