    When this came out and suggested cockney was sexy I realised it was a spoof. It was a parade of the worst accents (apart from Yorkshire and Scots) in the nation, and pushed the standard idea that the southern Wales accent is _the_ Welsh accent - but the proper one is from the areas where the speak Welsh. As it's a spoof I am surprised Liverpool didn't win.

    My favourite, most attractive British accent is the Cheshire accent, RP, elegant, just a touch of Northern. I guess the closest famous person with this accent is Ken Barlow from Coronation Street. Generally, subtle accents and well spoken is my preference. I guess I'm biased as I speak like this myself! I also rather like a subtle Welsh accent like Jamie Owen the ex BBC Wales Today newsreader. Living in London sadly though one doesn't hear these kinds of people, am very deprived!

    As you said, RP isn't a natural accent. It's an accent of class/money and education, so it doesn't count. Welsh comes in different forms. You've got the broad version like those shown in the clip, then you've got southern Welsh found in places like Cardiff, which doesn't sound much different to West Country just across the Bristol Channel. Speaking of West Country, you have soft West Country found more in urban areas, then you've got the very broad "pirate/farmer" West Country found in more remote rural areas. There's also subtle differences in lingo, such as Devonian's penchant for for saying "me luver" (i.e. friend or buddy), which other counties in the West Country don't use. And no, I don't agree with your picks, especially your choice for No. 1. Although I don't come from the area, I'd put London Estuary English at number one for easiest to listen to British accents, followed by West Country, Southern Welsh, then maybe Birmingham and Cockney.
