Anything north or east of Glasgow is a Teuchter anything west or south of Glasgow is a weegie from my experience even though every toon has its own accent 😂
“Set phasers to Malky”. To get Malkied in this sketch is to get stunned by being hit, head butted or battered. As a Taysider, it’s fckn hilarious when you understand every word.
@@loxism72 I know, your comment wasn’t for me, and I never knew where it came from, but we were never that specific, a “doin’” was what we thought of it as. “He was malkied outside the pub last night” 😂
@@mral8145Aye malkied, a batterin, 34 here, that's how I've always used it. So in this sketch I always took it to me to just rip the living pish out of them
The two main actors in this are Ford Kiernan and Greg Hemphill, who wrote and starred in the hit Scottish comedy show, Still Game. You know, the one you didn’t like? 🤣
I found this transcript with translation when i googled it. Scene 1 "Right Ensign, gies warp factor ten and we'll open this big bastard up and see if it is shit off a shovel right enough" "Right ensign, set speed warp factor ten and let's see if this ship is as fast as they say it is" "Nae danger, get yer belts on" "Aye aye, fasten your seatbelts" "You won't catch us wearing belts like a bunch of big poofters." "Wearing seatbelts is unmanly" "Gonnae let us go to the replicator?Ah'm starving" "May I go get some food from the replicator as I am quite hungry?" "Aye, as long as you bring us back a mug of royal game soup and a couple o' ciders" "You may, but please bring me back some refreshment also." "Captain, there a right big whore ae a spaceship comin' towards us, an ye want tae see the bastardin' size o' the thing, it's a good yin or twa size bigger than oors ken!" "Captain, there is a large spaceship coming towards us, almost twice as big as us" Scene 2 "Ah telt ye before, any mair o' yer pish an I'll stick this right in yer crack!"

"Set phasers on maximum" "It's like hee-haw wuv ever seen afore captain, ken?" "It's life Captain, but not as we know it." "He's deed captain, stone deed. Nae pulse or nothing.

"You realize you are desperate for sex?" "Ye've hee-haw chance o getting' yer hole, yer an android, ye've kak all nob!"

I spent a year in Scotland ,my mother was ill,i was sent to with an aunt . Went to primary school and all these years later i'm still in touch with the friends i made 😊
I've not seen this in years, I'm crying xD. It was a Scottish sketch show, I'm sure people from England would've had a hard time understanding it never mind Americans, so don't worry.
I was just going to say he needs to watch him because we loved Rab c and we're Cornish and laughed continuously through each episode omg can't believe he's never watched it bloody Muppet 😂😂😂😂
Me and another guy from our department booked into a Glasgow hotel as we were temporarily working at one of our Scottish depots. We asked the receptionist for a 6.30 am early morning call. She said "You both have sex?" (Thinks : I'm going to like this hotel.) What she actually said was "Are you both half six."
Don't beat yourself up. I'm from Sunderland, 50 miles from Scotland, and I struggled, but, then again, the Scottish will say that's because I'm from Sunderland. Keep the videos coming mate.
I had to go to sunderland for an Exhibition get-in. I had to pretend I was slightly deaf so the local contractors would talk slowly. I didn't want to offend!

I'm a Taysider based in Dundee, Scotland, around 10 miles away from Carnoustie. The language used and accents are pretty accurate although there's a few Glasgow phrases in there e.g. set phasers to "Malkie". Malkie being to cause someone physical harm. If you need any other translations, let me know. Oh, clacker bag (noun) scrotum. Clackers were a fad back in the 70's for schoolchildren. They were two plastic balls joined by a cord about 18 inches long. The game was to hold the middle of the cord and let the balls collide harder and harder until they were colliding at the bottom and at the top of their movement.
@@SMacCuUladh It came to mean that. Someone explained the root of it in an earlier comment thread. That's the thing about language, it's ever changing.
