background: Irvine tartan

Edmund: Half of them [Scots] can’t even speak English.

Baldrick: What do they speak?

Edmund: I don't know - it’s all Greek to me.

Percy: They speak Greek?

Edmund: No, I mean it sounds like Greek.

Percy: Well, if sounds like Greek, it probably is Greek.

Edmund: It’s not Greek!

Percy: ...but it sounds like Greek. “What’s not Greek but sounds like Greek?” That’s a good one, My Lord!

Edmund: Look, it’s not meant to be a brain teaser, Percy! I’m simple telling you that I cannot understand a blind word they’re saying!

Percy: Well, no wonder, My Lord -- you never learned Greek, of course.
