Terry on youtube, https://www.youtube.com/user/terrytheoddjobman, is a good example of someone who speaks with a regional accent. Linguist David Crystal pointed out that there is no one accent, known as bi-dialectism. This relates to Terry because he is just one example of people who live in Bristol; there are many other accents in the city, some strong like his, others weaker or a different accent altogether.
