00:01:39 I shall tell you of William Wallace.
00:01:43 Historians from England will say I am a liar.
00:01:47 But history is written by those
00:01:52 The King of Scotland had died without a son.
00:01:56 a cruel pagan known as
00:02:01 claimed the throne of Scotland for himself.
00:02:04 Scotland's nobles fought him
00:02:07 and fought each other over the crown.
00:02:11 So Longshanks invited them
00:02:15 No weapons. One page only.
00:02:22 One farmer of that shire was Malcolm
00:02:27 He had two sons: John and William.
00:02:37 I told you to stay.
00:02:40 Well, I finished my work.
00:02:44 MacAndrews'. He was supposed
00:02:47 - Can I come?
00:02:49 - But I want to go.
00:02:53 Away hame, William.
00:03:20 MacAndrews.
00:03:35 Holy Jesus.
00:04:22 William.
00:04:28 It's all right, it's all right. Easy, lad.
00:04:48 William.
00:04:51 And I say we hit back now.
00:04:53 - We cannae fight them.
00:04:57 Wallace is right. We fight them.
00:04:59 Every nobleman willing to fight
00:05:02 We cannot beat an army.
00:05:06 We do not have to beat them...
00:05:09 - Now, who's with me?
00:05:13 - All right.
00:05:31 - Where do you think you're going?
00:05:34 Och, are ye? And what are you going to do?
00:05:38 - I'm gonna help.
00:05:43 But I need you to stay here
00:05:45 and look after the place for me
00:05:51 I can fight.
00:05:55 I know. I know you can fight.
00:06:03 But it's our wits that make us men.
00:06:11 See ye tomorrow.
00:06:44 - English.
00:06:47 With your father and brother gone,
00:06:52 It's up to us, Hamish.
00:07:58 Da?
00:09:20 William.
00:09:25 Come here, lad.
00:12:53 William.
00:12:57 I'm your uncle. Argyle.
00:13:13 You have the look of your mother.
00:13:26 We'll stay here tonight.
00:13:31 I don't want to leave.
00:13:33 You didn't want your father
00:13:37 But it happened.
00:13:42 Did the priest give a poetic benediction?
00:13:45 - The Lord bless thee and keep thee...
00:13:49 You don't speak Latin?
00:13:53 That's something we shall have to remedy.
00:13:59 The Lord
00:14:01 bless thee and keep thee.
00:14:04 The Lord cause his light to shine on thee.
00:14:07 The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee
00:14:10 and give thee peace.
00:14:13 Amen.
00:14:21 Your heart is free.
00:14:25 Have the courage to follow it.
00:14:54 What are they doing?
00:14:56 Saying goodbye in their own way.
00:15:00 Playing outlawed tunes on outlawed pipes.
00:15:14 It was the same for me and your daddy
00:15:45 First, learn to use...
00:15:49 this.
00:15:51 Then I'll teach you... to use
00:15:55 this.
00:16:26 Many years later,
00:16:28 Edward the Longshanks, King of England,
00:16:32 supervised the wedding of his eldest son,
00:16:39 Amen.
00:16:44 As bride for his son,
00:16:46 Longshanks had chosen
00:16:50 the King of France.
00:17:15 It was widely whispered
00:17:19 Longshanks would have
00:17:23 That may have been
00:17:30 Scotland...
00:17:33 My land.
00:17:36 The French will grovel
00:17:41 But how will they believe our strength
00:17:58 - Where is my son?
00:18:02 He asked me to come in his stead.
00:18:04 I sent for him and he sends you?
00:18:07 Shall I leave, my Lord?
00:18:10 If he wants his queen to rule when I am gone,
00:18:14 then by all means stay and learn how. Please.
00:18:23 Nobles.
00:18:25 Nobles are the key to the door of Scotland.
00:18:28 Grant our nobles lands in the North.
00:18:32 Give their nobles estates here in England.
00:18:38 But, sir, our nobles
00:18:41 New lands mean new taxes and they're
00:18:46 Are they?
00:18:49 Are they?
00:19:09 The trouble with Scotland
00:19:11 is that it's full of Scots.
00:19:18 Perhaps the time has come
00:19:20 to reinstitute an old custom.
00:19:23 Grant them primae noctis.
00:19:29 First night. When any common girl
00:19:34 our nobles shall have sexual rights to her
00:19:43 If we can't get them out,
00:19:45 we'll breed them out.
00:19:49 That should fetch just the kind
00:19:53 Taxes or no taxes.
00:19:55 A most excellent idea, sire.
00:19:57 Is it?
00:20:04 Now, in Edinburgh were gathered
00:20:08 Among these was Robert,
00:20:13 a leading contender
00:20:23 I hear that Longshanks
00:20:26 Clearly meant to draw
00:20:31 My father believes we must lull
00:20:35 by neither supporting his decree
00:20:38 - A wise plan.
00:20:42 His affairs in France keep him long overdue.
00:20:50 But he sends his greetings.
00:20:52 And he says that I speak
00:20:55 and for Scotland.
00:23:09 - You've dropped your rock.
00:23:14 You win.
00:23:18 Call it a test of soldiery, then.
00:23:20 The English won't let us train with weapons,
00:23:24 The test of a soldier is not in his arm.
