Interview with Sir William Alan Macpherson of Cluny and Blairgowrie

[Jock Scot]

Thanks for posting the link. Very interesting, indeed. As I listened to many of the clan chiefs, I noticed something interesting...almost all of them did not have that heavy Scottish accent but, instead, sounded English. Is it just my ear or did anyone else catch this?

A mixture of English prep schools, English Public(meaning private!) schools, English universities, Sandhurst,the British Army and working in London to keep the Scottish estate viable has a tendency to water down(British understatement in action here) the Scots accent.
