He has battled villains across the globe, captivating generations of readers, and now the legions of devoted Tintin fans will see him face one of his biggest challenges – speaking in Scots.
The endearing Belgian cartoon boy reporter will don a kilt as he scampers around the Highlands conversing in Scottish dialect in a new translation of one of his classic adventures.
But Tintin purists may be horrified to learn that the wholesome hero’s Scots adventure at times evokes memories of drunken Glaswegian comedy character Rab C Nesbitt.