@@williampatterson3683 Malkie Razor, fraser. it is a razor, but i think its also used out of context, to say you are getting a beating. There were Teddy Boy gangs that used to use razors. My uncle used to dress up like that? he was always into weird stuff.
This was the first Chewin' The Fat sketch I watched. I laughed my head off even though I couldn't understand what they were saying. That end phrase in unison. "Ahh go on! Don't talk pish!"
"Set phasers tae malky". Malky is Scottish rhyming slang from Malky (Malcolm) Fraser* = razor, once the favoured weapon of the Scottish urban thug. It came to mean any kind of non-fatal attack, including a good (😳?) kicking, a headbutt (Glasgow kiss) or just a plain old slap in the coupon. * nobody knows who Malky Fraser was, but I bet nobody messed with him.
"Malky" (for the phasars) comes from nearly 100 years ago, when one Malcolm (Malky) Fraser was the leader of a razor gang which slashed their victims. Giving someone a "malky" meant doing them a serious injury. "Hee-haw" is a donkey noise, used to mean "zero" and is possibly rhyming slang for "fuck aw", how we Scots say "fuck all" or nothing. Not surprised you struggled, I sent a dvd of this many years ago to a French friend and English teacher who was extremely fluent in his second language. "It might as well be Hungarian" was the verdict. The Fife accent (east coast of Scotland) is tricky, even for other Scots.
@@Adi-Dassler The accent is the same throughout Tayside though. You have to go up to Forfar before it changes a bit but all along the East coast of Tayside, that is the accent you will hear.
They are meant to be Taysiders but they are actually west coasters (mainly Weegies) hence the accents being nearly right but some mange to pull it off better than others
The accent is supposed to be from Tayside in Scotland....my area as I'm from Dundee....the accents are a wee bit off as the Chewin the fat team are all from Glasgow......right funny though....Ken!
@CaledonianCloud The sketch is called Taysiders in Space and then refers to Carnoustie which is in Tayside, just up from Dundee....but the accents are all over the place....buts that's me just being pernickety.....funny sketch
"Nae danger" = no problem. Edit: If you want a good example of Chewin' the fat that's not too heavy with accents but is very, very funny, try the "invisible boss" sketch. Ya roaster, ye...
@@clothilde1623 I worked around Glasgow, and occasionally i went to an Edinburgh depot - the guy there used KEN a lot? Definite change in accent and verbiage . TuCHter, was the expression my uncle used. spelled Teuchter - Looks German? Dundee thick accents. I have my own weird words. someone might say where is the tv remote? I would say Ben the kitchen. I think it means BE IN the Kitchen. Its probably old scots. ben ? while you are in the kitchen.. get me an outsider toastie.
100% not Glaswegian 😂 Definitely more east coast. I grew up in Glasgow, moved to the Forth Valley area and then worked in Fife and I would say this essentially Fife/East Coast (not Edinburgh) to my ear. I don’t understand 70% of the sayings and the accent is not Glasgow-born! 🤣
@@Adi-Dassler Both of my parents were from Dundee, and my aunts, uncles and cousins have lived in Dundee all their lives, but I recognised absolutely none of that, except for ‘ken’ (ie know), and that’s cause I was born and brought up in Edinburgh, then East Lothian. If it’s not weegie then fair enough, but I’ve never heard an east-coaster who sounded remotely like that, including Fifers (I’ve worked with many) and Taysiders. I went to uni in Aberdeen and they speak ‘the Doric’ - a feckin nightmare to understand if you’re not local, but absolutely nothing like what’s spraffed in that sketch! So I’m still mystified as to which specific corner of the east coast they’re imitating. 🤷♀️
She is Karen Dunbar and is a legend. The accent she’s using is from Dundee, without a doubt the funniest accent, and always the hardest to understand. Enjoy.
As a Cockney who married a Scots lass ( caught with a net while she was running wild up in Jockistan land ), even after 20yrs of constant racist banter between me and my in laws, I defy anyone to keep up with them speaking " Jockonese " and understanding what is said when they are pissed.
