    Being from nearby, and born in the 80s, I can say that these accents are still common nowadays. However, they were far less common on TV than they were in the population then, and the same is true now. I suppose Eddie Dempsey and Mick Lynch are the most prominent people on TV nowadays who have non-"TV accents".

      Both Dempsey and Lynch are second generation Irish immigrants. There’s no criticism, but I’ve recently started to notice the outsized and extraordinary impact of Irish immigrants on mainland Britain. We’re lucky to have them.
