Can anyone identify the origin of McBryde's accent in this film? Is it Welsh, Irish, Scottish?

Thank you.

Definitely Scottish (although the role was played by an English actor).

Not surprised you can't identify it. As Scottish He can't maintain it for more than a sentence at a time. He keeps slipping into English. It must have been pretty bad, because I don't normally notice such things.
