With Beautiful Burnout being set in Scotland, the characters in the play all spoke with a Scottish accent. The script was also written in Scottish dialect, so it had words such as 'aye' and 'oot', which were actually 'yes' and 'out', but were just written differently to make them sound Scottish when they were spoken. I think that the script was written in Scottish dialect to make it more realistic for the actors when it came to reading the script and playing a Scottish character. This was the same for the script of Gotcha, as the story is set in a London comprehensive school, so it was written in a different dialect to make the words sound different when they were spoken to make the person speaking the dialogue sound like a Londoner. This included words like 'innit'.
