    Scouse. Everytime I hear someone from Liverpool talk on the TV I want to tear my arms off and throw them at the telly

    I would kick it at the TV like a Roberto Carlos free kick (I would miss but it would be with a lot of power)

    Scouse for me. Not necessarily because the sound is particularly displeasing, more because it reminds me that they really do exist and only live a short distance away. It especially grates when I hear them in the Trafford Centre. They've got their own shopping mall these days, why can't they ****in' use it? Instead of travelling 30 miles and getting on my nerves? The way they eulogise about the "city of culture" you'd think they'd never want to leave, and yet they drive for 40 minutes to place they supposedly dislike to go to the same shops they have on their own doorstep <grr>

    Isn't the Scouse accent basically the same as the Mancunian one?

    Very similar, only Scouse is more friendly in my opinion.

    You may be fishing here but, NO! Scouse is more whiny, nasal and and with a phlegmy catch to it when pronouncing 'ck' or 'ke'. It also has the Irish tendancy to pronounce 'th' as 'd' as in "dey do doh don't dey don't doh" (they do though don't they though) of Harry Enfield fame.

    Does he ****. John Lennon didn't sound like a proper scouser anyway, his accent was very mild.

    A real thick Befast accent is hard to listen to as well as is a thick Strabane accent. I work in Strabane so I know all about that one.
