Hi Marc,
Yes, I think most people in the UK would pronounce it as "Bruff". I do joust about remember "Countdown with Ayshea", and I am almost certain that she pronounced it as such...
That's the illogical thing about English pronunciation...
Brough is "Bruff", Rough is "ruff", tough is "tuff"
but..
Cough, is "Coff", etc...
...you say, "Tomaytoe", we say, "Tomartoe"...
Rgds, Griff
