A softened Cockney accent

7:59

cockney land

7:59

so but it's softened out because you

8:01

know i've been traveling all over the

8:03

world so

8:04

i don't speak cockney except when i've

8:06

had too much of dread i don't

8:08

particularly like it because no i

8:12

actually think

8:13

some strong

8:15

i say accents but london is it's it's

8:18

bad english because everything's cut off

8:20

yeah yeah

8:22

and i've been in the travel business in

8:24

my days and i have a theory you might

8:26

like this no go for it i'm interested is

8:28

when people live in cities yeah

8:31

everything's speeded up

8:32

so

8:34

londoners go all right make your way

8:35

everything's fast right in italy i lived

8:38

in rome for a while romans speak

8:42

okay

8:43

it's very quick italian and hong kong

8:47

is very very quick chinese because

8:49

you're in a city

8:51

so everything has to be speeded up and

8:55

the languages so bits are cut off at the

8:57

end and that's what's i think it's bad

8:59

about cockney because it's not like

9:00

finishing the word like you know

9:02

everyone's it's like that

9:05

so

9:06

i wouldn't say it's a nice accent at all

9:08

you know so uh i really like your theory

9:10

i never ever really it's true is that

9:13

why like

9:15

is that why like leeds and yorkshire so

9:16