00:23:28 No. It's here.
00:23:37 Hamish?
00:23:52 Here you go, son. Show him how.
00:23:55 - Come on, Hamish.
00:24:00 Come on.
00:24:14 That's a good throw.
00:24:16 Aye, it was.
00:24:19 I was wondering
00:24:24 As it... as it matters in battle.
00:24:29 Could you crush a man with that throw?
00:24:31 I could crush you... like a worm.
00:24:37 - You could?
00:24:39 Well, then, do it.
00:24:47 - Come and do it.
00:24:49 - I will not.
00:24:52 He'll move.
00:24:54 Come on, Hamish.
00:24:57 Come on there, boy.
00:25:07 Well done.
00:25:23 - A fine display.
00:25:27 - You look a wee bit shaky.
00:25:31 Aye.
00:25:38 Get up, you big heap of...
00:25:41 - It's good to see ye again.
00:25:46 - Look what you did to my head.
00:26:00 William, will you dance with me?
00:26:03 Of course I will.
00:26:30 I've come to claim the right
00:26:33 As lord of these lands, I will bless this
00:26:40 on the first night of her union.
00:26:43 By God you will not!
00:26:48 It is my noble right.
00:28:52 - Good evening, sir.
00:28:56 - A grand soft evening.
00:28:59 Might I have a word with your daughter?
00:29:04 What do you want to have a word about?
00:29:06 Well...
00:29:08 Murron, would you like to ride with me
00:29:13 In this? You're out of your mind.
00:29:17 It's good Scottish weather, madam.
00:29:21 - She cannot go with you.
00:29:24 No. No the now, anyway.
00:29:26 - No the now.
00:29:28 - We'll see ye later.
00:29:32 Did you no hear what I said?
00:29:34 Murron.
00:29:39 It's you she takes after.
00:30:11 - How did you know me after so long?
00:30:15 I saw you staring at me
00:30:19 I'm sorry. I suppose I was.
00:30:23 Are you in the habit of riding off
00:30:26 It was the best way to make you leave.
00:30:32 If I ever find the courage to ask ye again,
00:30:36 - It wouldn't help. I can't read.
00:30:39 No.
00:30:43 - That's something we shall have to remedy.
00:30:47 - Aye, if you like.
00:30:50 - In what language?
00:30:55 - That's right. Are you impressed yet?
00:31:06 Do that standing on your head,
00:31:10 - My kilt'll fly up, but I'll try.
00:31:14 The French and the Romans
00:31:17 - You went to Rome?
00:31:21 What was it like?
00:31:27 What does that mean?
00:31:30 Beautiful.
00:31:34 But I belong here.
00:32:09 Murron. Come in now.
00:33:22 Sir, I know it was strange of me
00:33:27 MacClannough's daughter is another matter.
00:33:30 - I've come to fetch you to a meeting.
00:33:34 - The secret kind.
00:33:40 Your father was a fighter...
00:33:43 ...and a patriot.
00:33:47 I know who my father was.
00:33:50 I came home to raise crops
00:33:55 - If I can live in peace, I will.
00:33:58 - You want to stay out of the troubles?
00:34:01 If you can prove it,
00:34:04 Until you prove it, the answer is no.
00:34:06 - No.
00:34:10 - Didn't I just prove it?
00:34:12 - No?
00:34:56 Of course, running a farm is a lot of work.
00:34:59 But that will all change when my sons arrive.
00:35:04 So, you've got children.
00:35:06 Well, not yet. But I was hoping
00:35:10 So you want me to marry you, then?
00:35:11 Well, it's a bit sudden, but all right.
00:35:14 Is that what you call a proposal?
00:35:18 I love you. Always have.
00:35:23 I want to marry you.
00:35:36 Is that a yes?
00:35:39 - Aye, that's a yes.
00:36:23 - We'd best hurry. He'll be waiting.
00:36:27 Where are you going?
00:36:34 - What's that?
00:36:56 Father.
00:37:10 I will love you my whole life.
00:37:13 You and no other.
00:37:20 And I you.
00:37:22 You and no other... for ever.
00:40:53 When will I see ye again? Tonight?
00:40:56 - I can't.
00:40:58 My dad's growing suspicious.
00:41:00 Would that have anything to do with...
00:41:03 When?
00:41:06 When?
00:41:08 - Tonight.
00:41:17 Look lively, Sergeant.
00:41:31 What are you carrying, lassie?
00:41:33 - That looks heavy. Can we help you?
00:41:36 I'm not going to steal it...
00:41:39 Oh. You remind me
00:41:57 Hello, lassie.
00:42:17 Keep quiet, Smythe.
00:42:23 You bitch.
00:42:32 You bitch.
00:42:42 Are you all right?
00:42:48 - Are you all right?
00:43:00 - Can you ride?
00:43:06 Come back here, you bastard!
00:43:10 Ring the alarm. Help!
00:43:14 Meet me at the grove. Ride!
00:43:16 They're getting away.
00:44:01 All right, you bitch.
00:44:26 Murron.
00:44:45 All of you know full well
00:44:51 never to be too strict, too rigid,
00:44:56 And, as a consequence,
00:44:58 have we not learned to live together
00:45:01 in relative peace and harmony?
