The Dundee-born actor described Brexit as 'this demon we don't talk about'.

Brian Cox has claimed the SNP has "backed off" from promoting Scottish independence during the general election campaign.

Asked if he was looking forward to the launch of the SNP's manifesto, he said: "I'm not quite sure what's going to happen, it could be, as Plaid Cymru have done, it could be backing away from the notion of independence. It's something that worries me as I still believe in independence." John Swinney has previously insisted independence will "proudly" be one "page one, line one" of his party's manifesto.

He added: "It seems to me that we are still suffering from that, and we've not done anything about it. So when we talk about other things, we can't really talk about where we are, as we are suffering from Brexit."
