I've a fondness for the Preston accent of my northern cousins - all voiced consonants and strong 'R's.
West Devon and Cornish accents are interesting - some sound almost Canadian.
But I have an embarrassing liking for posh scouse.

Quite like the Irish accent, like her off the One Show.

 

[Globalti]

God yes, Irish girls whispering sweet nothings in your ear.....

 

[John the Monkey]

Welsh.

 

[snorri]

Scottish,

Irish

There are many Scottish, Irish and Welsh accents, could we have a little more precision here please:?:

Hebridean Scottish is lovely. The Canadian accents you hear on Ice Road Truckers and that lumberjck programme remind me very much of Hebridean Scottish.

Stratford upon Avon.

Some of them sound almost New Yorker.
Some of them sound Tokyo.

Most of them sound Eastern European, probably Dankowice.

 

[weely]

geordie!!

I like the Geordie accent, as well.

And a Scottish (God knows they all sound the same, but I know there's a difference ) accent on a woman (like Carol Whatshername, one of the BBC weathergirls).

Welsh and Indian sound the same when talking to someone from either of those countries on the telephone!

Girls with Liverpool accents are lovely.

Unfortunatley I am one of those people who copies accents all the time so mine has ended up being a right odd mixture!

 

[Andy in Sig]

I think the Edinburgh accent is good for delivering dry humour in.
