Possibly? Or possibly it's a performance vs. linguistics difference in definition? *shrug*
I would like to point out that if you stray from Dublin to Leeds, you are hitting two extremely different accents
Seriously it's awful. *laughing* At this point I do most of my accents by ear -- that is, my Scottish voice is actually just David Tennant, my Irish voice is Colin Farrell in In Bruges, my Cockney voice is I don't even know what -- and I spent a couple months working on a show set in Northern England where the whole cast spoke in a Leeds dialect. So anything that's not straight British strays up north at times. (Of course, then my Minnesota/Fargo/Sarah Palin voice will inexplicably wander into Ireland, so . . .).
(*notes!* One day I will do these all scientifically and with training and they will be GOOD! *proclaims*)
