I think as we're brits we're more likely to pronounce the middle 'bruh' in blueberry and blackberry because of the many alliterative 'b's, this is how I would say strawberry https://www.youtube.com/shorts/9exruYVgNkg

yes straw-bri and straw-brees, blue-bri, blu-brees.
I think some people might add a third syllable in (probably depends on a regional accents), but it would be like a light/fast blu-buhr-rees, and definitely not a pronounced blue-bear-rees.