I'm a Highlander and we tend to have milder accents than the others but I can follow this easily. Many years ago I was working in a office in the south of England, where a Welsh member of staff called on me to assist him in translating what his half-cut Ayrshire customer was saying. Everyone left happily, when we were done.
TOO FUNNY ... pure scottish breed . 😂 you would need to live in Glasgow/Scotland to understand it . But it made me laugh and don't normally laugh at them scetch shows . But this is well written and translated well . The Burniston one you're thinking about = do the elevator /Lift one A talking elevator doesn't under stand scottish accent and they are trying to get to floor 11
Despite living in Dundee I've never heard anyone use the word 'malky'. Chewing the fat is also the only place I've heard the word "Staunner' being used. Must be a Glasgow thing.
As I always understood it 'Malky' is a Weegie phrase but as the cast is full of weegies it is not surprising that the odd phrase creept in . Staunner was on QI as well. Doon McKitchin had no idea what it was.
I met the lady with the funny hair a number of years ago when she was filming her comedy sketch show in Clydebank they also do still game as well that’s funny 🤣
The woman with the red hair is Karen Dunbar and she is n amazing comedienne. Yes the language is hilarious - some of it still in use today ( ok maybe not the malkied word so much ). This was often used when a street gang member was assaulted by another gang member who would collapse and say ‘ A’VE BEEN MALKEED ! - in other words nearly killed. This episode still makes me laugh.
The accents are from Fife to Aberdeen- (along the East Coast of Scotland) Highlanders mainly. Although the actors are mainly from Glasgow, Karen Dunbar is from Fife. If you enjoyed this you will love their other show- 'Still Game'. The two leading men above play two Glasgow Pensioner friends. Their day to day lives and what they get up to- its really funny and easier to understand. P.S. To 'malky' someone is to slash them with a blade. 'Kak aw' is to have nothing (Mr Data had 'kak aw' between his legs).
I think that sketch was actually called “Taysiders In Space”, so it’s not just a joke about Scottish culture; it’s a joke about a particularly strong local accent within Scotland.
I worked on the phones in Customer Services for a Scottish company, and swear to God, I had calls like this 50 %, of the time and unfortunately, there are no subtitles on the phone.
I'm actually from Tayside, the accent they are doing is a hammed up version of the Dundee accent, part of Tayside. That's not their natural accent and they are totally taking the piss out of it. It's deliberately over the top, but fuckin hilarious.
If I remember right, the sketch was meant to have Scottish people laughing at the Tayside accent. So no wonder you don't understand stand it, most of Scotland didn't either.
I'm Scottish, born in a tenement (apartment block), raised in a Council House Scheme (a "Project") in the West of Scotland and even I had to slow it down to understand some of it! 😂😂😂
Going off the scottish theme. Have you watched 'Bottom' yet with Rik Mayall and Ade Edmundson? Very funny english slapstick rude snd crude. Prior to that 'The Young Ones'. Making their debut on Saturday Live as 'The Dangerous Brothers'. I'm sure you'll love them😂.
So pleased you've seen this. I commented on the cockney Star Trek that this was worth a look. I asked my Glaswegian friend to translate it for me and she couldn't either. So don't worry about not understanding it. 😂 I think it's a bit like the scene on one of the Airplane films where the black guy is asked to describe in his own words about what happened, and he starts talking jive. Impenetrable. 😂 👌
Greg Hemphill, the Captain, lived in Montreal, Canada for most of his childhood. Those accents were all over the place! No wonder you were struggling! 😂
If you are Scottish or are familiar with the Tayside accent then yes, you will get this and its very funny... its actually also funny watching someone with zero chance of understanding it without some form of translation, watching it baffled...
you should really see jack and victor in chewin the fat. one of my favourite skits is with the tazor and another with them reading. Both arguing that their book is better and the argument is them agreeing that John wayne was an Arsehole. Really funny a recommendation. Pretty sure youve tried or been advsed on still game but i wont waste my breath. stay awesome as always
That holodeck pub is the same one used for the Clansman in Still Game. This was filmed at the end of its run just as they began Still Game full time hence why the whole cast are together in this sketch. Albeit it many of them appeared in Chewin the Fat too.
