7/11 today with still saying the same things as the last time, it is pronounced differently if you live there, I know because I've lived in some of these places or know(n) them very well.

7/11 again , such discrepancies with these - does depend on if you live there, know the place, etc.

9/11 today, almost there - pronunciation definitely depends on if you live there or not.

8/11 today, getting there and still say pronunciation depends if you live there or not.

7/11 today, slight improvement but same comments remain from my last go - depends if you have lived there or not really, to determine correct way to pronounce names.

6/11 tonight but we pronounce these very differently in UK, especially when you live near to some of these places. Please don't claim these as correct, for most of them.

8/11 but Hunstanton is definitely pronounced HUN _ STAN_ TUN - know it very well and married to a Norfolkman, who pronounces it correctly.

Only people who don't understand Welsh pronunciation would insult the Welsh by pronouncing the 'll' in Llandudno as 'Clan...'. It starts as 'Thl...'
