    Regarding "Not Proven", it used to be in Scots law that the two verdicts were "Proven" and "Not Proven", until a lawyer managed to convince a jury to return a verdict of "Not Guilty" on a case where the jury didn't want to punish a person for a charge that the prosecution had definitely proven. For a long time thereafter "Not Guilty" was just the way Scots juries practiced jury nullification, until it became the norm and Not Proven then changed to being "we know you did it but can't prove it".

    Being from Aberdeenshire myself, I find this incredibly entertaining, however Turriff isn't exactly the most renowned Doric speaking area - there are other areas which have a much more country-oriented way of life (and dialogue). Great video though! Sad to see Doric becoming less and less popular over the years, it's a very interesting element of North-East culture. We need a revival!
    EDIT: 'coo' isnt necessarily a Highland Cow, just a cow in general. ;)

A shitty generic song, a lot of vlog youtubers (I guess .. don't know most of them). There was a single good scene (the train with the fidget) and that's pretty sad for a 6 minute video.
