Yeah, them boys were a "spirited" bunch.

I can imagine that reading a constant dialect could be a challenge. It's hard enough just listening sometimes. Like Broadchurch, the series, which I absolutely adored. But, David Tennant spoke with such a think Scottish brogue that sometimes we could just not understand certain things. We would back up the disk and play it over and over but still not quite get the words.

Still fun, though, eh?
