'Irish Wrist Watch' popular Scots TikTokker reveals phrases Scots will struggle to say

A Scots TikTokker has created a fun series of videos with some of the phrases Scots will apparently struggle to say.

TikTok star Sully (rsullivan1991) posted clips on the social media site of himself trying to say some of the lines and finding himself bemused when he can't.

The first, "Purple Burglar Alarm", is a well known phrase that often trips up anyone with a Scottish accent.

The second, less known one is "Irish Wrist Watch" which he also hilariously struggles to say properly.

The videos which have nearly 500,000 likes between them have gone down a storm with fans laughing at his attempts.

Poking fun at the Purple Burglar Alarm video, one user posted: "Purple Blaglaglam. I can't."

Another added: "You sound like you're literally gurgling water."

Welsh and Northern Irish users were quick to point out that they couldn't say "Irish Wrist Watch" either.

Other videos he has made include him trying to say the name Karl and the phrase Curly Wurly.

One fan suggested for his next video was to try saying "red leather yellow leather."
