Ok he's not my favourite but I do like Frankie Boyle Grin

I stay beside Battle of Bannockburn and I alway think about Robert the Bruce as I walk my dogs around his statue.

I don't think lovely dame Maggie is Scottish is she?

I'd go for Ewan McGregor and James McAvoy because they're lush good actors.
