Berkshire's accent is rotic...

... unless you have a computer with auto-correction in which case Berkshire becomes erotic!

Today started with cake - from my lovely guest Audrey French, pig farmer and businesswoman from Arborfield. For her "me-time", she sings with Rock Choir, and today's the day they launch "Rock Choir Volume One", with proceeds from one track going to the Refuge charity.

Which is where the cake comes in. Audrey likes to announce things with food. So she asked her niece to bake a cake to mark the occasion of the CD's launch, and she brought it into the studio to carve it up for everyone here. It seemed sacrilege to cut it up, but we forced ourselves. Very tasty.

Audrey is Berkshire born and bred. She reckons she has a Berkshire accent but I really cannot hear it. However, my next guest could - Andrew Jack, a movie dialect coach from Windsor. He coaches some of the biggest names in Hollywood and today he tried to teach me a little about the Berkshire accent, and even got me to speak a tiny bit.

The true Berkshire accent makes a meal of its "r"s (that's rotic, apparently), minimises the "l"s at the end of words and flattens its "uh" sounds! And that was what I learned in just a few minutes. With a movie star, Andrew would spend many hours, days and even months getting it right, while the actor is in make-up, relaxing over a cuppa, or learning lines which are often delivered at the last minute, throwing rehearsals into panic.

Tomorrow is the first day of the Hampton Court Flower Show. Debbie McGee was there for us this morning, with an exclusive preview of this year's show, and here she is with the designer of the Lego garden, Paula Young.
