How similar is the accent of North Lincolnshire or Scunthorpe to that of Yorkshire?

As North Lincolnshire was once part of Yorkshire you could say it is identical. However within Yorkshire there are many different accents, even between the four towns of South Yorkshire, Doncaster, Barnsley, Sheffield and Rotherham the accents are distinctive. North Lincolnshire has never been part of Yorkshire! Historically it was part of the Lindsey district of Lincolnshire - even the Isle of Axholme, which is to the west of the river Trent. As to their accent I would say it is distinctly different to the Yorkshire accentof say Doncaster, though like many local accents it is becoming increasingly difficuly to hear a true local accent.

In SyFy's Alice what accent does Hatter have?

Andrew Lee-Potts, who plays Hatter in Alice, is from Bradford, Yorkshire, England, and his accent is a peculiar combination of Yorkshire, RP and Mockney. Yorkshire is in the north of England and the people there use a short 'a' like North Americans, so when saying the word 'laugh' they say 'laff' rather than 'laahf', as would be said in the south of England. RP is an abbreviation which stands for 'received pronunciation' which is the 'standard' English accent, and uses the long 'a' as in 'laahf'. It is basically a southern accent, but has no specific regional connection and is generally used by the middle classes across the whole of England. 'Mockney' is a word used to describe a fake cockney accent which has become fashionable in the last ten years or so. It is based on the working class cockney accent of east London and tends to be used by middle class people who are trying to appear to have more street credibility.
