  • No one in Oldham speaks like that. Well maybe the really old people, but no one who I know. I live 20 minutes down the road from Oldham and I don't speak like that at all lol.

  • @BreadEatingPagan

    I'm very Glad to hear that - After all not everyone from Bolton speaks like Fred Dibnah !

  • How strange - my friend (and a fellow viewer of my strange efforts) tells me that they don't - so who's right ?

  • good god im glash the lancashire accent has changed otherwise the two ronnies would lose some of its charm

  • My nan still talks like that, only her accent is a lot more pronounced

  • @1DannyOAFC1 It's an archaic accent, you idiot. Some people USED to talk like that in the 1930s and earlier. What a moron you are!

  • @petejt
