Script For Voiceover

Liverpool, home of the scousers. Through thick and thin scouse humour has shone through regardless to the struggles that liverpuddlians have faced!  From the top of the liver bird to the bottom of the Mersey we will show you what makes a liverpudlian a scouser. 
There are many labels the Scouse community have been given over the years.  Loud mouths, violent thieves and scum to name a few and have often been associated with over the top curly hair, dodgy moustaches and out of date tracksuits. But what do the Scousers of this world think when it comes to judging themselves?
The scouse accent is infamous around the globe and can be subject to controversy, but where did it come from?
Scousers are also well known for their homely dish, scouse, a common addition on any Liverpool pubs menu so we took to the street of Liverpool to see what scousers think of their home dish.

Script For Radio Trailer

What do you call a scouser in a suit?
A successful business man from the North West.
Over the years scousers have been portrayed as thieves, curly haired chavs and Liverpool is seen as somewhere that police sirens are heard just as often as the Beatles.

Known for their sense of humour,
“Born this way, natural comedians” old women
