And you can't beat a Wigan kebab when you are hungry - Three meat pies on a skewer;-)The most stunning examples I heard of a west country accent, Trevor, were by a bloke I used to work with. When I first met him on his home ground (Dudley) he asked me if I had just come 'strite down the om sex'. Then as he was showing me round his site he commented on some red mastic round a window 'that's prittie puttie isn't it?'
Back to bad accents - particularly Costner - anyone remember 'Robin Hood. men in tights'? Who was it said 'At least I can do a British accent? Very funny at the time anyway.
