Crap Towns

I know near to 0 when it comes to crap towns 'round Britain even because I know nothing above Bristol... unfortunatelly, or not.
I have a mate, living in Berlin now, he did uni in Edinburgh, he could swear for his life that this little town next to Dundee,
had to be the worst place in this fucken island. He had traveled a lot with a theater company, all over the UK....
?******? is my biggest reference of shit hole.

Any ideas what it could be?

Mate it could be any number of shithole Scottish towns. Kirkcaldy, Stirling, Dunfermline, Cumbernauld (ooooh fucking Cumbernauld....shivers)......too many to choose from....
