Bedminster, the original part of Bristol, was set up as a hospital for People on a pilgrimage to near by Glastonbury, and if you go to Bristol in the summer you will see things haven't changed much. As the capital of the south west of Britain, home of stone circles and surfers, Bristol is a laid back place.
Bristol is home of the graffiti artist Banksy and experimental artist Damien Hurst, of the Harry Potter author and comedians Bill Bailey and Justin Lee collins. The drama department of Bristol university introduced the stars of Little Britain and it was in homage to this that Vikki Pollard has a Bristol accent. Bristolians are very proud of their vernacular and hence a series of tee shirts have been spourned with sayings such as "Gert Lush" and "Ow bist me babber", other graduates from Bristol Uni include Simon Pegg and the film "Hot Fuzz" filmed in near by Wells gives good examples of local dialect.
