West Country
This week we head out West and find that a large area of England has what's known as a 'West Country Twang'.

We discuss the distinctive features of this accent: vowel sounds, consonant sounds and intonation. At the end of the episode, we each choose a sound from West Country to go into the new accent cauldron.
