What does this mean (in a Newcastle accent): "They make a cuuny noise like. Ferns [phones] make a cunny nose."?
"They make a cuuny noise like. Ferns [phones] make a cunny nose." -- Phil Jupitus, speaking in a Newcastle accent (QI - Stephen is Defeated by a Newcastle Accent)
Misspellings: noise, not nose
cunny(?), not cuuny -- but I don't know what the word is supposed to be anyway

Something described by a Geordie as "canny" (so there's what the word is!) is good, clever... it's a compliment.
When you have relatives from that part of the world, as I do, you get to understand the dialect! Another thing Phil got right there is adding "like" to the end of sentences for no particular reason.
