Scottish Call Centre

FX: Phones ringing, Scottish voices answering etc

MAN: Okay, so in future I think the best thing to do would be just be to not shave your PIN number into the back of your cat. Okay, have a nice day, sir.

FX: Puts down phone

MAN: Ah, bollocks!

WOMAN: What is it?

MAN: Ah... I'm meeting someone tonight, but if I get one more call like that I'll miss my bus.

WOMAN: These calls are from London, right?

MAN: Yeah...

WOMAN: Well then why don't just do what I do. If you don't want them to stay on too long; just pretend that your accent's too thick to understand.

MAN: What?

FX: Phone rings

WOMAN: Oop, there's mine. Look I'll show you...

FX: Picks up phone

ENGLISH GUY (DISTORTED): Um... Hello. Someone's taken money out of my account without me knowing!

WOMAN: Ahhh soo yoo e'een dool on ye' lawllon goll dooyelargh?

ENGLISH GUY: Um...Pardon...

WOMAN: Dorandoo?

ENGLISH GUY: Um... you know what. Never mind... I...um... they gave it back.

FX: Hangs up

WOMAN: See?

MAN: Wow... and... they never just ask you speak more clearly?

WOMAN: They're too embarrassed. They can't ask you to sound less Scottish, it sounds racist.

FX: Phone rings

WOMAN: There, give it a go.

MAN: Um...

FX: Picks up reciever

MAN: Um... Sporran cabertoss haggis aye?

COCKNEY (DISTORED): Awight, 'aws abbaat dooinaat oii naw! WERP!

MAN: Um... What was that sir? (REALISES HE'S STOPPED SPEAKING UBER-SCOTTISH)Oh!

COCKNEY: Aappps ona waalen! Goyien sarswan!

MAN: Oh...dear...

Thick Scottish or thick Geordie accents.
