I've never played Scots or got the chance to do my Scottish accent. I'm always trying it out in auditions, but they always say no. I'd love to act in a Scottish accent for once.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I would love to play a British character one day. My accent wavers between Scottish and Irish very easily, though.
I love the Scottish accent; it is very sexy.
My accent is... sort of an Edinburgh sort of soft southwest Scottish accent. It could almost be English.
Apparently when I went to school, I had a Glasgow accent.
It's not like there's no work in Scotland, but speak to any actor, and they'll tell you it's limited. So you have to go to London or Manchester to broaden your horizons.
People say I've 'retained' my Cockney accent. I can do any accent, but I wanted other working-class boys to know that they could become actors.
As a Scot, representing a Scottish constituency for almost the past 25 years, I do not harbour an overweening ambition to pronounce on each and every matter exclusively English.
I'm as Scottish as they come.
Those English and Scottish know how to do accents.
I'm not against accents - my husband's from Lancashire and has a rural Lancs accent. We've just got back from Scotland yesterday, and I love that Highland burr.
