    Across the UK, the Birmingham accent was the one parents would least like their child to use. In Birmingham, only 8% of parents said they would encourage their children to use the local accent.

    People that say "Couwd" and "Ouwd"

    Where the hell does this come from? I heard an old woman talking like this, this morning and I remember when I used to know this lad from Wigan who would always say "It's couwd out there today". There's no need for it.

    Can I also add those people that pronounce the words Cook, Look and Book.... Cuke, Buke and Luke to the list of annoying talkers
