It's a tiny ass island yet whenever a British person hears another British person they'll be like "Oi guvenor! I know exactly where in Merry-ol-England they are from! Clearly they're from Bovinshire-upon-Weavilton!" And Bovinshire-upon-Weavilton is a town like 10 minutes away from where they live.

Nah it's neat.

What sucks is when they make media that assumes everyone else knows which goofy accent belongs to which corner of their country and what pile of stereotypes they have against each other.

its nice when regional sterotypes are so easily identifiable, in the US it can take half a conversation before you get to make fun of where they're from
