I really like Simon Peggy and have loved him in everything he has done from Spaced onwards, but I have got to say,....WTF is going on with that accent? It is the worst Scottish accent I have ever heard and he kept lapsing back into English. I thought they would have paid for him to have a coach.

Well am from Glasgow and it's based on a mixture of his Scottish wife and James doonan who was infact Canadian and lived in northern Ireland when he was young and put on a Scottish accent , I think it's pretty decent it's a slowed down Glaswegian