00:45:04 Huh?
00:45:10 And this... day's lawlessness
00:45:25 You leave me with little choice.
00:45:35 An assault on the King's soldiers
00:45:38 is the same as an assault
00:45:58 Now,
00:46:00 let this scrapper come to me.
00:46:59 There.
00:50:27 Corporal. Some archers on the tower. Now!
00:50:40 Hold still, Father.
00:50:42 You idiot, boy.
00:52:09 - Father, are you all right?
00:53:34 MacCaulich.
00:53:51 Wallace.
00:56:16 What are you waiting for, boy?
00:56:19 Here. You can do it. I'll hold him down.
00:56:24 Here. You can do it. I'll hold him down.
00:56:27 Pour it straight in the wound, boy.
00:56:30 I know it seems like
00:56:36 Hold him. Hold him. Hold him. Now,
00:56:40 let him go.
00:56:46 All right?
00:56:48 That'll wake you up in the morning, boy.
00:56:51 - There's somebody coming.
00:57:00 There's somebody coming.
00:57:03 MacGregors. From the next glen.
00:57:12 We heard about what was happening.
00:57:14 We don't want you amerdans
00:57:20 Go home.
00:57:22 Some of us are in this.
00:57:25 I can't help that now.
00:57:29 Go home.
00:57:31 We'll have no homes left
00:57:36 - And they will.
00:57:41 Welcome.
00:58:12 Patrol returning, my Lord.
00:58:42 So, what news?
00:58:56 I have dispatched 100 soldiers to Lanark.
00:59:00 Were they dressed like this?
00:59:04 Actually, it was more like 50.
00:59:07 Make it quick.
00:59:11 Do you remember me?
00:59:14 - I never did her any harm. It was my right.
00:59:28 I'm William Wallace.
00:59:31 And the rest of you will be spared.
00:59:34 Go back to England.
00:59:37 And tell them there that Scotland's
00:59:44 Tell them Scotland is free.
00:59:52 Burn it.
01:00:28 The Scottish rebels
01:00:32 and murdered the noble Lord.
01:00:35 I heard.
01:00:39 And how would you deal with this... brigand?
01:00:42 Like any common thief. Have the
01:00:50 Leave us.
01:01:02 Wallace has already killed the magistrate
01:01:08 Stand up.
01:01:10 Stand up!
01:01:12 In the morning,
01:01:15 I depart for France to press our rights there.
01:01:18 And I leave you here
01:01:21 Understood? Is it?
01:01:27 One day you will be a king.
01:01:31 At least try to act like one.
01:01:38 Get away from me.
01:01:40 Convene my military council.
01:02:24 There.
01:02:27 After them.
01:02:56 No point resisting.
01:02:59 Where are the rest of you? Where's Wallace?
01:03:15 - Father.
01:03:19 A rebellion has begun.
01:03:28 - Under whom?
01:03:43 You will embrace this rebellion.
01:03:46 Support it from our lands in the North.
01:03:50 I will gain English favour by condemning it
01:03:53 and ordering it opposed
01:03:58 Sit down. Stay awhile.
01:04:08 This Wallace...
01:04:11 He doesn't even have a knighthood.
01:04:16 And he inspires!
01:04:18 And you wish to charge off
01:04:23 - So would I.
01:04:26 It is time... to survive.
01:04:29 You're the 17th Robert Bruce.
01:04:32 The 16 before you passed you land and title
01:04:40 - Call a meeting of the nobles.
01:04:43 Rightly so. They're as rich in English titles
01:04:49 You admire this man... this William Wallace.
01:04:52 Uncompromising men are easier to admire.
01:04:55 He has courage. So does a dog.
01:04:57 But it is exactly the ability to compromise
01:05:03 And understand this:
01:05:05 Edward Longshanks is the most ruthless king
01:05:09 And none of us
01:05:12 and nothing of Scotland will remain
01:05:15 unless we are as ruthless.
01:05:18 Give ear to our nobles.
01:05:22 Knowing their minds
01:05:24 is the key to the throne.
01:05:43 Wait. Look.
01:05:46 This is out and this is left.
01:05:49 Carry on.
01:07:34 You know, eventually,
01:07:38 Heavy cavalry. Armoured horse.
01:07:44 - He'll ride right over us.
01:07:49 How no army had ever stood up
01:07:52 - So what do we do?
01:08:04 Or make spears.
01:08:07 Hundreds of 'em.
01:08:11 - That long?
01:08:14 Some men are longer than others.
01:08:16 Your mother been telling you
01:08:21 Volunteers coming in.
01:08:27 William Wallace.
01:08:31 Stand up, man. I'm not the Pope.
01:08:34 My name is Faudron. My sword is yours.
01:08:37 - I brought you this...
01:08:41 I brought you this.
01:08:43 - My wife made it for you.
01:08:50 Him! That can't be William Wallace.
01:08:53 I'm prettier than this man.
01:08:59 All right, Father. I'll ask him.
01:09:05 If I risk my neck for you,
01:09:07 will I get to kill Englishmen?
01:09:09 Is your father a ghost
01:09:13 To find his equal,
01:09:16 Yes, Father.
01:09:18 The Almighty says,
01:09:21 - Mind your tongue.
