| Did she really say "Hay up my duck"? |
Dolly Parton has become the latest in a long list of celebs to butcher our local dialect in an attempt to curry favour with the inhabitants of the East Midlands.
Click here to listen to Dolly's mangulation along with Prince Harry and Angelina Jolie having a go.
As to the Beeb's question "Do normal people really say 'ay up me duck'? the answer is definitely yes.
One of my golfing chums, who is an ex-miner, greets me in this fashion each time we play and the terms 'duck' and 'ducky' are frequently heard in these parts. Personally I find this preferable to being addressed as 'my lover' as I once was by Gareth Chilcott, one of the most hairy-arsed and violent prop forwards to ever emerge from the West Country!
