Esther McVey

It is, close to Merseyside. Don't quite know where Devon came from! And I suppose a lot of people will be saying California can keep their Nazi sympathizing, groping former actor!

Quick question - did Esther McVey ever do any continuity announcing for the BBC? I'm sure I've heard her voice behind some of the idents.

Devon?!?!? Well to be honest she doesn't have a scouse accent, it does sound more Southern than it does Liverpudlian. I think the Wirral is close to Ellesmere Port if I am not mistaken. But they had a report about this on NWT a couple of weeks ago, but she apparently made a speech at the Annual Conservative Party Conference in Blackpool. (How suprsising ) Though I am not in the Wirral and I am not 18 (Yet) see if anyone for Warrington South is going to do the same thing as her, probably not.

Rather funny when you compare:

California: Arnold Swarchenegger!!!! (WOW)
Wirral: Ester McVey. (Different kind of WOW)

Yes yes yes, I read Wirral this morning, but by this evening in my mind it had turned into Devon.... somewhere in Torbay in fact.

Yes, it's The Wirral

I hate to be pedantic, but Wirral hasn't been in Cheshire since the mid 1970s. Politically, it is part of Merseyside although it has its own unitary local authority.

What, Esther McVey doesn't have a Liverpudlian accent?????

This is one of those threads which should carry a health warning...
