Scotland did not save France. Scotland suffered immensely by supporting the French. Scottish armies were slaughtered at Neville's Cross and Flodden after they invaded England in support of France. The Scottish army in France under Buchan and Douglas was wiped out 1424 at Verneuil. Scotland would have been better off leaving France alone - the costs were high the benefits very low.

Read the books from Nigel Tranter, especially Lion let loose, it's about James I , from a young age to his death. Very good!

Your musician with the Scottish folk music is very nice sounding.

I've been trying to get documentaries on the early Stewarts for quite a while and this is the first time I've found a decent one. I love watching your programmes. A lot of our teachers at school did nothing to capture our imagination or keep our attention, speaking in monotone and droning on, but you are the complete opposite. I can remember things you've taught us lol.

I'm from Eastern Tennessee in the U.S. and I certainly no problem understanding you. I use to hang out with the Irish, mostly those from the north of Ireland and one of them was married to a Glasgow girl. Being use to the Northern Irish accent, I had no problems understanding. And having been around the Irish for three years, the father of my 3 daughters being from Belfast. Many people thought after we moved to Florida from New Jersey. Thought I was from Ireland and he was from England. Even my own mother thought this....but anyway, I still have no problem understanding any of your accents. Now the French, and other Europeans can't understand them at all half the time. Go figure....lol.

Lovely singing voice.

Please do the Clan Campbell attempt on James II?

Is that the origin of the saying, "Katie, Bar the Door!" ? What an amazing woman, knowing her arm would be broken, she put it in place of the bar. Wow!

The park has been a park since the 15th century AND they held gladiator style battles there as well?! My lawd man, what a magical place. The soil contains the spirits of the past and sprouts out the aspirations of the future.

I remember the story about Lady Douglas using her arm to keep that huge door closed, Very brave woman!

Look how fast the river is running

My brother is like James I...great at everything. I am more like his father, I have only 1 1/3 legs...and the rest, well, I leave it to your imagination. Thank you for this story. I am trying to learn all I can about this time period and Scottish soldiers fighting in France. I find it amazing how hard all monarchs struggled to have reliable sources of revenue. Thank you for this part of the big picture.

I really like your videos normally and I understand why you included the music in this one but I found I couldn't listen to what you were saying because of it. I'm a very strong auditory processor and rather than being able to listen to you my brain kept hearing the words in the music instead

From what I think I know, I am a descendant of Robert Ruadh (the name which became Reid), from north of Perth around Straloch, who captured the murderers of James I. For that action he was awarded, by James II, all the land he could see from where they stood. He was also awarded a prisoner in chains for his coat of arms. I am also a very distant relative of the royal Stuart line. I'd be very interested if you had anything about Robert. Thank you for a great channel.

Another tid bit for you to giggle at. My niece (my older brother's daughter) Married a young man named Stewart. After collage he joined the Air Force here in the states and having some fancy degree in computer science, he was assigned to keep the computers working on AIR FORCE ONE. You know the plane the President of the U.S. flies around in. Tom had that job for over 25 years, and recently retired a Colonial I believe. And his family originally comes from Scotland. And my niece's mother's maiden name was Campbell and they originally came from Scotland as well. My ancestry is ....I'm the United Nations....lol.

The music is amazing !!! Yeah musician , sportsman, intellectual AND a crazy witch hunter Wasn‘t king James the king who started the witch hunting in Scotland and England !?

You also left out that Robert III WAS named John. but King John Balloil had a claim to the throne. So he took his father's name.

Very good. The huge complexity of Scots faction and party are unravelled as anyone possibly could and still manages to be entertaining. I sometimes think that the Norman conquest of England advantaged that nation in as far as it removed old factions, tribes ,regional claims and counter claims to power by wiping out the ruling class of Anglo Saxon England in a few years. Not much of an advantage if you were English though.
