As I'm sure @SWP's back will confirm it's pronounced Katter. That's how the locals pronounced it when I visited the country.I actually have no idea how you pronounce it. Everyone on t.v uses "catarrh" and the people I have met from the U.K use "cutter".
Mike Wedderburn on SSN is the only one in the media I've noticed who pronounces it correctly.

Strange if she presumably had a northern accent because that would be just wrong. If spoken in a southern accent it would be about right.I met a woman from Burnley when I was in the Dominican Republic. She pronounced it cutter.

Yeah that’s the correct way but I find it very hard not to say Kat-ar. When I say Katter/Katta, no one has a clue where I’m talking about.As I'm sure @SWP's back will confirm it's pronounced Katter. That's how the locals pronounced it when I visited the country.

Yep, she had a northern accent. Probably just trying to be fancy.Strange if she presumably had a northern accent because that would be just wrong. If spoken in a southern accent it would be about right.

I do like a lot of RS songs but I don’t love them as a band because of that daft singing accent. Their best songs are so good his accent ‘don’t mayyyyke no diffreyyynce’.
Cockneys reckon he’s got a Mockney accent n’all.
Plus one bloke wrote in a book that he was with Jagger in a room with a southern American fella, a Jamaican and a Mancunian and he was listening to how Jagger was changing his accent with each of them as he was speaking to them.
Maybe he’s some sort of obsessive/subconscious impressionist?

It's actually pronounced "Kway-tar". I heard Ivy Tilsly say it when "our Brian" went to work there about 40 years ago on Corrie.I actually have no idea how you pronounce it. Everyone on t.v uses "catarrh" and the people I have met from the U.K use "cutter".

I've had a strange relationship with the RS. I like them in the 60s, although I always like the Pretty Things more, as a 5-piece R&B band, I thought Phil May was a better front man than Mick.I do like a lot of RS songs but I don’t love them as a band because of that daft singing accent.

I think the way they treated Brian Jones put me off them. They (Mick & Keith) kicked him out of his band, he started the band. I know he was a drunken idiot at that point, but he needed help with his alcoholism.
According to Bill's book "Stone Alone" they were freezing him out before this. Kinda tantamount to bullying.
What they did was THE worst thing for him and his mental state imo.
Then they didn't show up to his funeral. Only Bill Wyman and Charlie were there.
I think that revealed a bit about what kind of people Mick & Keith are. Anyway it kinda stopped me loving them and their music.
Silly for a fan to get involved like that I know, but there it is..
Thank fuck its friyayCheer up, it’s Friyay.

Old people taking ages in the meat and fruit sections in a supermarket. Just look at the date and put it in the basket no need to be touching it up.

People referring to rugby union simply as ‘rugby’ as if they are above even acknowledging rugby league is a thing. ITV have adverts on all the time at the moment for some game where they do it and it is increasingly annoying me each time I see it.
