This could have been a lot better than it was: Unfortunately, it let itself, and the viewer, down.
Things aren't helped by Tony Robinson - while he may be a good Presenter for 'Time Team', here he is obviously out of this depth, commenting on something he doesn't appear to know much about. It doesn't help that he takes a very patronising and sneering approach - why couldn't they have got someone else from 'Time Team' to present it. someone with an actual passion for history?
The documentary lets itself down quickly - shots of 'Scottish' troops ha them clad more akin to a soldier of the 1745 rebellion. While Robinson comes out with the facts (which to be fair, he does actually produce) there are scenes of Scots wearing great kilts (which wouldn't be worn until at least 1595) in 'Clan Tartans' (a modern invention) and armed with weaponry that didn't appear until at least 600 yeas later!
All in all a waste of time.
