The Year of Bonnie Prince Charlie 1745-1746
On Video and DVD

Prince Charles Edward Stuart, after Antonio David, The Drambuie Collection

Retracing the Prince's footsteps through the romantic scenery of the Highlands and Hebrides in a tapestry of vision, music and verse. On 19th August 1745, in an attempt to regain the throne for the House of Stuart, Prince Charles Edward, son of the exiled James III, raised his father's standard at Glenfinnan. He was joined by 700 Camerons and 300 Macdonalds, and this marked the beginning of what is known as the '45 Jacobite Rebellion.

Although the army of Highland clansmen rose to around 9000 at one time and they marched to within 130 miles of London, the rising ended in a devasting defeat at Culloden Moor on 16th April 1746. The Prince spent the next five months in flight through the Highland hills and the Hebrides, until he was rescued by a French ship on 20th September 1746. The story of that year has become one of the most romantic episodes in Scottish history and in this 55-minute video, we tell the tale while retracing his route today through magnificent loch and mountain scenery. Interwoven throughout are some of the best known and beautiful Jacobite songs.

The Battle of Prestonpans The White Cockade Ye Jacobites by name The Highlanders Farewell The Skye Boat Song The Bonnie Moorhen Will ye no' come back again?
A map of the Prince's route is on screen at the end of the video.
