I find it mildly irritating that English producers/scriptwriters/directors or whatever seem to think that all Scots speak with a Glasgow accent. It would be pleasant if sometimes they used accents from other parts of Scotland, just as they mange to use accents from different parts of England.

Susan Rae. She used to do a fair amount of TV work in the 80s.
