British Accents: the accents on this show are amazing and very entertaining. I love British accents and British television such as UK Skins - great show - so this obviously drew me to the Geordie Shore.
New Slang: Watching this show will make me nostalgic of my British slang phase circa 2009 with my friend KK. I will most likely start using British slang phrases from the past and new ones that will arise from this show. Here are some examples of British slang used on the show:
Spice boys – pretty boys
Tash on – snogging
Swilling – throwing a drink over someone
Soound as a poound – good/approved
It’ll be proper mint! – it will be great
ahfancyhor or ahfancyhim – I fancy her / him
Purely belter – really good
Alreet marra? - you alright mate?
Ah wes palatick – I enjoyed myself
Hoy–ye – taxi
Tash on – snogging
Swilling – throwing a drink over someone
Soound as a poound – good/approved
It’ll be proper mint! – it will be great
ahfancyhor or ahfancyhim – I fancy her / him
Purely belter – really good
Alreet marra? - you alright mate?
Ah wes palatick – I enjoyed myself
Hoy–ye – taxi
British Snookie: There is a British version of Snookie on the Geordie Shore. Her name is Sophie and she got drunk and puked the first night in the house and passed out at 9.
Uncensored: British tv is much more liberal than in the US. 'F' bombs are dropped and tops are taken off and people don't get into an uproar over it.
Drunkenness: Like The Jersey Shore, the Geordie cast gets drunk off their asses and does dumb stuff and get into fights. They are as entertaining as Jersey in my opinion as far as I've seen so far.