I remember watching this back when it originally aired, I was buckled over 😂 Big Hoor of a ship coming and it’s a good one or twa sizes bigger than oors is my favourite line 😂😂
I’ve lived in Carnoustie for 20 years and can confirm that this is a very exaggerated version of our accents, still a hilarious sketch and show, you’d love Still Game and Burnistoun if you haven’t seen them yet
I went to a football match in Dundee years ago a pal of mine was playing in, arrived a little late so asked the old guy taking gate money the score he said "aye it's Yin-Yin" took me a few seconds to comprehend he said it's 1-1 😂
These guys also did regular sketches about air traffic controllers - for example, a plane would be at a crucial point during the flight and one of the controllers would put his hands over the eyes of the controller dealing with that plane. 😁
Looking forward to you doing Burnistoun, even if you dint react to every episode you should still watch it all, so many quality sketches, one of my favourites is the two men in their thirties in the pub convinced they can chat up the 20 year old girls
My favourite is the SatNav voiced by the guy's father " left LEFT L E F T ach yuv missed it- birly aboot", " is this a prison ship?" "Naw"" then why are ye right up that guys arse?"
Yin of twa (one or two) is used in west cost too. In Ayrshire anyway. But aye, is definitely West Coat taking the piss out of East Coast. And to be fair, us West Coasters do have trouble with the East Coast accent too 🤣 (see Limmy's show)
Loved this. The show was great, but wondering if you watched the older Scottish shows? I used to love watching Rab C Nesbitt, and prior to the bells for new year, I also loved watching Scotch & Wry. Not sure how many clips there are on YT, but you should check them out.
I live in between Glasgow and Edinburgh. If you need a translator. Happy to help👍one my favourites of all time ..reminded me of being home with the family .the sketch had less swaring though.Braw🖖
Grew up in Canada but have Scottish parents and would go back a lot when I was a kid to see the relatives so I understand every word of this lol. If you google Scottish words there are lists that will help you translate.
I'm from Glasgow, I spent a lot of my childhood in the Kingdom of Fife. At 72 my wife says when I'm haverin' in my sleep I speak with a Fife accent. See Rab C. goes tae visit his posh brother in London. The translations are hilarious.
Only an excuse is good as well, but you would need to do a deep dive into scottish football first, so you know who the characters are and what some of the actions portrayed means first. Jimmy Calderwood, Gordon Strachan, Steven Gerrard all have unique things they do, and they take the piss out of them all for it 😂 Also check out the scottish football podcasts and breakfast radio shows for some comedy gold moments. Hector Broklebank Real Radio is a classic 😂😂😂😂

TuCHter, was the expression my uncle used. spelled Teuchter - Looks German? Dundee thick accents. I have my own weird words. someone might say where is the tv remote? I would say Ben the kitchen. I think it means BE IN the Kitchen. Its probably old scots. ben ? while you are in the kitchen.. get me an outsider toastie.
100% not Glaswegian 😂 Definitely more east coast. I grew up in Glasgow, moved to the Forth Valley area and then worked in Fife and I would say this essentially Fife/East Coast (not Edinburgh) to my ear. I don’t understand 70% of the sayings and the accent is not Glasgow-born! 🤣
@@Adi-Dassler Both of my parents were from Dundee, and my aunts, uncles and cousins have lived in Dundee all their lives, but I recognised absolutely none of that, except for ‘ken’ (ie know), and that’s cause I was born and brought up in Edinburgh, then East Lothian.
