What have they done?
Without Glasgow accent, the film lost its charm.

Is the original only available on VHS?

# The producers re-dubbed the dialogue for the U.S. release to reduce heavy Glasgow accents, which would have been unintelligible to American audiences.

# The cost for dubbing the US release was more than the original film production costs.

Idiots!

Apparently the dubbed version is the only version released.

I'm sure it was a freebie in a Sunday newspaper a few years back..