01:09:28 Smart enough to get a dagger
01:09:32 That's my friend, Irishman.
01:09:34 And the answer to your question is yes.
01:09:39 Excellent.
01:09:41 Stephen is my name.
01:09:44 I'm the most wanted man on my island.
01:09:46 Except I'm not on my island, of course.
01:09:49 - More's the pity.
01:09:51 - You mean Ireland?
01:09:59 You're a madman.
01:10:08 I've come to the right place, then.
01:11:31 Sure, didn't the Almighty
01:11:36 I didn't like him anyway.
01:11:40 He wasn't right in the head.
01:11:55 William. It's our runners.
01:12:09 The English... are advancing
01:12:13 - Do the nobles rally?
01:12:17 But word has spread. The Highlanders
01:12:21 Aye... In droves of hundreds...
01:12:24 Are you ready for a war?
01:12:43 - What news?
01:12:46 - How many horse, then?
01:12:48 - 300 heavy horse!
01:12:51 Who was in command?
01:12:55 - Aye, he did.
01:12:58 We could still negotiate...
01:13:04 What are they talking about?
01:13:06 I cannot hear, but it doesn't look good.
01:13:09 The nobles will negotiate.
01:13:11 They do a deal... and we go home.
01:13:14 If not... we charge.
01:13:17 300 heavy horse. We've no chance.
01:14:19 So many.
01:14:25 I didn't come here to fight
01:14:28 Then I'd have to work for them.
01:14:30 Nor me.
01:14:33 All right, lads.
01:14:37 Let's go home.
01:14:57 Stop, men!
01:14:59 Do not flee. Wait until we've negotiated.
01:15:56 - William Wallace!
01:16:20 The Almighty says this is a fashionable fight.
01:16:25 - Where is thy salute?
01:16:31 This is our army. To join it, you give homage.
01:16:34 I give homage to Scotland.
01:16:36 And if this is your army,
01:16:40 why does it go?
01:16:42 We didn't come here to fight for them.
01:16:48 Home. The English are too many.
01:17:00 Sons of Scotland! I am William Wallace!
01:17:04 - William Wallace is seven feet tall.
01:17:09 He kills men by the hundred.
01:17:11 And if he were here, he'd consume
01:17:15 and lightning from his arse.
01:17:21 I am William Wallace!
01:17:25 And I see a whole army of my countrymen
01:17:29 here in defiance of tyranny.
01:17:35 You've come to fight as free men
01:17:40 and free men you are!
01:17:45 What will you do without freedom?
01:17:49 Will you fight?
01:17:55 Against that? No.
01:17:57 We will run, and we will live.
01:18:00 Aye. Fight and you may die.
01:18:04 Run, and you'll live.
01:18:07 At least a while.
01:18:12 And dying in your beds,
01:18:16 would you be willing to trade
01:18:19 all the days from this day to that
01:18:22 for one chance, just one chance,
01:18:24 to come back here and tell our enemies
01:18:27 that they may take our lives
01:18:31 but they'll never take our freedom!
01:19:01 They seem quite optimistic.
01:19:04 Confrontation might be
01:19:08 Nonetheless, we should
01:19:11 The King's terms?
01:19:15 My Lord, I think...
01:19:17 All right. Offer them the terms.
01:19:22 - They're coming out. Should we go to them?
01:19:26 Aye.
01:19:33 Fine speech.
01:19:35 Now what do we do?
01:19:39 Just be yourselves.
01:19:41 - Where are you going?
01:19:51 Well, we didn't get dressed up for nothing.
01:19:57 Mornay, Lochlan, Craig.
01:20:04 Here are the King's terms.
01:20:07 Lead this army off the field
01:20:14 and he will give you each estates in Yorkshire
01:20:18 including hereditary title,
01:20:23 - From which you will pay...
01:20:26 Cheltham, this is William Wallace.
01:20:31 From which you will pay the King...
01:20:33 - I said I have an offer.
01:20:37 From his King? Absolutely.
01:20:40 Here are Scotland's terms. Lower your flags
01:20:46 At every home you pass, beg forgiveness
01:20:52 Do that, and your men shall live.
01:20:55 Do it not and every one of you will die today.
01:21:05 You are outmatched.
01:21:09 In two centuries, no army has won without...
01:21:12 I'm not finished!
01:21:15 Before we let you leave
01:21:18 your commander must cross that field,
01:21:23 put his head between his legs
01:21:38 That was less cordial than he was used to.
01:21:40 You be ready and do exactly as I say.
01:21:44 ride round behind our position,
01:21:47 - We must not divide our forces.
01:21:53 They'll think we run away?
01:21:55 Take out their archers and meet in the middle.
01:21:58 Right. Come on.
01:22:24 Insolent bastard.
01:22:29 Archers.
01:22:39 Archers forward.
01:23:38 You bastards.
01:24:15 Loose.
01:24:36 The Lord tells me He can get me out of
01:25:02 Ready... Loose.
01:25:22 Ride.
01:25:27 See? Every Scot with a horse is fleeing.
01:25:30 Our cavalry will ride them down like grass.
01:25:35 Full attack.
01:26:52 Steady...
01:26:55 Hold.
01:26:58 Hold.
01:27:04 Hold.
01:27:10 Hold.
