Exactly

The Redcoats were not an occupying force, it was a Government force stationed in Scotland and made up from folk of all parts of Britain, they were there to keep the peace, indeed Scottish regiments were involved at Culloden and at previous battles. Lowland Scots, the majority, and the cities of Glasgow and Edinburgh wanted nothing to do with the rebel force who threatened to burn the city of Glagow down unless they handed over supplies and money The Jacobites were no more than a rebel force within the country, there were many Jacobites in England but they did not rebel. Many of the Highland clans did not want anything to do with the rebellion and only did so through promises and allegiance to the Stuarts This show is a romantic fiction but it portrays historical events in a totally one sided manner with no believability The Author should have done some research

This show has descended into utter drivel I presume it's some sort of fiction based in historical fact but can anyone tell me where Wentworth is located in Scotland never mind a prison. It seems to want to portray the story as English against Scots Highlanders when the facts are that it was generally Lowland Scots against Highlanders I found this episode stomach churning and totally unbelievable, they didn't bury the dead but threw them down some sort of chute to lie unburied outside....really? I know it's only a show but this is how some folk get their Historical education these days and this is complete fantasy.
