samderrida correct when I worked it out recently I would say it’s around the 75 mark which sounds a lot but not when you think each county has its own unique one , double that depending what part you’re from so 64 , had 6 for each of the three main cities ( Dublin , cork and Belfast ) and it’s different sides then add in some for the Aran islands off Galway and there you have it . Even in the Irish family I’ve got still there they all have different ones because they aren’t all from the same area or county for that matter some in Dublin , some in cork , one in limerick but originally from Kildare , and the rest down in Tipperary so vastly different just within my relatives .

[@ems7623]

I find that most Brits can't come very close to a standard American accent (say, vaguely Midwestern), but if they are good at accents they can manage New York and the deep south. I always found that curious and inexplicable. I struggle with all accents. And, for the life of me, i still have a hard time distinguishing Australian from New Zealand, something every Australian and New Zealander I've ever met finds utterly absurd. But my countrymen are notoriously bad with accent recognition, much less imtiation. So that's my excuse. - formerly an American expat in London

The story of the pigs in the river reminds me of my schooldays. During a geography lesson about British steel industry we were told of works in Perthshire by our Scottish teacher (in Birmingham). For homework we had to write an essay on the lesson, so I wrote about the works in Persia which got a sarcastic note asking which part of the UK was in the middle east.

That last line is an absolute gem. Well done Jimmy.

I was surprised the Chewbacca one made it in until Harrison Ford in a Stephen Fry costume started speaking

[@richmarsh5029]

Brilliant ...Stephen Fry... made this show so enjoyable to watch

[@sezkins79]

I simply adore his anecdotes with his showbiz luvvies 😍

[@bs5750]

I've been helping a Vietnamese guy learn English, now for the next level, this.

[@sharyndoyle6362]

Stephen Fry, what an amazing man. He always surprises me. He is highly intelligent ( before QI ) he has great whit and drama and he also does great accents. To do an Aussie accent is great, Allen does a great Aussie accent as well. But Stephen Fry, one of the best !!

[@doncooper6801]

Wit.

[@MisterDevel]

That's the best Australian impression I've ever heard. Good show

[@aurelmatthews4164]

Billy Connelly's accent and speaking manners is funny, Stephen Fry impersonating his mannerisms is somehow hilarious.

[@saffronodonnell9750]

His Aussie accent is wonderful! This man is such a treasure!

[@Jonse70]

If I could pick one person to have dinner with, it would be Stephen Fry.

[@JaneDoe-ci3gj]

Agreed!😊

[@Mortthemoose]

Yep....me too ☺

[@padstowphantom]

I know this was about Stephen, but Aisling Bea how I love thee.

[@DursunX]

Bill Bailey's impressions are hilarious too

[@exprime8872]

I was very impressed with his South African accent. As an Australian, I find it extremely difficult to do that one without sounding like I'm butchering a New Zealand accent.

[@DavidtheSwarfer]

@@exprime8872 everyone butchers the South African accent (-: What he was trying there was a Afrikaans tainted English, which only applies to about 2% of the population. Much more common (with variations) is English mixed with one of the 11+ African languages which applies to some 45+ million speakers. And no-one tried to speak like this guy kzbin.info . Wow. I have to listen very carefully to make out what he is saying. (Yes, I'm South African and speak just 2 of the 11 official languages).

[@Sigma1_969]

We all know knowledge is power!! That makes Stephen Superman...love him.
