'I always thought we didn't have one until I moved out of Blackpool'
One of the most unique and charming characteristics of the UK has to be the sheer range of accents heard across the country.
Linda Cook says there may not be an existence of a Blackpool accent "because very few locals live there now." Ian King has also suggested why this may be, saying: "Interesting question, I've often wondered that myself. "Although it does has a northern accent, it doesn't seem pronounced enough for people to recognise it. Probably due to the fact Blackpool has always had a very transient population."
Ray Ward suggested: "It does, it's a sort of "Mid Atlantic Manc." You only need to go inland as far as Kirkham and the accent becomes a more familiar Lancashire one."
