I can think of Mancunian, Scouse, Yorkshire, Brummie, Cockney, Cornish, Welsh, Aberdonian, Glaswegian and so on.

Can't think of as many American variations, but it might be that we aren't as used to them here so we don't notice the subtle differences.
Aberdeen = Drunken chav talk. xD

I love a nice Scouse accent. I much prefer people to have accents than those with the non-specific voices where you dont know where they are from. Its part of our identity.

I love our Brummie accent.:thumbs:

I love the Scouse accent too. And the way Wlesh people speak is fab <3

I've got a big farmery Irish accent. Think Colin Farrel but less Dublinish and more farmerish.:thumbs:

I don't have a particular accent - a lot of people would assume I have a bit of a Geordie accent cos I'm from the North East but a few of my mates from the Midlands and down South haven't picked up on that as much as I thought they would do.

Glaswegian, but not so harsh. I get asked if I'm really from Glasgow a lot. :laugh:

One of my mates says that the Americans have ruined the English language.:laugh:

I know what he means. They do pronounce some words rather strangely, such as aluminium.
