    As its a quiet Sunday evening, and Mrs C is watching rubbish her television programmes, I have found my way to YouTube, and have spent the last half hour or so watching Stanley Baxter's Parliamo Glasgow. I've had a right good laugh, and thought I's share with my GC friends (it may even help some of you who haven't visited Scotland yet to understand the language) :biggrin:

      Gosh, if I do visit Scotland and chance to a small village pub, I am going to be in real trouble understanding stuff.

        You'll be fine redstar - it is mainly Glasgow where the accent is as pronounced as that (and even then, its not as exaggerated in most places);

        Oh he has always been a favourite of mine FC.. Such wit & comic acting ability.. Brilliant chap in my book.. It was lovely to see him come out of retirement back in 2008 for the Xmas special, as he is 86 now.! :SUNsmile:
        I think Crooks Anonymous was my favourite of his films.. :biggrin:
