Transcript

00:00I've had my English accent back for three days, and I am so confused.

00:06It hasn't come back slurred or stuttered.

00:09It's come back quite normal.

00:11The only thing I'm having to do is really concentrate on how I'm speaking and what I'm

00:16saying.

00:19I feel like I'm holding my mouth different.

00:23It's just really strange for me at the moment.

00:26And I know a lot of you watching this will say, I don't know what your problem is, it's

00:30just an accent.

00:31It's so much more than just an accent, and trying to get people to understand that is

00:37really difficult.

00:39I mean, I don't know how to even begin.

00:43I spent my whole life with a voice.

00:47That voice changed.

00:49I then spent 13 months with a Welsh accent, and I accepted that, and I had to adapt to

00:57that, and now it's gone again.

01:03I don't know what my next thing is.

01:06I don't know whether my voice...

01:09I just want to be...

01:11I just want to have a voice that stays that voice so that it isn't hurting my brain.

01:18It's just hurting my head because I don't know whether I'm coming or going, and it's

01:24actually really difficult to speak in different accents, and unless you've had it, I can't

01:30explain it to you.

01:32So now I've just got to go through the motions, I guess, wait and see what happens.

01:38Is the English going to stay?

01:39Is the Welsh going to come back?

01:40Am I going to speak with a different accent?

01:43Who knows?

01:46Nobody can give me any answers regarding the accent change, so it really is a case of wait

01:55and see.
