I bow to your superior knowledge but I would be pushed to identify the nationality of anyone from that picture. I don’t doubt he was Scottish and can only assume in his defence that he meant no disrespect but had lost 50 pence in the fountain and was desperately looking for it.Once you have defeated the idiots any job is half done. Pity there are so many idiots to defeat.

I don’t get the Wigan edition of love island... it seems the people here are well fed, is it endemic to the area?

It's an untruth to be perfectly honest which might be why you don't understand it, I'll explain.
During the general strike of 1926, Wigan was a large mining town and all the miners downed tools. However, as the strike dragged on and the miners families started to starve, many were forced to return to work and thus eat "humble pie". This is why, today, Wiganers are known as pie eaters.
This is often misunderstood as them actually preferring to eat a lot of pies, so it is presumed the residents are somewhat fat. Hence the incorrectly advised picture and the reason you don't understand it.
In more modern times Wigan is home to the World Pie Eating Championship which I understand is an annual event.