If it’s not weegie then fair enough, but I’ve never heard an east-coaster who sounded remotely like that, including Fifers (I’ve worked with many) and Taysiders. I went to uni in Aberdeen and they speak ‘the Doric’ - a feckin nightmare to understand if you’re not local, but absolutely nothing like what’s spraffed in that sketch! So I’m still mystified as to which specific corner of the east coast they’re imitating. 🤷♀️
I would recommend the chewin' the fat "Swatch" or ice cream clip. Very funny, I think it'll crack you up!😅
I'm Scottish, from Glasgow roughly and I struggle sometimes to understand the dialect / accent from that part of Scotland.
She is Karen Dunbar and is a legend. The accent she’s using is from Dundee, without a doubt the funniest accent, and always the hardest to understand. Enjoy.
As a Cockney who married a Scots lass ( caught with a net while she was running wild up in Jockistan land ), even after 20yrs of constant racist banter between me and my in laws, I defy anyone to keep up with them speaking " Jockonese " and understanding what is said when they are pissed.
Barmpot!
I'm a Highlander and we tend to have milder accents than the others but I can follow this easily. Many years ago I was working in a office in the south of England, where a Welsh member of staff called on me to assist him in translating what his half-cut Ayrshire customer was saying. Everyone left happily, when we were done.
Very funny thanks
I’m honestly not sure if this comment is meant to be funny or not. 😕
😂😂😂😂
TOO FUNNY ... pure scottish breed . 😂 you would need to live in Glasgow/Scotland to understand it .
But it made me laugh and don't normally laugh at them scetch shows . But this is well written and translated well .
The Burniston one you're thinking about = do the elevator /Lift one
A talking elevator doesn't under stand scottish accent and they are trying to get to floor 11
Despite living in Dundee I've never heard anyone use the word 'malky'.
Chewing the fat is also the only place I've heard the word "Staunner' being used. Must be a Glasgow thing.
Stauner 😅- haven’t heard that in 30 years ! I’m from West Lothian and we called Staunner a Dezo! Cos it rhymes with Des O Conner 😝
👍🏴
Stauner definitely a Glasgow thing.
@@rasputinswalloper475 aye 🤣
“ Check this Diddy wi a Des O’Connor “ 😝
👍🏴
Stauner 😂😂😂😂😂 not heard that for 30 years
As I always understood it 'Malky' is a Weegie phrase but as the cast is full of weegies it is not surprising that the odd phrase creept in .
Staunner was on QI as well. Doon McKitchin had no idea what it was.
"The 2 Ronnies" also did a very funny spoof on Star Trek --- check it out!
I'm Scottish and I'm having a hard time understanding it 🤣

Chewing the fat is a rabbit hole you must react to honestly you will love it
I met the lady with the funny hair a number of years ago when she was filming her comedy sketch show in Clydebank they also do still game as well that’s funny 🤣
She said to the android " You have nay chance of getting a hole; you have nay got a knob"..😂
Not "A" hole 'YER hole'.
She didnae actually. She said…. You’ve nae chance o’ gettin’ yer hole. You’ve kack aw knob!
The woman with the red hair is Karen Dunbar and she is n amazing comedienne. Yes the language is hilarious - some of it still in use today ( ok maybe not the malkied word so much ). This was often used when a street gang member was assaulted by another gang member who would collapse and say ‘ A’VE BEEN MALKEED ! - in other words nearly killed. This episode still makes me laugh.
They missed a trick here. They needed a chief engineer with an upperclass English accent.
The accents are from Fife to Aberdeen- (along the East Coast of Scotland) Highlanders mainly. Although the actors are mainly from Glasgow, Karen Dunbar is from Fife.
If you enjoyed this you will love their other show- 'Still Game'. The two leading men above play two Glasgow Pensioner friends. Their day to day lives and what they get up to- its really funny and easier to understand.
P.S. To 'malky' someone is to slash them with a blade. 'Kak aw' is to have nothing (Mr Data had 'kak aw' between his legs).
Tasha Yar must've been very disappointed.
