Yep it swings both ways I'm afraid. You'll have a BBC presenter who can pronounce a village of 350 people in the foothills of Afghanistan perfectly to the vowel, yet insist on calling Los Angeles, Los Angelees. Wouldn’t it be more correctly pronounced Los Ang-hell-ez? If we’re going all the way back.

Reminds me of an episode of Countdown where that wonderful Janet Street Porter had a rant about people who cant get their pronounciations right. ( Yes I watch Countdown, yes I am old).

I used to put the manager's name in front of Red and Blue but got fed up with changing it. If someone cool becomes our manager then maybe.. Red and Blue Army! |
