      I’m Scottish and have never really got why it’s a struggle in London. I can speak and be understood all round the world but get “sorry what was that” all the time in London. The ear for accents isn’t great. It’s either that or they don’t like Scottish people.

      @@leaflaurel Many Scottish actors tone down their accents when they do interviews it makes it easier for others to understand especially the viewers and the person asking question. It's also less stressful for the person too because if they use their strong accents I think other people act weird and stupid some people become a bit offensive. I would tone down my accent too if I had a strong foreign accent of my first language.

      He is a very talented and versatile actor with wide range. I am quite impressed by some of the works he has done. He is definitely getting noticed more and more. That being said, he seems very nervous during interviews probably because he’s very shy. However it doesn’t imply he’s boring in person. Since we know very little about what he is really like in real life, we’d better leave his private life out of this.
