I love the confidence of the black woman who is so proud of her Black Country accent. Two thumbs up for her!

This is a standard midlands accent, nothing Black Country here imo

These guys were compltely comprehensible, though. My Dad used to live in the Midlands, and I was in a pub with him once in Halesowen trying to converse with this old guy who had a really strong Black Country accent, and I couldn't understand a word of it. It was all vowels. It didn't even sound like any form of English.

There are different varieties of accents even in wolverhampton someone will speak completely different to one end of town to another...although this maybe something to do with class too....someone in Tettenhall could speak completely different to someone from Bilston...but then there are different culture influences too...ive been to America where people thought my accent was cute....then I've been working in other parts of the uk where people will intentionally ask me to pronounce different words so they can gain some humour from it....who knows...be proud what ever your accent you hold.

As an American with English roots, I have always been intrigued by the diversity of accents over relatively short distances.

If they wanted a true black country accent should have gone to Cradley heath or lower Gornal. I'm Wednesbury, black country girl & proud of it I love our accent, go on hols abroad if another local hears you it's brilliant we always have a laugh n giggle even though we strangers it's part of our nature to be friendly

I had no idea until I fell for someone with the accent. Now this is my favorite accent because of him. :)

When i went to work in Cradley Heath when i lived in Tipton in the 70s they couldn't understand a word i said and vice versa, if you look it up you will find that the Black Country accent is the closest you will find to old English.

I love the Black country accent. It's one of the nicest in the Uk.

If yo wa nt ta he ya a proper black country accent goo to dudley not dudlay like the brummies say but dudley which is pronounced dudlee by real dudley folks, an learn ta spake propa.

There are very few speakers with a Black Country twang

It's the casual drug deal going on in the background at

This must not have been too bad of an accent. Sounded perfectly understandable to me.

I love the accent.

aynock and aylie, now thats real black country!

As a Spanish native speaker I wonder if you can listen to the difference between Spanish accents (I mean Spanish from Latin America countries)

Not a single "am ya" or "ay we". Are you sure these people are from Wolverhampton?

The proper deep Black Country accent is in Dudley area, Birmingham and Wolverhampton are similar but a bit different

I'm from the north east and to be honest I can't tell it apart from the Birmingham accent but I dare say it'd be like them telling a south Durham accent apart from Geordie?
