All UK accents are fantastic - its one of the things that makes the UK great. However I do get a bit annoyed by people who put on fake "cockerney" accents just because they are from the south!

Brummies. Sorry Woody, mate! It's just it doesn't matter how intelligent you might be if you come from Birmingham, that accent makes you sound thick as pigshit.
Belfast... Sorry folks, that's too rough for a Celtic accent (and that's Keltic, not Seltic!!) Down in the republic and out west, they're nicer accents.
Broad Glaswegian isn't attractive either, and living in Portsmouth at the moment, I know the 'London on Sea' accent they've got down here grates every time someone speaks.... I just can't work out why no one else in Hampshire's got a related accent!

Oh don't say that I love the Liverpudlian accent! I think, since coming to live in Scotland, broad Scots like Glaswegians or people from Greenock have a horrible accent. It's much nicer when it's not so broad and rough. (No offence to the Scots, I love ya and your beautiful country!!!!)x

I has to be the Brummies accent. It just sounds so.... Even though there not all toothless simpletons thats the impression I get when I hear it.

The British public school posh accent.At least all the others have a regional origin but that one is just a tool to put the peasants in their place

Cockney is by far the worst.

If they do not sound their t's and h's then that makes me cringe, no matter what accent.
