Not to mention that despite the impact of TV and radio, UK accents are wildly variant and it's pretty much a guarantee that there'll be corners that don't make distinctions between at least two of these words.
There's no such thing as "regular English" in the UK; the Thames Estuary accent is prescriptivism, not regularity.
