There appears to be some confusion here. The man to whom Darrell referred wishes to speak like an "elderly Scottish gentleman." I do not think that they would speak Scots, the language found in the Electric Scotland website provided by Gilmore. Of course not knowing the play, it is difficult to know for certain the context the Scottish gentleman is in. Many of the Scottish gentlemen of my ken were educated south of the border, so their Scottish accent is a little..."softer." Scots wasn't/isn't the language spoken in the Highlands, anyway.
