Unfortunately, locally does not mean from Accy as per the two actresses I mentioned earlier. We, at Ossy Players, recently did a play set in Manchester, and no-one made the effort to produce a Mancester accent ('cept me of course ...  ). 'Tis world's apart.
This thread seems to have digressed .. I know, my fault ... apologies West Ender .. LOL.

LOL yes, apologies Westender.
How did we go from Rab C Nesbitt to Yorkshire accents on Corrie?

Katex, I haven't googled, but I will if you want.

Those were just the ones who came to mind. I think the accents of the three I mentioned are very strong. I don't think they try to cover it up.
Anyway, like you say, we have digressed.
Shall we get back to the smelly one in the vest then?
