Well Billy boyd sounds very Scottish - I guess he does come from the north of the Shire
, but then they should have made Merry sound Welsh!
Bear in mind with the radio you have to do more with the voice and thay while I think Billy Boyd was the eldest of the actors playing hobbits in the film, they make far less distinction in age in the film than in the book and in the radio version. So on the Radio Frodo sounds older, Pippin very young, Merry scholarly, Sam rustic.
However this is off topic but I would be only too happy to discuss the Radio Series in a place that will not incur Modwrath.
