    I'm a native Totnesian - priced out now, sadly, by wealthy incomers. It's pronounced TOT-nes, not Tot-NESS.

      lol, sorry to hear that. It is sad that the locals are actually not local. I asked Scott to pronounce it both ways, sounded the same🫣

      @@TheHadwinsTV Emphasis on the first syllable - like London, Glasgow, Dublin, etc. You can always tell when someone lives in Totnes, but doesn't come from there, because they always say TotNESS - like Loch Ness. It should sound like TOTnis. Yes... it's like a form of cultural imperialism, but enacted in our own country: the culture of money, basically. I was brought up in the area in the '60s and '70s, when Totnes was still very much a traditional Devon market town, and where you heard the native Devonian dialect spoken everywhere. There were people there who could date their family line in the area all the way back to the Domesday Book... and before that! I lived in Harberton - a village 3 miles from Totnes. At that time, it was mainly inhabited by native Devonians. Generally, they were agricultural workers, living in tied cottages (like my family). It started getting taken over in the early '70s, with wealthy outside developers moving in. Harberton now is basically unaffordable to anyone who works in agriculture - and even many people on professional salaries. It's one of the wealthiest villages around. I loved it as a boy, growing up. I don't know it now. Geographically, it's the same place. But nearly all of the old families have been displaced. Totnes now feels to me - as someone who knew it as it was back then - like a cross between Glastonbury and Richmond-upon-Thames. It still retains many local charms. But the native culture has largely gone, replaced by the homogeneity of middle-class money. On a (rarer now) return visit a few years back, I mentioned to one 'new local' wag that I didn't hear many true Devon voices there any more. He laughingly retorted 'Ah, we dress all the locals up as ponies and put them out on Dartmoor for the tourists.' He was extremely lucky that I'm not a violent man.