I think that sketch was actually called “Taysiders In Space”, so it’s not just a joke about Scottish culture; it’s a joke about a particularly strong local accent within Scotland.
yeah, it was east coast accents kinda turned up to 11!
I worked on the phones in Customer Services for a Scottish company, and swear to God, I had calls like this 50 %, of the time and unfortunately, there are no subtitles on the phone.
I'm actually from Tayside, the accent they are doing is a hammed up version of the Dundee accent, part of Tayside. That's not their natural accent and they are totally taking the piss out of it. It's deliberately over the top, but fuckin hilarious.
If I remember right, the sketch was meant to have Scottish people laughing at the Tayside accent. So no wonder you don't understand stand it, most of Scotland didn't either.
I'm Scottish, born in a tenement (apartment block), raised in a Council House Scheme (a "Project") in the West of Scotland and even I had to slow it down to understand some of it! 😂😂😂
“Two outsiders” is Scottish code, and cannae divulge or my haggis will self destruct.
And as a fifer dundonians are a different breed
Dundee accent and slang . Different from Edinburgh which in turn is different from Glasgow
I've seen that sketch before but it's still funny! It looks like they had a blast making this and I'd love to see their edits.
Tip, if you want to understand a Scotsman, you have to speak to them over a phone. Some how they become easier to understand over the phone.
Going off the scottish theme. Have you watched 'Bottom' yet with Rik Mayall and Ade Edmundson? Very funny english slapstick rude snd crude. Prior to that 'The Young Ones'. Making their debut on Saturday Live as 'The Dangerous Brothers'. I'm sure you'll love them😂.
There was a very funny sketch from a Scottish comedy show regarding a couple of Scotsmen in a lift (elevator), that couldn't understand their accents.
The lighthouse keepers. "Gaunnae no dae that?" "How?" "Jist gaunnae no."
Its how I tell off my grandweans for misbehaving without being 'bad grandpa'.
The guys from Burnistoun were among the writers on Chewin' The Fat as well.
So pleased you've seen this. I commented on the cockney Star Trek that this was worth a look. I asked my Glaswegian friend to translate it for me and she couldn't either. So don't worry about not understanding it. 😂
I think it's a bit like the scene on one of the Airplane films where the black guy is asked to describe in his own words about what happened, and he starts talking jive. Impenetrable. 😂 👌
I recognise at least three of the actors from Still Game in that sketch 😂😂
3? FFS, there's Tam, Winston, jack and victor all there
Chewing the fat, Burnistoun, Naked Video (Rab c Nesbit started on, if I remember right) & Absolutely were my favourite Scottish sketch comedy shows.
We Scot's are the most aggressively nice place in the world... Or in the Galaxy in this case. 🤘🏴
Greg Hemphill, the Captain, lived in Montreal, Canada for most of his childhood. Those accents were all over the place! No wonder you were struggling! 😂
I sense a new voyage for King Boomer! Great sketch from a great show. BBC Scotlan for a lot of years made the best comedy from BBC land.
If you are Scottish or are familiar with the Tayside accent then yes, you will get this and its very funny... its actually also funny watching someone with zero chance of understanding it without some form of translation, watching it baffled...
I am from Glasgow and some of that dialogue is hard for me to pick up LOL
@@Adi-Dasslerthank you for "explaining" the country I live in as if I didnt know that.
you should really see jack and victor in chewin the fat. one of my favourite skits is with the tazor and another with them reading. Both arguing that their book is better and the argument is them agreeing that John wayne was an Arsehole. Really funny a recommendation.
Pretty sure youve tried or been advsed on still game but i wont waste my breath. stay awesome as always
That holodeck pub is the same one used for the Clansman in Still Game. This was filmed at the end of its run just as they began Still Game full time hence why the whole cast are together in this sketch. Albeit it many of them appeared in Chewin the Fat too.
