Neat. Looks like a Romanian horn violin, at the foot of this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroh_violin

Aye, the angle of that bow is a dead giveaway.

There's no shortage of them - all seemingly talented musicians - but with very limited repertoires. I imagine they'll get a gig on Transatlantic Sessions before long.

Oh be fair - some good friends of mine have had Scottish girlfriends, and they speak very highly of their repertoires.
