Welcome to Not the Queen’s English!

This is an extended edition of our episode about UK accents. Normally, extended editions will only be available through our Patreon, but this first one is on us.

In this episode, we talk you through some of the many different accents of the UK and how they are seen in popular culture here. We also talk about our own accents, so that you can start recognising the differences between Holly’s English accent and Murray’s Scottish one.

The terms we explain in this episode include: plummy, Geordie, Scouse, Weegie, and RP. For all the things we mention but don’t fully explain, check out the Cheat Sheet for this episode, which you can download from our Patreon page, even if you do not subscribe to our Patreon. Cheat sheets for future episodes will only be available to Patreon supporters, who also get access to our 35-page PDF accent guide. If you’d rather buy this (for just £7.50!), you can head over to our Ko-fi shop.