01:27:23 Now!
01:28:11 - Send the infantry.
01:28:14 You lead them.
01:28:29 Charge.
01:30:35 Retreat.
01:31:11 Bastard.
01:31:14 Come on.
01:31:56 All right.
01:32:27 Wallace.
01:32:35 Wallace.
01:33:10 I knight thee
01:33:12 Sir William Wallace.
01:33:18 Sir William, in the name of God
01:33:20 we appoint thee guardian
01:33:24 and thy captains as aides-de-camp.
01:33:27 Stand and be recognised.
01:33:42 Does anyone know his politics?
01:33:43 No, but his weight with the commoners
01:33:47 The Balliols will kiss his arse,
01:33:58 Sir William.
01:34:06 Inasmuch as you and your captains
01:34:10 long known to support the Balliol clan,
01:34:13 may we invite you to continue your support
01:34:19 Damn the Balliol clan.
01:34:24 Gentlemen.
01:34:27 - Gentlemen.
01:34:29 Halt. Wait. Are you prepared
01:34:34 - You won't support the claim.
01:34:37 Oh, no.
01:34:40 - I demand recognition of these documents.
01:34:46 Please, gentlemen.
01:34:51 Quiet. Sir William. Where are you going?
01:34:56 We have beaten the English.
01:34:58 But they'll come back
01:35:03 - What will you do?
01:35:06 and defeat the English on their own ground.
01:35:11 Invade? That's impossible.
01:35:14 Why? Why is that impossible?
01:35:17 You're so concerned with squabbling
01:35:22 that you've missed
01:35:26 There's a difference between us.
01:35:29 You think the people of Scotland exist
01:35:33 I think your position exists
01:35:39 And I go to make sure that they have it.
01:35:54 Wait.
01:35:59 I respect what you said. But remember
01:36:04 It's much to risk.
01:36:06 And the common man that bleeds
01:36:15 No. But from top to bottom,
01:36:20 Its nobles share allegiance with England.
01:36:23 - Its clans war with each other.
01:36:28 If you make enemies on both sides
01:36:32 - We all will. It's a question of how and why.
01:36:37 But we need the nobles.
01:36:39 - We need 'em?
01:36:43 What does that mean, to be noble?
01:36:45 Your title gives you claim to Scotland's
01:36:51 They follow courage.
01:36:53 Our people know you.
01:36:56 And if you would just lead them to freedom...
01:37:03 they'd follow you.
01:37:06 And so would I.
01:37:29 Damn it. My sodomite cousin the Prince
01:37:34 Every town in northern England
01:37:39 He advances.
01:37:40 - To which town?
01:37:44 Bring the provisions inside,
01:37:48 Quickly. Bring in the provisions.
01:38:21 Sir, we can get you out if you leave now.
01:38:24 I will not tell my uncle I've lost him
01:39:08 Come on.
01:39:45 Make way for the King.
01:39:56 It's not your fault.
01:39:59 - Stand up to him.
01:40:40 What news of the North?
01:40:44 Nothing new, Your Majesty.
01:40:48 I heard the word in France where I was
01:40:54 The word, my son, is that
01:41:01 And you have done nothing.
01:41:03 I... have ordered conscription, sir,
01:41:10 Excuse me, sire, but there's
01:41:14 Come.
01:41:24 - Leave us.
01:41:29 - Wallace has sacked York.
01:41:32 Wallace has sacked York.
01:41:49 Sire... thy own nephew.
01:41:54 What beast could do such a thing.
01:41:58 If he can sack York
01:42:03 he can invade Lower England.
01:42:05 We will stop him.
01:42:09 Who is this person who speaks to me
01:42:15 - I have declared Phillip my High Counsellor.
01:42:20 I am skilled in the arts of war
01:42:25 Are you?
01:42:27 Tell me...
01:42:28 What advice would you offer
01:43:05 I shall offer a truce
01:43:09 and buy him off.
01:43:12 But who will go to him? Not I.
01:43:17 If I fell under the sword of that murderer
01:43:20 it might be my head in a basket.
01:43:24 And not... my gentle son.
01:43:27 The mere sight of him would only encourage
01:43:35 So whom do I send?
01:43:42 Whom do I send?
01:45:07 I'm dreaming.
01:45:09 Yes, you are.
01:45:13 And you must wake.
01:45:23 I don't want to wake.
01:45:26 I want to stay here with you.
01:45:30 And I with you.
01:45:33 But you must wake now.
01:45:38 Wake up, William.
01:45:40 Wake up.
01:45:44 William, wake up...
01:45:46 William. A royal entourage comes
01:45:50 flying banners of truce
01:45:52 and the standards of Longshanks himself.
01:46:38 I am the Princess of Wales.
01:46:40 I come as the King's servant
01:46:44 To do what?
01:46:47 To discuss the King's proposals.
01:46:51 Will you speak with a woman?
01:47:14 I hear you have been given the rank of knight.
01:47:17 I have been given nothing.
01:47:19 God makes men what they are.
01:47:22 God made you the sacker of peaceful cities?
01:47:25 The executioner of the King's nephew,
01:47:30 York was the staging point
01:47:35 That cousin hanged innocent Scots, even
01:47:43 Longshanks did far worse
01:48:07 You ask your King... to his face. Ask him.
