00:00

It's terrible being an intelligent woman

00:03

trapped in a Scottish accent and living in England.

00:05

(audience laughs)

00:07

I didn't know this was my voice

00:09

till I moved to England, right?

00:11

In my head, I talk like Stephen Fry,

00:13

and then moved down south and started going into shops

00:18

and people just looked at me like a dog was barking at them.

00:23

So, I've lived there for ten years,

00:26

and it's largely great, the shops are open for ages.

00:29

But one of the hardest things is every day for the last decade

00:34

what my English friends love to do to me

00:37

is repeat what I'm saying back at me

00:39

in a bad Scottish accent.

00:42

And they always have a look in their eyes like,

00:43

"She is gonna love when I do this."

00:46

(audience laughs) Every day.

00:49

I've got one friend that does it all the time,

00:50

her name's Haley.

00:51

She's always like, "Fern,

00:53

"this is my impression of you,

00:55

'Hello, I'm Fern Brady!'"

00:59

(chuckles) Thanks, Haley, I feel so comfortable.

01:03

This is my impression of you, "Please don't tell everybody

01:06

about the time I gave everybody at Uni chalmydia."

01:09

(fakes laughter) Sorry.

01:11

Sorry, still not getting that Cockney accent,

01:14

you fucking cow.

01:16

(audience laughs)

01:20

I never really thought much about being Scottish,

01:22

and then I moved to England and then I became Scottish Fern.

01:25

And then you realize that you're meant to live up

01:28

to this cartoon version of Scottishness,

01:30

where you're aggressive, a drunk,

01:32

allergic to salad, right?

01:34

Youse all know the drill.

01:38

It's hard for me to live up to this, right,

01:40

'cause I'm quite quiet offstage,

01:42

salad, can't get enough of it.

01:44

I was considered almost quite middle class growing up here.

01:48

Scottish middle class, not English middle class, right?

01:51

Scottish middle class is where you've been on a plane once

01:54

and Mum makes you eat fruit regularly.

01:56

(audience laughs)

02:00

Don't like drinking either.

02:02

This is quite a weird thing to say as a Scottish person

02:05

and a professional comedian, I don't like alcohol.

02:09

And not because I'm a recovering alch-y or anything,

02:11

I just don't need to drink to make me blunt and offensive

02:14

in social situations. (audience laughs)

02:16

Guys, that is a gift that I have naturally.

02:20

Here's another thing, be jealous immediately.
