That verson (Beamish) is a lovely one to compare with the original clip, as it's so similar in character.
One more thing for your information, Anna, is that the "Geordie" (north-east England) dialect is a lot closer to lowland Scottish than it is to most other English dialects, so any confusion is understandable. It's also more influenced by Scandinavian languages than any other variety of English is.
