King James of Scotland - Spud?
I am not British so please forgive me for any ignorant questions:
1) Did Ewen Bremner (Spud from Trainspotting) exaggerate his Scottish accent and did James speak with a heavy Scottish accent? The reason I ask is that James did grow up in an English-paid court and his mother was half-French, so what kind of accent would a Scottish prince most likely take up?
I was so surprised to see Spud playing a king, lol.
2) What was that whole conversation James had with Cecil about? Something about bitches and having boys in court. Were they implying James had homosexual tendencies? Please explain.
