Can you guess which Irish county has the sexiest accent?
The Irish county with the sexiest accent has been revealed and it's ... Derry! And with famous stars such as singers Dana and Nadine Coyle, actors James Nesbitt and Roma Downey, and poet Seamus Heaney, is it any wonder?
A Twitter poll by entertainment site Lovin.ie declared the Ulster county the winner of the sexiest accent title and plenty of Derry's neighbors performed well too.
In at number 2 was Kildare, whilst Derry’s near neighbor, Donegal, was third in the list.
Limerick came in fourth and Down placed fifth.
Carlow was declared to have the least desirable accent, and fellow midlands counties Longford and Offaly were not far behind (or is it ahead?) in the least desirable poll.
She may be from Co. Carlow but we think Saoirse Ronan's Irish accent is just great.
