As for Aussie accents in 'Neighbours' being responsible for the insertion of a question mark (rather than just the raised inflection in the spoken word), that seems a tad fanciful to me. More people have watched Coronation Street and over a longer period but it doesn't seem to have left a national linguistic impression of any kind: nowt really :hide:
    Nieghbours had a attracted a far younger demographic than Coronation Street.

        Doesn’t everyone just record MOTD, and fast forward through all the drivel from the “experts” ? :shrug:

            Opportunee - opportunity
            Difference is he tends to know what he's talking about.
            He sometimes goes a whole sentence without just vowel sounds - no consonants, it's so bad it's funny..
