Nope, but you have got the right Scottish town

Thank you.That'll be the one! Amused -> Giggle, candle/Scottish town -> Wick

Extinct accents from across the pond are kept in a long box.
Good luck.

Nowhere near Bexhill, I'm afraid.

Closer! But not there, sorry.

We seem to have encountered an impasse.
The answer is quite obvious, it just requires a bit of thinking (and speaking!)
Nevertheless, I shall offer another clue:
This station is within a 30 minute journey radius of Glasgow.
I hope this helps!

Could it be Bishopbriggs?

It could be! But it isn't this time, I'm afraid.
Think about what a 'long box' could be, in the context of the clue.

Is it Carfin? (Coffin in an "extinct accent?" = long box)

It is indeed! Well done!
A deceased (extinct) human is kept in a coffin (long box).
With "across the pond" being a term for the United States, think of 'coffin' being said in an American accent. It'd sound similar to Carfin, so that's the correct answer!

That was a bit of a puzzler, and I confess that I had to look at a map for the answer. Anyhow...It is indeed! Well done!

It's neither Christchurch, nor Ashchurch I'm afraid.

Peckham Rye?
Indeed so, two minutes must be some kind of record!
Chicken’s ‘peck’ their food, + ham + rye, along with the Del Boy reference makes up the full clue.

Here's the next one:
Oh no! I splattered French barbecue sauce all over the carpet, and I forgot to clean it!
Good luck.
