I tend to forget Americans haven't really heard most of Scotland's accents.

Most people associate the Scottish accents with Sean Connery, Billy Connolly, Groundskeeper Willie, Frankie Boyle, the same generic area. Also the accent I have.

But the further up North you go, the more interesting they get. Especially when you get to the isles.

For a country with so few people (relatively speaking) it is amazing how much variance there is in the Scottish accent.

On an unrelated note, and to bring this vaguely back on topic, Bill McLaren's voice was the sexiest thing that has ever existed.

He's okay. Mostly it has been non-famous Irish guys who's accents have really done a number on me. Guys I went to college with. I don't really know exactly where they were from then.

Just like I'm sure that if I said I was Mustang, Oklahoma, you won't remember where the hell I'm from in 10 months.

It's the name of a horse. It's not hard to remember.

Also: Stop mixing up the Scots and Irish.

Yours sincerely,

Every Scot and Irish in existence.

Indeed. It's also rather annoying how many people can confuse a Scottish accent with a Russian one.

Damn Connery.

Well, I'm not a native English speaker so I often get Irish and Scottish people mixed up. Never do with Canadians, British and Australians, though. That's something, huh? huh?

Russian and Scottish sound NOTHING ALIKE! I've actually had someone from the Netherlands say that they did!

Whilst we're on the subject of correcting accent misconceptions...

[British refers either to the nation of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, or to the British Isles generally: either way the word 'British' encompasses the English, Welsh, Scottish and at least some of the Irish. Because it's the largest, has the most population and carries the most cultural punch overseas, England has come to typify 'Britain' in the eyes of many, whereas in fact the English are a mere subset of the British both as a people and accent. On the subject of accent, to say there's such a thing as an 'English' accent is also somewhat misleading: England alone has a huge variety of accents depending on location, from Yorkshire to the RP mentioned earlier to the West Country.
Tl;dr, English and British are different things and some people get quite cross about the difference]

Great Britain is the mainland; England, Scotland and Wales (Does not include any of the islands). The UK is England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Island (Islands included).

The full name of the UK is 'The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland'. Great Britain is the big island, Northern Ireland is the bit of the smaller one that the UK kept hold of when it lost the rest of Ireland. Don't even ask why that one happened, it's a dangerous kettle of fish.

The UK involves Northern Ireland but not the Republic of Ireland. Great Britain is just Scotland (for now) England and Wales.

Who on Earth would confuse Scottish and Russian?

And, to be fair...McGregor "hides" his accent in just about every movie in the last 10 years that he's been in. It is easy to forget where the hell he's from.

Also, you know that now it is a horse, but you just see, I'm going to ask you in 10 months and you won't remember. Why? Because you don't remember every little fact about acquaintances.
