Do you pronounce Scottish with a stop in the middle, like Sco'ish?

Proper glottal stop is more northern English. Folks from Yorkshire, for example, would say "Sco'ish", like we say "Bra'fud" (Bradford). Quite an abrupt stop. Scots is more a "glottal slide" (than a stop) as @Gairdner demonstrates, "Scoaa'ish" < more a skid than a stop!
