I am really, really enjoying the Irish & Celtic Music podcast. Hours and hours of good stuff, very little talking. It's basically a radio station cut into segments.

Agreed, sexiest accent in the world.
Least sexy is Scouse (Liverpool)
If that's the 'cockney' one, then yeah. That's atrocious..
Best one is the Downton Abbey 'nobility' sounding accent. I would be a loyal servant for a lady that can do that.
For God's sake Grumps are you a moron? I put Liverpool in brackets, for the geographically challenged, just to make sure.
Fuck you talking about? I know that Liverpool is a city in the north of england, where the Beatles came from, famous for building ships. That's the total extent of my knowledge about it. I don't know what the hell Scouse sounds like, any more than you could tell an East Texan from a West one.
That's a big fucking state with cowboys in the south.
Ok then, Scouse is the name for the Liverpool accent. Derived from a peasant dish of the same name, similar to Irish stew but made with minced lamb rather than diced.
Cockney is the accent of Central London, to be a true cockney you have to be born within the sound of Bow bells. Bow is a district of London in the East end. Bells are what churches use to call to prayer.
Cockney rhyming slang is that thing I tried to explain to you once before, an example is "trouble and strife" which means wife.
:knowledgebomb:
ps you know how John Lennon spoke. That's scouse.

Yeah, Americans kind of fell in love with that accent, when the Fab Four came over. You won't find a lot of hate for it here.
