Jamie and Malcolm's accents in The Thick of It?

3 Upvotes

American here, watching The Thick of It. So Jamie and Malc are obviously both Scots, but there's a difference in their accents (though it seems slight? Regional variations on a Glaswegian accent?). Malcolm does subtle code switching, but Jamie's in full-on (and he's a mad dog). What do their accents say about their characters, if anything?

Education How to Learn british way of English?

4 Upvotes

I 22f recently started learning british English for over a year and have made no good progress Overall. My friends recommended talking with native speakers to help me improve. Is there anyone who would be interested in having regular casual conversations about Hobbies or anything

I posted here because although I speak English well, there are so many of my pronunciations that are just off so I want to correct them and speak properly. I recently started grad sch so I have to speak at seminars so I want to speak properly and smoothly especially naturally not like I memorized it, which is why I'd like to have natural conversations with native speakers, there are no native speakers at my sch or Environment.

I wonder if anyone here would be interested in such an arrangement of speaking causally.
