Sorry, but sadly any humour, if ever there was such, has been lost in what can only be described as a throw-back to 50year old typecasting.Any language spoken in such a rough, coarse, abrupt and surly manner will sound unattractive.One need only look at Scots; the same language that gave us the beauty of Burns also gave us the gruff unattractive Rab C Nesbitt.

I have to admit that I've never heard a German speaking so aggressively JRB.Also I sympathise with any foreigner attempting to learn English in some areas of Dundee. :)
Very true, Jim. I do miss his shows.
I appreciate your opinion and I thank you.
