You know, I think the best way to find that out is to watch some films. "The Secret of Roan Inish" is good movie for the Irish accent. "Wallace and Grommet" films are good for your basic English (not British) accent--actually the English accent changes quite a bit from the south to the north of England.
And for Scots, well, maybe one of the films like "Braveheart".
You could also ask the library for tapes to listen to. Your question is about something you need to hear in order to get a feel for it.

Well, british accents are just cool, but scottish and irish accents are so dang attractive that it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Especially scottish.

It sounds different, use your ears.. And there is no "British Accent" just like there aren't "American" or "Canadian" accents. There are Cockney, Limerick, Glasconian, Liverpublian, etc.
In Canada there are Albertan, Ontarian, Maritimer accents.
In the US there are Texan, Alabaman, Bostonian, Brooklyn.
