I'd say that's largely already happened and continues to. I know there's sometimes effort to give characters proper accents, but it's usually not too good. I did find it amusing to watch a show like Blue Bloods where they're all a local family, but all have different natural accents.
- ghaff 2y agoYou also have places like Boston with very sub-regional accents. Southie accents are not really pervasive nor are Beacon Hill Brahmin accents. And, as you suggest, many of the residents are from all over the place.

People from Bootle will have a different accent to people from Toxteth for example. 2 miles through a tunnel and you have the softer Scouse accent of the Wirral, the further from Birkenhead to Chester you get the less Scouse they sound. Head south on the M62 and the Manc accent slowly melts into the Scouse, starting at roughly the Runcorn area.
