a double take to
6:40
make sure that was me speaking it and it
6:43
was me being genuine with it as opposed
6:45
to me
6:46
mocking somebody else's accent it's like
6:48
well where's he picked that up from he's
6:50
it's it's like i said it's like my aunt
6:52
i would i would like to be able to just
6:54
assume an accent or if you had one and
6:56
then just take everyone by surprise by
6:58
being able to use it
6:59
[Laughter]
7:01
but if so for someone who's never been
7:03
to great britain
7:05
would you sort of say if you had to pick
7:07
a region
7:08
like i would like if i'm listening to
7:09
you i'd say you're sort of south east
7:12
but not southeast of london yes so
7:15
you're sort of the sussexy kent yes um i
7:19
would think that you're probably fair in
7:20
that assumption um but we only moved to
7:23
the sussex area in december oh really so
7:26
from where uh croydon
7:29
okay um and i've i've lived previously
7:32
in areas like beckenham
7:34
um but predominantly it's been bromley
7:37
so it's it's all within the london
7:39
suburbs of london
7:41
so again it's like there's a bit of an
7:44
accent perhaps as you've picked up in
7:46
that respect yeah but it's not the most
7:48
obvious once you place where i've come
7:50
from
7:51
and my origins so right
7:53
what accent would you do you think you
7:55
have
7:56
london i'm born and bred in cockney land
7:59
so
make sure that was me speaking it and it was me being genuine with it as opposed to me mocking somebody else's accent it's like well where's he picked that up from he's it's it'...