Glad you liked it, greetings to you in the USA, from Scotland
Rab C Nesbitt is a great Scottish show to watch too
I remember watching this back when it originally aired, I was buckled over 😂
Big Hoor of a ship coming and it’s a good one or twa sizes bigger than oors is my favourite line 😂😂
I’ve lived in Carnoustie for 20 years and can confirm that this is a very exaggerated version of our accents, still a hilarious sketch and show, you’d love Still Game and Burnistoun if you haven’t seen them yet
Still cracks me up years later. Brilliant 😂
I was half expecting an American engineer called Yankee.
Have you seen "Rab C Nesbitt" yet? for Scottish humour, it is a must-see.
I went to a football match in Dundee years ago a pal of mine was playing in, arrived a little late so asked the old guy taking gate money the score he said "aye it's Yin-Yin" took me a few seconds to comprehend he said it's 1-1 😂
I’m Scottish from Glasgow & some a these accents are amazing 😂 this makes me laugh every time I watch it
There was on on Bavarian TV with Beer kegs as fuel tanks and the Crew in Lederhosen and pinafores
My favourite CTF sketch, being an east coaster close to Carnoustie
These guys also did regular sketches about air traffic controllers - for example, a plane would be at a crucial point during the flight and one of the controllers would put his hands over the eyes of the controller dealing with that plane. 😁
Looking forward to you doing Burnistoun, even if you dint react to every episode you should still watch it all, so many quality sketches, one of my favourites is the two men in their thirties in the pub convinced they can chat up the 20 year old girls
My favourite is the SatNav voiced by the guy's father " left LEFT L E F T ach yuv missed it- birly aboot", " is this a prison ship?" "Naw"" then why are ye right up that guys arse?"
Most of the still game cast in that scene, pure class
Yin of twa (one or two) is used in west cost too. In Ayrshire anyway. But aye, is definitely West Coat taking the piss out of East Coast. And to be fair, us West Coasters do have trouble with the East Coast accent too 🤣 (see Limmy's show)
Loved this. The show was great, but wondering if you watched the older Scottish shows? I used to love watching Rab C Nesbitt, and prior to the bells for new year, I also loved watching Scotch & Wry. Not sure how many clips there are on YT, but you should check them out.
I live outside Paisley and I understood every word. Absolutely hilarious
'Set phaser tae malky'. = set phaser to 'assault with intent to commit grievous bodily harm'. 😂
I live in between Glasgow and Edinburgh. If you need a translator. Happy to help👍one my favourites of all time ..reminded me of being home with the family .the sketch had less swaring though.Braw🖖
Grew up in Canada but have Scottish parents and would go back a lot when I was a kid to see the relatives so I understand every word of this lol.
If you google Scottish words there are lists that will help you translate.
I’m sitting here in Glasgow laughing my head off, Scottish obviously 😂
He said Holodeck not holiday.
I couldn't understand much of anything, but to me it was like a cast full of Scotty's, and that was hilarious.
the only thing i understood was " stop looking at my arse you pervert " maybe cause i've heard it so many times myself . lol
I'm from Glasgow, I spent a lot of my childhood in the Kingdom of Fife. At 72 my wife says when I'm haverin' in my sleep I speak with a Fife accent. See Rab C. goes tae visit his posh brother in London. The translations are hilarious.
Only an excuse is good as well, but you would need to do a deep dive into scottish football first, so you know who the characters are and what some of the actions portrayed means first. Jimmy Calderwood, Gordon Strachan, Steven Gerrard all have unique things they do, and they take the piss out of them all for it 😂
Also check out the scottish football podcasts and breakfast radio shows for some comedy gold moments.
Hector Broklebank Real Radio is a classic 😂😂😂😂
Im from Scotland 😂 enjoy ,loved Chewing The Fat , you should also watch Still Game 😂
Continuing on the scottish theme:Rab C Nesbitt with Gregor Fisher. You'll probably need a translater. But very funny nonetheless 😂
I can understand this as I grew up in Aberdeenshire... but yeah it's a struggle!
