It is a bit of a stretch, but in the movie Vertigo, the character played by Jimmy Stewart was nicknamed "Scotty."

So that's three.

No love for Craig Ferguson, subby?

^{Far funnier than Jimmy Fallon, IMHYNCO}

Wolfmanjames: Since we're talking about Scotland, wouldn't a 'Stagger of Fame' be more appropriate?

I like it. The sidewalk "stars" could be puke splatter preserved in concrete.

WELSHIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

FeedTheCollapse: Simon Pegg is not Scottish.

JM Barrie, Robert Louis Stevenson, Lord Byron, Alexander Fleming, John Paul Jones, Eric Liddell, Joseph Lister, Dr Livingstone (I presume), Macbeth, Rob Roy, Allan Pinkerton, Robert the Bruce, Sir Walter Scott, William Wallace, Robert Watson-Watt, James Watt and John Witherspoon would love to *kiss* you, too, Subby.

/Scot and damn proud of it.
//Because ... if it's nae Scottish, it's crap!

You forgot Susan Boyle in that list.

Mel Gibson too!

Ms Campbell, an SNP MSP, has written to Culture Minister Fiona Hyslop suggesting the idea.

She said: "Scotland has made a huge contribution to the world and it is only right that we celebrate the success Scots have achieved at home and abroad.

She said artists and cultural stars such as John Byrne, Robbie Coltrane and Irvine Welsh could be honoured either with plaques or a star on the street.

Ok, lets analyse this suggestion...

John Byrne - who?
Robbie Coltrane - plays a fat drunk pretty well
Irvine Welsh - writes books about drug abusing Tourette's sufferers

Yup. A huge contribution to the world, right enough.

Came for the Shirley Manson pictures. Leaving disappointed all in a thistle.

Shatner's Bassoon:

Yeah, she could have at least picked people who made an enormous contribution to the world, of which there are many Scots to choose from.

*Shakes fist*
I didn't forget, but I was hoping all of you would. Still, we gave you penicillin. And Peter Pan. And the steam engine.

Scotland plans to create Hollywood-style Walk of Fame for famous natives. Early nominees include Groundskeeper Willie and both guys who played Scotty


What about Rens and Spud? We can make Begbie an honorary native for this.

Dang. Forgot an important one:

Gerard Butler. Good lord, why don't all men wear kilts???????

Gay boys in tights (not that there's anything wrong with that) is hardly something to be proud of. Accept the fact that the rest of the world is jealous of your fine whisky, and be proud of that. Damn proud.

Aw, c'mon, Peter Pan is and was a stellar piece of fiction.
/Claiming it and keeping it. But I'll drink a lovely Glenmorangie scotch wie ye.

I nominate

tea_and_cake: I nominate

Seconded, Thirded, Fourthed, Fifthed, Sixthed, Seventhed, Eighthed, Ninthed and Tenthed.

What? No love for Billy Connolly?

Crap. I forgot:

And I forgot:

Ya used me me, Skinnerrr!

texdent: A Scottish model

Who is that? She looks...smart. Large...IQ.

1lastcall: Yeah, she could have at least picked people who made an enormous contribution to the world, of which there are many Scots to choose from.

Meh. There's a few, but none worth wasting my taxes on a sparkley paving slab for. People are only going to puke on them anyway.

Man...the...conversations I could have with her. I bet she gives good oral...presentations.

Could start a (fun and polite) debate with you as to whether or not you've ever needed an antibiotic or talked on the phone, but am to busy girlfapping to Mr All Black Kilt five posts up.

Cheers!

It's hilarious until you realize you've stepped in shiat criticizing Scottish contributions to the general health wealth and well being of humanity.

I'm not a Scot or have any ancestry and even I know those farkers were brilliant back in the day.

Why not? Las Vegas has a walk of fame and they've managed to find some people to put in it.

SUbby screwed up
James Doohan is Canadian not Scottish, its a testimony to the fine acting skills he possessed

Phil Moskowitz: It's hilarious until you realize you've stepped in shiat criticizing Scottish contributions to the general health wealth and well being of humanity.

I bestow upon you the title of Honorary Scot. Feel free to wear a kilt and deliver the Glasgow Kiss upon those who would dare to belittle or mock the contributions of our great countrymen.

Waste of money. Something else for the tourists I suppose though, as there's fark all else to see around here.

Dumb-Ass-Monkey: What about the Scottish Conan guy?

Craig Ferguson, also hot:

Craig Ferguson is hot? Really?

My family moved away from Scotland when I was only five, so the only thing I remember about Scotland is that it was wet.

/Meh, what do I know.

so what we are saying is a walkway that celebrates everyone


who has left Scotland!

/Mike Myers beat you to it
//Heid...paper...now

Shatner's Bassoon: John Byrne - who?

If it's the John Byrne I'm thinking of, he's a well-known comic book writer and artist... but not Scottish. Born in England, grew up in Canada, became a US citizen as an adult.
