The ironies here that he's voiced by an American actor, and that every Scot I know say they grind their teeth at his 'accent', which is the worst 'Scottish' accent since Shrek.

Re: Can they say that?

Im totally with you Bluewolf. Im actually scottish myself but due to my dad being in the forces never got the accent.

But your right, there are people that can't do a scottish accent to save their lives, but then there are people who can do a scottish accent really really well...but they still can't speak scottish.

Its something about it. The way they choose their words that when they go together sound scottish.

Groundskeeper Willy just said and I quote

'I've reviewed all of the new tractors...they're all ****e.'

At 6.25pm! That can't be right can it?

EDIT Even the org swear filter has not allowed it!

If he was looking at Fords & Massey Fergusons, then I think it is fair enough, if, however he was looking at John Deeres then it is definitely wrong

I think there's a common misconception that a Scottish accent is easy to do, just stick in a few "hoots mon"s and the occasional "jings" and you're an expert. Not true though, there's a lot more to it than crass streotyping.

But the single longest running really bad Scottish accent has to be Mr Scott from the original Star Trek. Even makes me cringe. Even more than real Scottish accents! :smt019

only joking BW! I love Scottish really!

Well David Cameron did say T*** during a radio interview last week, thought it isn't a swear word it seems, but still funny.
