Accents

I think I remember the crew, in the special features, saying something about Yorkshire and Northern accents, and it sounds like most of them aren't London accents. But can anyone help me place some of them? I know a lot of different English accents, but being in the US, TV is my only window to actually hear them.

Nigel and Gary the slugs: West Country, or Norfolk? I understand they're similar...

The old Nag: Cumbrian?

Captain Cuddlepuss and Trixie: Yorkshire?

The Snail from the birds episode: ????

I'll probably think of more later. Any help on this would be appreciated.

Nigel and Gary - West Country (Sounds like Somerset but could be Dorset)

Cuddlepuss and Trixie - Lancashire

Oh, and, despite what one reviwer said, Megan and Gladys the gulls are Welsh, NOT Irish.
