A guide to understanding the intricacies and nuances of one of Britain's most colourful dialects. It explains the idiosyncrasies of local and national dialects from Dundonian to Australian.

Born in Glasgow in 1926, the multi-faceted comic actor and impressionist Stanley Baxter became a household name across Britain in 1959 when he appeared on the BBC's satirical sketch show On the Bright Side, co-hosting with Betty Marsden, for which he was awarded the BAFTA for Light Entertainment Performance. Baxter has seen his television legacy honoured with a lifetime achievement award at the British Comedy Awards and two television tribute programmes.
