Sexy Bristolian Accent | George Hancorn

After being voted the FIFTH SEXIEST ACCENT IN THE UK, I went to see what all the fuss was about...

[@danosmond278]

No Bristolians were harmed... or interviewed in the making of this film

[@vincentruvo6988]

Sexy. That's funny,

[@leilaarabi2905]

You should’ve talked to Bristolions so we hear the accent

[@dancingcosby]

Why did you bother going to Bristol if you didn't talk to anyone from Bristol?

[@paulputnam8211]

Someone should tell this guy that the Bristol accent & the West Country accent are NOT THE SAME !

[@MrNickHunt1]

Lucky to find a Bristolian in Bristol these days. All vegan snowflakes from Surrey now.

[@nicobsm111saintmichel7]

Snowflakes Surreys whines lil Nicky, who seems to have inherited mad cow disease or is just plain neuron stricken?!

[@MrAjripley]

[@FarhanAmin1994]

Loved this video and your humorous style. 😊❤

[@notyourdaughter666]

“I’m gonna go find myself a wife!” I AM RIGHT HERE

[@mafismathis8012]

ok... that is interesting :) are you a bristolian with a rhotic accent? your videos seem a bit random.... we need more west country accent youtubers I'd love to watch videos with you speaking plus your social status and confidence will increase quite a bit :)

[@JackBouchierr]

I moved out of Bristol to New Zealand, in 2009 when I was 7 and I remember that little walk way where this video is based!

[@teooooooooo4779]

Ayeeeeee, hope you enjoy it here ;-)

[@shelleycaldwell5442]

[@youandwhosearmy6339]

4:10 ... and here we have a Bristolian Herring gull who is not at all impressed

[@APG-fu6gk]

I lived in Bristol at Michael's Restaurant on Hotwells Rd in 1980. A friend of mine had just purchased the Pump House. I would love to see it in 2023. The people have a lovely accent only second to their warm and welcoming personalities. 😊😊😊

[@bergfpv6486]

Still waiting to hear it, and then the video ends. I want my minutes back. And if I did hear it, I didn't hear it. Just heard English.

[@rbeygarcia]

I think what MIGHT be the case is Bristolians are more attractive. So conversely, what comes out of their mouth is automatically sexy. For example you're adorable. Therefore, I'm inclined to drool over everything you say, without regard to how it sounds. If this happens enough times, one can see how the perception would begin to form that Bristolians "talk" sexy. In this video alone, you spoke to some self-avowed locals that seem to lend my point some credit. The other thing is: Are they referring to Bristolian in it's original iteration, or the way younger people nowadays speak it?

[@ButIAlwaysRemeber]

plutorama you fuckin ledgend mate your gert lush 😅 fanks im from bristol and people say im ugly u made my day 😂

[@leonakadir3833]

[@ct83oldaccount43]

[@fxserfy7258]

[@indmych]

If you want to hear the accent browse on. They do talk about the accent a fair amount though.

[@ct83oldaccount43]

[@violetshark]

[@SkinnyEMedia]

When I think Bristolian or West Country, I just keep thinking Aardman claymation and trip-hop musicians. Sorry!

[@georgeboyd25]

Jesus Christ two of them are my teachers!?

[@TheMindBolt]

[@matarahmadal_atif9359]

Wicked*

[@ladylaois8184]

Shoulda talk to some proper job like

[@goombabear]

I love the Northern UK accents and the Geordie accent. The Bristol accent always made me think of farmers who are a little stupid. But it's still a comforting accent all the same.

[@beastmr919]

bristol sounds more like americans accent than british general accent

[@kelly-anntomasi788]

Ghkjdf Hbjhffh I'm in bristol and I don't sound American haha but everyone's different

[@kegal]

Ghkjdf Hbjhffh we gave the Americans their strong 'r', apparently.

[@sonsofthunder915]

You're absolutely correct. Many Yankee accents sound like they're from west country. But, if one thinks about it many Yanks ancestors originally came from the Cornwall, Devon area. Plus, I agree with Kelly-Ann too, not all Bristolians sound that way, but enough do sound like Yanks to tell what part of England the "Americans" came from. Neil is right too, I'm told we Yanks get that strong "r" from Somerset.

[@alex-sv8ru]

Neil Andblowmee I don't think so. Back in the 18th century, most English people had rhotic accents (accents with the hard R). Non-rhoticity (soft R) became popular after the American Revolution.

[@liviablackmore8560]

I love my accent but the one thing I get annoyed about is how it always gets compared to an american accent

[@GeminiMoon1994]

Bristolian is literally the ugliest UK accent. I'd rather hear nails on a chalkboard.

[@gdfggggg]

D PJ Liverpool is worst

[@Thomes-Maisling]

@@gdfggggg No it's Brummie. Something about the way they draw out words makes the sound a bit slow in the head.

[@susanl-v4173]

Love Bristolian accent
