This is from a famous UK drama set in London.

YouTube - Bradley dumps Stacey part 4 - EastEnders - BBC

Everyone in it speaks with some kind of London accent. The people in this video also have some cockney traits.

If you listen carefully you can hear:
The man changes 'you' to 'ya'
She softens the 'th' in 'there'
He drops the 'g' on 'anything'
the man drop his 'h' in 'cheap horrible tie'.
she uses 'ain't'
He makes 'down' sound more like 'dahn'
She drops the 'h' on 'heard'
He makes the 'th' in 'nothing' more like f's -> 'nuffing'
