Default Best and worst accents
Worst: Scouse accents have to be the worst, they're just disgusting. Also the really strong Welsh accents as they're very annoying

Best: Thick Scottish and Irish accents, they're amazing

Anyway ... best - Scouse, Cockney, Irish, Northern Irish, "Jafaican" (new inner city London accents/West Indian twang). I'm also pretty keen on Jamaican/Trinidadian accents.

Worst - most African accents and Brummie/Black Country are terrible. Not a massive fan of the East Anglia (Norfolk/Suffolk) accents either.

The rest are probably somewhere in between.

Like most Irish & American accents (apart from really southern American ones).

Most regional English, Scottish & Welsh accents are pretty bad though
