apparently people from Northern England are hard to understand

I can see where you are coming from, as the Americans can find it a bit difficult to understand the New Zealand accent, however the Canadians have no problem whatsoever.

Oh dear. You Americans don't understand real English. Tsk tsk!

What makes it "real English"? The language you were speaking when we broke off was just as foreign to modern British English as American is.

You didn't miss much, they weren't exactly reciting Shakespeare.

It's not that difficult. As an American, I generally understand about 90-95% of it. The rest is generally a mixture of unfamiliar slang, strong accents and fast-talking. I've known British (mostly English) people who have the same problem, especially with the less "flat" varieties of American English. It's not worth everybody getting so worked up over.

UMMMMMMMMMMM..
Watching DVD NOW, and the sub-titles work just fine. On your DVD remote, there is a button that is marked "subtitles". Try using it.
And yes, British accents are hard to understand.
Son, you can't polish a turd

The whiny American accent can also be difficult for Brits to understand. I usually have to watch US movies on TV and DVD with the subtitles on to follow the dialogue.

Yup, the whiny nasal high pitched American is a common trope in British theater and TV.

I had no trouble following the dialogue at all.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.
