Gary Barlow Says BBC Presenters are Going Native

On this morning’s BBC Breakfast, Gary Barlow accused Louise Minchin of picking up a Mancunian accent. He should know after all as he comes from Frodsham.

She in turn admitted, she does slip occasionally.

Now you can understand, why they didn’t move the program to Glasgow.

A friend of mine has told me, that since Radio 5 has moved to Manchester, he’s not been on the program. Apparently, he was told, his phone number was lost in the move to Manchester. I think though, it’s because his accent is not even South London, but North.
