I don't think I have managed to see the episode you refer to. however.

There is to be a mini series shown over Christmas on the BBC about the young James Heriot at Glasgow Veterinary School with a Scots accent that he never had in the original series!
I've been watching the Young James Herriot, the third and final episode is shown tonight (Tuesday), I've found it quite a good and interesting programme mostly populated with good Scots actors with true Scots accents.
In the first episode one of the young students was wearing a kilt at the vet college, he is the actor that potrays Charlie in the Scots soap 'River City'
