    "Ipswich?... Well 'as olus bin there!" Best line in the video 😂
    I'd never made the connection with the Aussie and New England accents although I was mistaken for an Aussie when I was in Scotland once.
    Great video

Love the interview with the man who knows all about Suffolk. Very similar to the humor in Maine where I live.

    That was an excellent story about Suffolf. The guest you interviewed is someone I would have so many questions, my dad was born in Beccles Suffolk in 1921 he left to sussex before world War 2. Would love to find out about his birth place somehow. Im in America, too far to have a weekend in Suff, thank you.

And plus I swap my cockney accent for your accent anyday haha at least you sound educated. I have a few pals in Suffolk that are the same age as me 21-25 and none of them have the suffolk accent. It's such a shame because it's such a unique accent and like you said, it sounds very much australian.

      As an Aussie I never really knew where our accent came from and the first hint I got was when watching a documentary on a guy restoring old warbird engines.
      He lived in East Anglia(just down the road from you guys?)
      At first I thought he might be an expat Aussie but when I googled RUclips for videos on East Anglia it kept throwing up a lot of Suffolk videos.
      After watching them I knew there was a connection.
      But yours was the first one to actually claim a connection to the Aussie accent.
      It is, however, normal Aussie.
      Not sure of the origins of Ocker.
      Yanks tend to use a Cockney twang when emulating it but that definitely ain’t it!
