    Kevin's Limerick of the Day

    Van Gone

    Van Gogh in a bar by the pier
    Was asked, “Would you like, sir, a beer?”
    He replied to the gent
    In a Cockney accent
    “No thanks, because I have one ‘ere”

  2. Peaky Blinders, Season 2, Episode 2
    The first appearance of Alfi Salomon, played by Tom Hardy.
    He’s speaking the hardest #Cockney I’ve ever heard. Really challenging to understand.

  3. 🎉🦸‍♂️Hold onto your chimney sweeps! The man with elastic limbs and accents thicker than British fog allegedly turns 100, according to The Guardian's marathon-scroll of self-congratulatory drivel. Maybe by 200 he'll master a #Cockney accent! 😆🎂

    You said: "What is so different about the Taiwanese dialect of Hokkien that it needs a different name?" I gave you direct answers with the examples of #Québecois (which uses a different name from #French 🇫🇷) and #Taiwanese 🇳🇫 which contains many words not used in #Hokkien 🇨🇳 (Does #Cockney deserve its own name?), and you're still not satisified.

  5. Jetzt gibt es auf „That‘s TV“ noch ein bisschen #Benidorm im englischen original. Immer gut um mit den vielen englischen Akzenten klar zu kommen.
    Heute ist einer mit einem heftigen #Cockney dabei.

  9. I've invented a new genre- Cockney Noir- and it's glorious:

    “I ain’t lived a bleedin’ good life. I’ve been proper naughty, worse than you can Adam and Eve.”
    “Ya know that’s bang tidy, ‘cause if ya actually was as innocent as ya pretend to be, we’d never get nowhere.”
