Great job mate. Look forward to your next show

[@davidfinan4041]

Nicely done!

[@enjarichards8100]

I have seen some pretty awful documentaries on this fascinating battle made by professionals and historians, and this is better than all of them! A few minor historical errors - the aircraft carrier was one - but a good overview. Well done Calum.

[@Medeann8675309]

Well done!! Thank you for the bit of history.

[@scottishjamie1267]

Outstanding nice one Calum this is the best thing I’ve seen all year, you’re a really good speaker very clear and I really really appreciate the time and effort and hard work you’ve put into this and I’m looking forward to watching your other work, very well done young man 100% amazing!

That was really interesting and informative Calum - and very clever. Please keep up your excellent work.

Hi Callum. Thank you for all your hard work and producing a most interesting and enjoyable video. Well done you.

[@Oaronuviss]

Well done little man. My ancestor was there that day commanding the Stoneywood Battalion. Thank you for shedding light on this important battle.

[@deborahdennison571]

then you will appreciate that the depiction of the southern battle lines which included Stoneywood isn't there. The Government Dragoons were stopped by the Jacobites from outflanking and never joined the centre action as depicted.

[@Oaronuviss]

@@deborahdennison571 I wouldn't expect this wee lad to know all the fine details hence why I'm not upset Stoneywood wasn't mentioned. For him to bring this up and mention it with this skill is by far spectacular and amazing. Needs no further detail until well into his teenage years or adulthood.

[@danefilmproductions2231]

@@Oaronuviss So if he does a little scene calling Hitler a hero, you will still praise him for his accurate depiction of history? What ever happened to honouring the truth? - especially for kids. Praise the effort by all means, but stop saying it's accurate history. You are teaching him that facts don't matter.

[@johnshort5003]

Very entertaining - like a Trumpton version of the battle of Culloden.

Oh my goodness, blood!! I really liked this and how it told the story really clearly of what happened. I also think I recognised the soldier who stubbed his toe.

[@deborahdennison571]

It doesn't!

[@danefilmproductions2231]

But it didn't clearly tell what happened. Praise the boy for his effort, fine - don't say it tells what happened, because it doesn't.

[@SW-sw1sd]

Hi Calum, I also love learning about Scottish Battles and History at my University and often come home and tell my son Zack about it. We love your videos and they're a great way for Zack and other kids to learn about our History. Keep up the great work. Zack and I are looking forward to the next one. 💙

[@cynthiamiller9619]

Fantastic job! Well done!

[@richardfoster2859]

Well done Calum. Your story was well researched and cleverly delivered. However, the clan you described were the Campbells, who fought under the Duke of Cumberland, so you need an extra “p” to make the story correct. There were many more Scots on Cumberland’s side too, mostly from the lowlands. You did a good job on bringing the battle to life. Repeated thanks and “lang may yer lum reek.” Richard

I know who the Jacobites were (catholic soldiers supporting the Stuarts right?) but why the name "Jacobite" ? Where did that name copme from?

[@mcbeanstopmotion]

It's because Latin for James is jacobus so they got it from that.

Very cute, Calum, but what happened at Culloden was not cute and I'm afraid you don't have the action of the battle correct or the Night March to Nairn. Nice try. Learn a bit more about the action of the battle and be careful about the authenticity of your sources - sources are everything. Keep up the interest in history!

[@danefilmproductions2231]

the battlefield is under threat from development because there is so much misinformation spread about what happened and where. So please, you people, praise the young man for his effort and creativity, but don't praise him for accuracy, because it isn't - from the Night March to Nairn to the action at the southern flanks, this is way off. It is not 'clearer than the historians' Miss Julie Julie, it is not what happened there. If you praise this talented young man for getting the facts wrong, will he ever make an effort to get them right?

[@jackmclovin9586]

This hurt me with how many inaccuracies there where and it made me scared with how much gore there was so please don’t post anymore I am a Christian mother and this goes against my beliefs so please leave
