    I’ve never understood why the character couldn’t just be Scottish. There is no need for him to have a London accent - the show isn’t even set in London.

      Agreed. No family members have ever been mentioned either. Would have made more sense to be a mancunian accent.
      However it is the BBC, so maybe it was just that they wanted their main character to speak more “bbc”

      @@travelwell6049 Or maybe they wanted a spread of accents. Adrian Dunbar is Irish, Vicky McClure is from Nottingham and both use their real accents. So you have one Celtic character, one from the Midlands and one from South East England.
      To have Martin Compston use his real accent would've been an imbalance of Celtic accents.

    I’d only ever seen Martin in LoD, it wasn’t until I watched The Nest and was impressed with his (so) Scottish accent that I found out it was the other way around, which blew my mind even more. As an actor I suppose it’s not a surprise he can do it but....mother of god it’s good!
