Scottish countryside is unbelievably beautiful. And don't ever be afraid to go anywhere in Scotland. People will chat away and help you. Especially in the highlands and islands. We don't even bother locking our doors most of the time. American tourists missed the train once so we invited them for tea (dinner) they had a great time and stayed the night!! They still email us at Christmas!!🤣👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Yeah I'm English and I'm up there a lot for work, I haven't had a nut dropped on me yet. Joking aside, I love it up there, the people are great.

[@StrudlePie]

Niiiice!! My house growing up was right beside the Kennacraig ferry to Islay and Jura, and the amount of people we let stay in our caravan that had missed the last Ferry was unbelievable! We had the same guy ask us if he could just call us and stay whenever he came back. I swear once you get out of the central belt everyone is just sound af!! We see it as a sport to be nice!! 😅

Yes Kevin bridges tours the UK about every 3 years and sells out quickly. I saw him In Birmingham which is 300 miles from Glasgow his hometown and was fully sold out. He really connects with the average citizen and you can tell he's never forgotten his working class roots

[@roddiecameron8661]

Congratulations on your engagement.❤

[@avtomatt554]

What's funny is that he's actually toning his accent down because he's being filmed. He actually does a great American accent when he wants to. Kev I.N. is absolutely my favorite stand up comedian currently, even though I don't catch every reference. I'm American, and one of the reasons I can more or less understand a Glaswegian accent aside of watching Limmy's Show is from reading Irvine Welsh (who wrote Trainspotting). His work is often written in Scots, and muppets like me have to read it out loud to understand it. Also I love Danny Dyer, but "prick's prick" is the best thing I've ever heard.

[@iselldreams]

Fun fact Kevin Bridges comes to the Highlands often to test out his new jokes. He plays in wee hotel bars for like a £5 that sell out in minutes. Seen him twice locally. Awesome guy

[@casecurityandelec]

No way really?

[@iselldreams]

@@casecurityandelec Yeah, Billy Connolly use to do the same. My folks saw Robin Williams and Billy Connolly doing a stand-up show together for £1 at the Misty Isle in the 90s (hotel in the isle of Skye.)

I'm a poncey English Muppet and I've pretty much been ok understanding the Scottish accent... Except for some real deep Glaswegian, sometimes! My bad! I'm a big fan of the writer Irvine Welsh and I read a great book of his called 'Glue', and, for the first sixty pages or so, I couldnae understand 50% of the Edinburgh slang. Got there in the end! Love the Scots ❤

[@jonmoore873]

There are people in Glasgow that don’t understand some people in Glasgow mate so don’t think it’s just you.

[@rian202003]

Cheers brother

[@alansinclair4577]

If you struggle with the Glasgow accent, wait until you try the Aberdeen accent 😂

[@NickiTwix]

I’m from Ayrshire in Scotland and I feel like we use way more slang than Glaswegians

[@Mantis_Toboggan_MD.]

When he mentions Scottish football, the reason for the tension in the room (which he acknowledges) is that this was filmed in Glasgow and the football rivalry in Glasgow is intense to put it mildly. I won't bore you with a longwinded explanation as to why that is the case but just take it from me there is nothing in American sports that comes remotely close to the intensity of the rivalry between Celtic/rangers (commonly referred to as "The old firm" ) in Scotland. It is a VERY touchy subject for any public figure to bring up, let alone a comedian.

[@Skankhunt42....]

Well, not just that, the tension really came from the time this was filmed. Rangers had just declared bankruptcy and been relegated down to the lowest level of Scottish football as a result. Lots of people probably thought he was gonna make jokes about that and that would divide the room haha. He is a Celtic fan after all, so is Billy Connolly. All the funny Glaswegians lol

[@paulmidsussex3409]

Lets be honest nothing in American sports comes remotely close to the intensity of the rivalry between Crystal Palace and Brighton let alone Celtic/Rangers.

[@scottirvine121]

And they’re both hated by most FYI

[@Mantis_Toboggan_MD.]

@@paulmidsussex3409 LOL! very true.

[@loxism72]

Rangers died on October 31st. Only celtic are an old firm. Rangers are a new firm. You're welcome.

[@Mantis_Toboggan_MD.]

This was filmed in 2012 in the SECC ( Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre) which held about 10,000 or thereabouts. Some of the references have dated now. "The Pope's a Bundesliga man" is a reference to the fact that the Pope at that time was a German (Pope Benedict XVI). The "Bundesliga" is the German equivalent of the "Premier League" The reason for the "Feel the tension in the room" line is that earlier in 2012 Rangers Football Club had suffered some erm "financial difficulties" shall we say and owed the UK tax man in excess of £100 million as well as many other parties (including a face painter!) and to bring this up in front of a Glasgow audience (of whom probably 50% support rangers) would honestly be like bringing up '9/11' to a New York Audience in 2002. The entire crowd are thinking "Where are you going with this Kevin...."

[@CarsonThomson23]

hmm quite a bad analogy between rangers fc dying and 911

As a Londoner who used to be a long distance delivery driver, I loved going to Scotland, stunning, beautiful scenery. I also love the Scot's as they are proud, tough, down to earth people, similar to a lot of Londoners. I find the media make up a lot of the supposed anamosity between the English and the Scot's, in my experience it's mainly friendly banter and piss taking. Personally, I hope Scotland always remains part of the UK.✌️
