    I like most of them. But some do grate.

    I thought the south American drawl on True Blood would grate after a while but it's surprising how quickly you get used to it ......roll on 10pm

    I like to incorporate certain phrases from different regions. One of these is y'all - from Southern USA. I also use 'go 'ed' from scouse quite a bit. I've recently picked up 'round the wrekin' - a west midlands thing.

    Completely agree with you Derby tup i've got a west midlands accent, and this is probably going to open the floodgates for lots of jibes but get really effing offended when people say that people from my region are stupid , thick or any other derogatory term. Regional accents are what gives our country so many of it's qualities, variety is much better than one homogenous drone.

    I'm not a fan of Midlanders accent or Southern accent (sorry SS hehe).

    Saying faarst and laaarst, arfter, and such like is too much for me!

    I do find cockney very entertaining, it makes me laugh.

    My least favourite northern accent is the North East for sure.
