Little accent confusion

CiniO

I'm not native English speaker.
I found some old comedy video which I find quite funny

As I understand most of it, I don't know 2 things.

1. Why is the guy saying with Scottish accent, while I understand him and his mate are from Birmingham (as far as I know it's not in Scotland).

2. Even I listened to it good few times, I can understand last sentence - precisely what he said after "I've been joking to him .... " ?

As by living in Ireland I got used to Irish accent, Scottish accent is still a big mystery for me...

Thanks for explainin.

Just to make it easier to see

BTW, there's no Scottish accent. Jasper Carrot is from Birmingham and has put on a Mancs accent during this routine.

He says "I've been talking to them while you were in the bog, I've been telling them how lucky they are to be..." I don't know the last word. Terminal? Two-one up?

I thought it was Scottish. Anyway I listened a bit to accents today, and I think I can hear the difference now

Anyway it confuses me even more.
What the whole joke is about - if there were hundreds United fans around, and guys are from Birmingham, why are they speaking with Manchester accent?

I seemed to be funny for me, but now I think I just don't understand the main sense of this joke.

So why did he say, that everybody know they are from Birmingham?

They knew because his friend was shouting across the room to him in his thick birmingham accent, its a very distinct accent
