Visions of Scotland is a treat for fans of the country or anyone who loves spectacular scenery. The gently gliding aerial footage (shot from a helicopter) captures the rolling hills and classic architecture of the Scots, traveling from Edinburgh’s Royal Mile to St. Andrews Royal and Ancient Golf Club, to Perth, the northern Lochs (including Loch Ness, of course, and its famous ruins of Urquhart Castle), Duart Castle, McCaig’s Towers, and many other points. The sights range from the sublime (a lone bird soaring over the highlands) to the mundane (the Friday commute in Glasgow). Narration provides brief and helpful descriptions of the locations plus small dabs of history, such as John Knox, Robert the Bruce, and William Wallace. The music is pleasant, both classical and regional (though the bagpipes sound slightly electronic), and what else besides the famous folk song could accompany the sight of Loch Lomond? In addition to the hourlong main program, there’s 25 minutes of narrator-less bonus footage, including the charming sight of tiny sheep scampering across the Isle of Kerrera

Romanticized by Sir Walter Scott’s famous novel, lionized most recently by Hollywood and the magic of the big screen –the story of Rob Roy has endured and is burned deep into Scotland’s national legend.

Born Robert Roy MacGregor in 1671, he embarked upon the violent life of an outlaw after the Duke of Montrose seized his lands and his fortune in 1712. As the head of the Highland Scottish clan, he pursued his career as a bandit and the stories of his bravery and courage grew. Although they are largely unsubstantiated, tales abound of Rob Roy’s generosity to the poor and oppressed earned him a reputation as a latter day Robin Hood.

Featuring stunning action footage from the movie Chasing The Deer plus dramatic reconstructions and re-enactments, Rob Roy –The True Story is a compelling look at the facts behind the legend.
