    Hey everyone,

    'Oo do you fink as deh wehst Essex accent on the tayvay, the raahhydiaayh, or in the maydiah?

    Translation: Who do you think has the worst Essex accent on the TV, the radio, or the media?

    I love (to hate) a fake cockney Essex accent! Kind of like the D4 one.

    Less reality TV; more geography.

    Jodie Marsh. If she's still considered to be famous, that is. Remember seeing an interview with her and she was only a few fag-soaked notes away from a Fraaaaank Butcher impression.

    Watching a repeat of 'Great British Bake Off' during the week and that Jo woman from the second series definitely qualifies.

    Jo Brand or a contestant called Jo?

    Contestant. I think she won that series. She wasn't the best on there by a long shot but she constantly pulled the sob story of how she 'didn't have much', she'd married young and was had 'only ever been a wife and mum'
    Made it sound as though she was just scraping by, living hand to mouth.
    It came out afterwards that she lived in a farmhouse worth more than half a million and her husband was in jail for fraud.
    I remember not liking her all through the series. She really did a number on everyone.

    Always thought Estuary was a mix of Cockney & RP.

    Gemma Collins. Her accent isn't any different to others but she's an absolutely deplorable excuse for a human being.

    Not media but I remember that horrible pregnant women from series two of The Office, as well as her awful personality she had this chalk on a blackboard estuary type accent.
