Scottish Max Headroom: Cyberned

Joe sez, "Top Glasgow-based fantasy author Mike Cobley (writer of the Shadowkings series) has posted a piece to YouTube called 'Cyberned' in which he looks a bit like a cross between a Glaswegian Max Headroom and Holly from Red Dwarf. BTW, a 'ned' in Scotland is like a 'chav' in England." I don't know if it's the dialog, the video, or the Glaswegian accent, but this is the most compelling nonsense I've ever seen.
