I'm amazed you know that!
I think British Pharaoh lives in the Ashton area of Manchester which is only about 3 to 4 miles east of where I live and the accents are noticeably different.
I've heard Molecules or was it Guitar Bizarre??? talk on a youtube vid and I'd guess his accent is south to southwest of the city centre somewhere.
Probably only a few miles from where I am, but again a different accent.
Pheurton who lives over the hills further east probably speaks with a hair lip due to centuries of inbreeding.