01:48:13 See if his eyes can convince you of the truth.
01:48:24 Hamilton... Leave us.
01:48:28 - My Lady?
01:48:43 Let us talk plainly.
01:48:45 You invade England.
01:48:47 But you cannot complete the conquest
01:48:53 The King desires peace.
01:48:56 - Longshanks desires peace?
01:49:00 He proposes that you withdraw your attack.
01:49:03 In return he grants you title,
01:49:06 which I am to pay to you personally.
01:49:10 A lordship and titles, gold...
01:49:15 - Peace is made in such ways.
01:49:21 The last time Longshanks spoke of peace,
01:49:25 Many Scottish nobles
01:49:27 were lured by him,
01:49:32 where he had them hanged.
01:49:34 I was very young, but I remember
01:49:43 I understand you have suffered.
01:49:47 I know... about your woman.
01:50:01 She was my wife.
01:50:06 We married in secret because I would
01:50:11 They killed her... to get to me.
01:50:20 I've never spoken of it.
01:50:23 I don't know why I tell you now, except...
01:50:30 I see her strength in you.
01:50:38 One day, you'll be a queen.
01:50:42 And you must open your eyes.
01:50:52 You tell your King
01:50:54 that William Wallace will not be ruled
01:51:32 Ah. My son's loyal wife returns
01:51:38 - So he accepted our bribe?
01:51:43 Then why does he stay?
01:51:45 My scouts tell me that he has not advanced.
01:51:48 He waits for you at York.
01:51:50 He says he will attack no more towns
01:51:56 Did he?
01:51:58 The Welsh bowmen will not be detected
01:52:02 arriving so far around his flank.
01:52:08 The main force of our armies
01:52:11 to the north of Edinburgh.
01:52:13 Conscripts from Ireland
01:52:18 to here.
01:52:19 Welsh bowmen, troops from France,
01:52:23 But they'd take weeks to assemble.
01:52:26 I dispatched them... before I sent your wife.
01:52:35 So our little ruse succeeded. Thank you.
01:52:39 And while this upstart
01:52:43 my forces will have arrived
01:52:48 You spoke with this...
01:52:52 Wallace in private?
01:52:56 Tell me...
01:52:59 What kind of man is he?
01:53:02 A mindless barbarian.
01:53:05 Not a king like you, my Lord.
01:53:10 You may return to your embroidery.
01:53:13 Humbly, my Lord.
01:53:15 You brought back the money?
01:53:21 No. I gave it to ease the suffering
01:53:28 That's what happens
01:53:33 Forgive me, sire.
01:53:35 I thought that generosity might demonstrate
01:53:44 My greatness
01:53:46 will be better demonstrated
01:53:50 and finds his country in ashes.
01:53:57 William.
01:53:59 There's riders approaching.
01:54:08 A personal escort of the Princess.
01:54:11 Aye.
01:54:13 Must have made an impression.
01:54:17 - Aye.
01:54:56 It's true. The English ships
01:54:59 I don't know about the Welsh yet,
01:55:02 - I had to see it myself to believe it.
01:55:08 I wouldn't worry about them.
01:55:12 It's my island.
01:55:14 Hamish, ride ahead to Edinburgh
01:55:18 Right. Come on.
01:55:23 - Your island?
01:55:28 - We'll have to negotiate.
01:55:31 Lords, Craig is right.
01:55:33 This time our only option is to negotiate.
01:55:47 My army has marched for many days.
01:55:49 And we still have preparations to make,
01:55:55 We require every soldier you can summon,
01:56:01 And we need them now.
01:56:04 With such a force arrayed against us,
01:56:08 Other options?
01:56:11 Don't you wish at least
01:56:14 and barter a better deal with Longshanks
01:56:17 - before you run?
01:56:20 - We cannot defeat them.
01:56:22 - Sir William.
01:56:27 We won at Stirling, and still you quibble.
01:56:32 We won at York
01:56:34 If you'll no stand up with us now,
01:56:44 If you are Scotsmen,
01:56:46 I'm ashamed to call myself one.
01:56:49 Please, Sir William, speak with me alone.
01:56:54 I beg you.
01:56:59 You've achieved so much,
01:57:02 it looks like rage, not courage.
01:57:05 It's well beyond rage.
01:57:09 Help me.
01:57:12 In the name of Christ, help yourselves.
01:57:16 Now is our chance. Now.
01:57:18 If we join, we can win. If we win,
01:57:20 we'll have what none of us
01:57:25 A country of our own.
01:57:29 You're the rightful leader
01:57:38 Unite us.
01:57:43 Unite us. Unite the clans.
01:57:53 - All right.
01:58:01 This cannot be the way.
01:58:03 You said yourself
01:58:09 So how does it help us
01:58:15 I gave him my word.
01:58:25 I know it is hard. Being a leader is.
01:58:31 My son...
01:58:33 Son...
01:58:35 Look at me.
01:58:44 I cannot be King.
01:58:46 You and you alone can rule Scotland.
01:58:50 What I tell you, you must do.
01:58:52 Not for me, not for yourself,
01:58:55 but for your country.
01:59:13 Right, lads, make way. Coming through.
01:59:23 Make way, lads.
