There were Pictish tribes in Scotland as far north as Shetland.

I don't consider them the same as Hallstatt Celts (pure stock Celts).
They (Picts etc.) absorbed lots of DNA from the stone-hedge builders, who were not Celtic but native Briton.

What did the Hallstatt celts look like anthropologically ? Like the Roman "Dying Gaul" or "Dying Galatian" ancient Roman statue ? Anyhow, Scots absorbed not just the Picts and their meditteranean traits but also other Britons fleeing the Saxons via NorthCumbria and of course there is also Viking and Angle (Danish and Norwegian admixture in the Scots) as well as Flemish and perhaps French Huguenot but really Scots are Pictish(Britonnic)-Gaelic/Gaidhlig-Cymru(Welsh/Briton)-Angle-(Danish)-Norse(Norwegian) and most of them speak a Germanic lowland Scottish language closely related to Olde English so most Scots technically aren't 'Celts' in that sense. East Anglia England may be 38% Germanic on average while Scotland and Wales are 30% Germanic with large spread (some more than 30% etc.. I'm about 34 or 36%). Anyhow, people say I look 'Celtic' despite a large chunk of my phenotype being native Briton (mesolithic-neolithic mediterranean stone henge type) that is why I'm Atlantid (half nord half med ).

I think I look more Scottish or Cornish than English so in that sense in comparison to the English I'm 'Celtic' but that is only relatively speaking rather than absolutely.

What do you consider northern Europe? Of course, Scotland was full of Celtic tribes, including Orkney Islands.

And according to this guy, the Cimbri tribe was a Celtic enclave (surrounded by Germanic tribes) in Jutland:

And this map shows Celtic tribes / settlement areas in Poland:

I’ve recently heard it asserted that the Cimbri could have been a Proto or Pre-Germanic survival under uneven influence from surrounding people. I have nothing to support this, though myself.

Nope. The northern-most part that celts colonized was belgium and Britain, Scandinavia never experienced celtic colonizations

There is a whole heap of Celtic samples waiting to be published and Generalissimo said

They were very Northern European, as you shall soon see.

What is the chance that Italian Gauls were 'very Northern European'?

You can ask David. I'm just reposting what he said.
