Surprised Derby is rated so highly. Brian Clough’s dulcet tones used to really annoy me

Clough was born and raised in Middlesbrough. Which isn’t a city. Probably the nearest city to Middlesbrough is Durham. So his voice won’t be representative of a Derby accent. And he moved about a bit – and was even at Brighton for a short time.

Interestingly, I’d also have put Bristol and Brum at the bottom of my league table of sexy city accents.
