I’ve got cousins from Dublin , cork , Kildare and Tipperary so you can tell just from family how many Irish accents I’m dealing with .

They’re talking about his accent for the scenes that take place before Connor left Scotland - up to that point, he’s meant to have spent his whole life there and his Scottish accent is atrocious. During the contemporary scenes and flashbacks that take place later in time, he uses a different accent (which is the one that’s explained as being the product of his having spent several hundred years travelling around) but that’s not what they’re criticising. Also, regardless of whether Ramirez should sound Spanish or Egyptian, he sure as hell isn’t meant to have Sean’s natural Scottish accent, so that’s also fair game.
