But Noddy is from Wolverhampton, not Birmingham. Try calling a Mancunian a Scouser or a Tyke!

Noddy Holder is from the Black Country rather than Birmingham, which is to the SE.

While we are being geographically accurate, the band in 2d is actually from Texas, and most Texans don't consider themselves part of the south.

Went back and sure enough saw the theme. I did see the movie a long (long) time ago, but remember little. Thanks to all who pointed it out.

Really, darla? If you go south of Texas, surely you would be swimming! Do they separate themselves from Louisiana etc.?

Chrise and Smudgekent.

Exactly that. Slade would definitely define themselves as Black Country not Brummie. The clue works but actually the accents have a lot of differences.