01:59:30 - The Bruce is not coming, William.
01:59:36 Mornay and Lochlan have come.
01:59:40 So will the Bruce.
01:59:44 Quite a lovely... gathering.
01:59:50 Wouldn't you agree?
01:59:55 - The archers are ready, sire.
01:59:58 My scouts say their archers
02:00:02 Arrows cost money.
02:00:07 And send in the infantry and cavalry.
02:00:09 Infantry.
02:00:13 Cavalry.
02:00:18 Advance.
02:01:44 Ah, good to see ye this morning.
02:01:51 Irish!
02:01:53 Glad to have ye with us. Watch this.
02:04:06 Mornay? Lochlan?
02:04:08 I gave Mornay
02:04:11 and matching estates in England.
02:04:14 Lochlan turned... for much less.
02:04:18 Archers.
02:04:19 I beg your pardon, sire?
02:04:25 Yes.
02:04:26 But we'll hit theirs as well. We have reserves.
02:04:32 Attack.
02:04:34 Archers.
02:05:13 Send in our reinforcements.
02:05:16 Send in the rest.
02:05:28 Bring me Wallace. Alive, if possible.
02:05:32 Dead... just as good.
02:05:36 Send us news of our victory. Shall we retire?
02:07:04 Protect the King.
02:09:10 Get up.
02:09:15 Get up.
02:09:18 - Get him out of here.
02:09:25 Go.
02:10:27 I'm dying.
02:10:32 Let me be.
02:10:40 No.
02:10:42 You're going to live.
02:10:46 I've lived long enough to live free.
02:10:49 Proud...
02:10:51 to see you become the man you are.
02:10:59 I'm a happy man.
02:12:50 I'm the one who's rotting.
02:12:53 But I think your face looks graver than mine.
02:13:01 Son...
02:13:09 We must have alliance
02:13:13 You achieved that.
02:13:16 You saved your family
02:13:19 In time, you will have
02:13:24 Lands.
02:13:27 Titles. Men.
02:13:29 Power. Nothing.
02:13:31 - Nothing?
02:13:35 Men fight for me because if they do not
02:13:40 and I starve their wives and their children.
02:13:43 Those men
02:13:45 who bled the ground red at Falkirk...
02:13:50 They fought for William Wallace, and he
02:13:58 And I took it from him when I betrayed him
02:14:01 and I saw it in his face on the battlefield.
02:14:04 And it's tearing me apart.
02:14:06 Well, all men betray. All lose heart.
02:14:10 I don't want to lose heart.
02:14:16 I want to believe...
02:14:19 as he does.
02:14:27 I will never be on the wrong side again.
02:15:20 No.
02:16:19 Lord Craig, is it true about Mornay?
02:16:21 Aye. Wallace rode into his bedchamber
02:16:26 More of a liability now than ever he was.
02:16:30 And there's no telling who'll be next.
02:16:35 Maybe you.
02:16:39 Maybe me.
02:16:46 It doesn't matter.
02:16:49 - I'm serious, Robert.
02:17:05 Christ. Shit.
02:17:08 Search the place.
02:17:13 Lochlan.
02:17:21 William Wallace killed 50 men.
02:17:24 50 if it was one.
02:17:26 100 men... with his own sword.
02:17:31 Moses through the Red Sea.
02:18:07 His legend grows.
02:18:09 It will be worse than before.
02:18:11 He rallies new volunteers in every Scottish
02:18:17 They're sheep. Mere sheep.
02:18:22 Easily dispersed if we strike the shepherd.
02:18:24 Very well.
02:18:28 Pick a flock of your finest assassins
02:18:32 My Lord, Wallace is renowned
02:18:40 If what Lord Hamilton tells me is correct
02:18:44 he warmed to our future Queen
02:18:49 So we'll dispatch her
02:18:53 My Lord,
02:18:56 or her life be put in jeopardy.
02:18:58 My son would be most distressed by that.
02:19:03 But in truth if she were to be killed,
02:19:05 we would soon find the King of France
02:19:13 You see...
02:19:15 As King, you must find
02:19:47 It's William Wallace, sure.
02:19:50 And he's given up his sword. Be ready.
02:21:34 My Lady.
02:21:39 I received your message.
02:21:54 This is... the second time
02:22:01 Why?
02:22:02 There will be a new shipment
02:22:06 Foods and weapons. They will...
02:22:08 No, stop.
02:22:12 Why do you help me?
02:22:20 Why do you help me?
02:22:23 Because of the way
02:24:19 Just when we thought all hope was lost,
02:24:21 our noble saviours have arrived.
02:24:27 Off with their hoods.
02:24:33 Sir William, we come to seek a meeting.
02:24:36 Well, what's the point?
02:24:40 - You've all sworn loyalty to Longshanks.
02:24:44 Every man of us is ready
02:24:47 So let the council swear publicly.
02:24:50 We cannot.
02:24:53 Others think you'll pay them Mornay's wages.
02:24:58 Meet us two days from now. Pledge us
02:25:02 - Scotland will be one.
02:25:04 - You mean us and you.
02:25:08 I mean this.
02:25:12 It's the pledge of Robert the Bruce.
02:25:25 You do know it's a trap. Tell him.
