Ah, Scotland. Been there many times. Sampled many fine malt whiskies, and drank dozens of Harviestoun Bitter & Twisteds. And what, perchance, are the most popular locally-produced beverages of choice with the Scots? Well...Glen's Vodka and Tennent's Lager. More of the decent stuff for me, I suppose. But really.
In this somewhat peculiar commercial (unlikely events depicted in ads to promote beer? Who'd'a thought it?), an expatriate Scot ditches his London business life to go back to Edinburgh, simply because people are all bastards and he misses drinking Tennent's with his mates. I presume he took the train, as he's seen walking down Princes Street. Possibly he even started before he got off, like the eight Scots I shared a train with in 2009 who were also drinking Tennents, if I remember correctly. I thanked my bottle of Glenfiddich 18 for getting me through the 2 hour discussion of their sex lives.
What will happen to Mr. Jock Repatriated after this is not recorded. Perhaps, as he no longer has any means of income, he will start on the other famous product of the Wellpark Brewery and end up with a Purple Court Appearance...
