Wasn't there a Roger Gough in Scaffold?

Scotsman sitting on a train across from a busty blonde wearing a tiny mini skirt.
Despite his efforts, he is unable to stop staring at the top of her thighs.
To his delight, he realises she has gone without underwear.
The blonde realises he is staring and inquires, "Are you looking at my growler?" "Yes, I'm sorry, " says the Scotsman and promises to avert his eyes.
"It's quite alright," replies the woman, "It's very talented, watch this, I'll make it blow a kiss to you."
Sure enough the growler blows him a kiss.
Wee Hughie, who is completely absorbed, inquires what else the growler can do.
"I can also make it wink, " says the woman.
The Scotsman stares in amazement as the growler winks at him.
"Come and sit next to me," suggests the woman, patting the seat.
The Scotsman moves over and is asked, "Would you like to stick a couple of fingers in?"
Stunned, The Scotsman replies, "Good grief! Can it whistle, too?"

At one point when the stewardess came over who was Scottish and they were talking she also said to me, 'Are you Scottish?' and quick as a flash with a glint in his eye he said 'Oh no, it's typical I get sat next to an Englishman' so quick as a flash I replied 'yep and it's typical I get stuck next to a Rangers captain, I'd have preferred Celtic

I eventually asked him his name and he told me. So as the plane was taxiing off I texted my father in law who is a massive Rangers fan that I was sitting next to Roger Gough who I'd never heard of. I said nice to meet you Roger when we disembarked. Nice fella.
I've just googled him.

Having snuck a cheeky upgrade into business class as I was getting comfortable when some friendly fella sat next to me and said hello, pointed to my Rugby shirt and said 'rugby man hey. Which club?'. I happened to be wearing an English top.
After chatting for a while I mentioned that I'd been so busy lately that I hadn't seen any sports results for sometime and that the only thing I knew at the moment was the respective positions of Celtic and Rangers. To whit his reply was 'I was at the Rangers game yesterday, I used to play for them'
As the conversation continued he proceeded to tell me he'd played for them for 11 years, and Everton & Tottenham for a while. Then mentioned something about being captain during the 9 or somewhat???
