Try something like Ken Loach's 'The Navigators'. He takes great pride in 
getting the regional accents correct so most of it is Yorkies speaking 
whatever the hell they speak.

Surprisingly I don't have a problem with Australian shows like 'Mystery 
Road' and its spinoffs. One exception was a character who I thought was 
called 'Molly' but it turned out to be 'Marley' with the 'r' being pretty 
much swallowed.
