You can watch this 30 minute television programme in full from the comfort of your own Continent.

Anyone living out of range of Scottish television should not miss this stirring programme. You may not get the opportunity again. Seems it was first screened 2006.

I enjoyed this programe although I was dissapointed as expected with how the public vote differed from the academics, it just showed how the publics perception of Scottish history seems to be based on the usual tabloid approach to history rather than the reality but perhaps it is best not to get into that.

Yes Andrew,

I really enjoyed the first programme, even on the micro screen, and have been looking forward to the second but it’s been over a week now without any sign of it.
Will just have to be patient, keep an eye open, and hope it turns up.
