Well I've a broad accent of some kind ........ but I think I sound more Yorkshire, where I spent four years.
I reckon the Manc accent seems to be more pronounced now than it was when I was young.
Manc does sound kinda rebellious to me ........ so I can see normal Derbyshire might sound posh to them and Yorkshire/ Derbyshire like me might be hilarious.
Very few people down here guess where I'm from ......... they know it's north. But then you hear precious few true Devon accents down here.
I've spent time Derbyshire, Yorkshire, Stoke (uuuuuuuugggghhhhh, still recovering), Gloucestershire and Devon.
