Subject: A question for those in the UK...

I have been cast in a local production of "Noises Off" and being that
everyone in the show is American and supposed to be British, we're
trying to nail down the correct pronunciations of various towns
referenced in the script. The language CDs for accents can do wonders
but they don't cover things like:

Ashford-under-Lyne: is the last bit pronounced Line or Linn?
Weston-Super-Mare: Mehr or Mahr or Mahr-ay?
Basingstoke: Bay-sing-stoke? or Bah-sing-stoke?

and if you were going to summer in Marbella on the Costa del Sol in
Southern Spain, would you tell your friends you were summering in
Mar-BELL-a (as it is spelled) or Mar-BAYA (as it would be pronounced
in Spanish)?

Oddly enough, Aberystwyth hasn't caused much of a problem.

Thanks very much!
