As an #AccentCoach I should know more about @VoicesMcr; but I've been drowning in nappies since 2019 and am only just emerging. I am having immense fun listening to all these lovely #Manchester accents! You can also have a listen online. http://manchestervoices.org

Obviously we can't comment on the sexiness or otherwise of the Manchester accent. However, we would like to clarify a comment in this article that 'residents from Levenshulme, Stretford and Moss Side are likely to sound 'posh''. 1/
