A History of Scotland
Last Saturday, I really enjoyed watching this documentary on the history of Scotland, one of the most beautiful countries I’ve ever visited. As it turns out, it’s a series, so I hope I can watch the next episodes too. The documentary explored the Scotland of the early middle ages, when it was still divided into four large parts, every part ruled by a different tribe: vikings, Picts, Gaels, and Angles. Most of all, the documentary was beautifully shot, showing off Scotland’s most beautiful scenery, the rough Highlands, the glenns, the lochs, and the ruins of old castles. It reminded me off our beautiful journey to the Isle of Skye and furthermore think of visiting the country again soon. The documentary is broadcasted on BBC 2, on Saturdays from 21:00-22:00 CET, and made in cooperation with the Open University UK. More information can be found here. Oh yeah, and check out the accent of the narrator/presenter: it’s just brilliant!
