Large industrial town in the middle of England, about half
an hour's drive from Birmingham. Widely regarded as a bit of a shithole, though it actually has a rich & noble history. You can blame
Merry Hill for the shitness, or 'Merry Hell' as it is known locally.
Call someone from Dudley a
Brummie, and you likely won't live to tell the tale.
A
southerner: Are you a
Brummie?
Dudley native: No, I'm from Dudley.
A southerner: Oh, from Dudlayyy!
Dudley native: ...we don't even
talk like that?