02:25:27 If the Bruce wanted to kill you,
02:25:30 Aye.
02:25:31 I know. I saw.
02:25:33 All right, leaving him aside,
02:25:37 Scheming bastards who couldn't agree on
02:25:42 Look at us.
02:25:45 We've got to try. We can't do this alone.
02:25:49 Joining the nobles is our only hope.
02:25:54 What?
02:25:56 Nothing.
02:25:59 - I don't want to be a martyr.
02:26:02 I want to live.
02:26:04 I want a home, and children. And peace.
02:26:07 - Do ye?
02:26:09 I've asked God for those things.
02:26:14 - It's just a dream, William.
02:26:18 Well, then,
02:26:23 We've lived that dream.
02:26:25 Your dream isn't about freedom.
02:26:28 You're doing this to be a hero
02:26:31 I don't think she sees me. I know she does.
02:26:35 And your father sees you, too.
02:26:47 Jesus.
02:26:56 Shall I come with you?
02:26:59 No. I'll go alone.
02:27:04 - I'll see you after.
02:27:12 Sooner rather than later, I hope.
02:27:21 - He won't come.
02:27:24 I know he will.
02:27:40 My Lord. He approaches.
02:28:26 No!
02:28:33 Stay out of it, Robert.
02:28:36 Get away.
02:28:42 The Bruce is not to be harmed,
02:28:53 Father!
02:29:00 You rotting bastard!
02:29:04 Why?
02:29:10 Longshanks required Wallace.
02:29:14 So did our nobles.
02:29:16 That was the price of your crown.
02:29:19 Die.
02:29:22 I want you to die.
02:29:24 Soon enough I'll be dead.
02:29:26 - And you'll be King.
02:29:31 You're not a man.
02:29:34 And you're not my father.
02:29:40 You're my son
02:29:42 and you have always known my mind.
02:29:47 - You deceived me.
02:29:51 In your heart, you always knew
02:29:58 At last, you know what it means to hate.
02:30:06 Now you're ready to be a king.
02:30:10 My hate...
02:30:12 will die with you.
02:30:19 William Wallace,
02:30:25 - Against whom?
02:30:29 Have you anything to say?
02:30:32 Never in my whole life
02:30:36 did I swear allegiance to him.
02:30:39 It matters not. He is your King.
02:30:45 Confess and you may receive a quick death.
02:30:49 Deny and you must be purified by pain.
02:30:52 Do you confess?
02:30:56 Do you confess?
02:31:04 Then on the morrow
02:31:20 - Your Highness.
02:31:22 - The King ordered...
02:31:26 Who do you think will rule this kingdom?
02:31:29 Now open this door.
02:31:33 Your Majesty.
02:31:40 Come on, filth. Up on your feet.
02:31:42 Stop it. Leave me.
02:31:47 I said leave me.
02:32:02 My Lady.
02:32:04 Sir...
02:32:07 I come to beg you...
02:32:10 to confess all and swear allegiance
02:32:16 Will he show mercy to my country?
02:32:19 Mercy is to die quickly,
02:32:22 perhaps even live in the Tower.
02:32:24 In time, who knows what can happen?
02:32:28 If you can only live...
02:32:35 If I swear to him...
02:32:37 then all that I am is dead already.
02:32:50 You will die. It will be awful.
02:32:52 Every man dies.
02:32:57 Not every man really lives.
02:33:06 Drink this.
02:33:08 It will dull your pain.
02:33:11 No. It will numb my wits.
02:33:13 And I must have them all.
02:33:16 For if I'm senseless or if I wail
02:33:19 then Longshanks will have broken me.
02:33:22 I can't bear the thought of your torture.
02:33:25 Take it.
02:33:31 All right.
02:34:20 I have come
02:34:22 to beg for the life of William Wallace.
02:34:27 You're quite taken with him, aren't you?
02:34:30 I respect him.
02:34:33 At worst, he was a worthy enemy.
02:34:35 Show mercy, O thou great King,
02:34:49 Even now
02:34:52 you are incapable of mercy.
02:35:01 And you...
02:35:07 To you, that word is as unfamiliar as love.
02:35:11 Before he lost his powers of speech
02:35:13 he told me his one comfort was that
02:35:37 You see?
02:35:40 Death comes to us all.
02:35:52 But before it comes to you,
02:35:55 know this:
02:35:57 Your blood dies with you.
02:36:02 A child who is not of your line
02:36:08 Your son will not sit long on the throne,
02:36:51 I'm so afraid.
02:37:00 Give me the strength...
02:37:03 to die well.
02:37:29 Here he comes.
02:38:59 Now behold the awful price of treason.
02:39:08 Or fall to your knees now,
02:39:13 declare yourself the King's loyal subject
02:39:17 and beg his mercy
02:39:26 and you shall have it.
02:39:39 Rope.
02:39:53 Raise him.
02:40:03 Stretch him.
02:40:06 That's it.
02:40:09 Stretch him.
02:40:47 Pleasant, yes?
02:40:52 Rise to your knees.
02:40:54 Kiss the royal emblem on my cloak
02:40:57 and you will feel no more.
02:41:41 Rack him.
02:42:37 Enough?
02:43:31 It can all end...
02:43:33 right now.
02:43:36 Peace.
02:43:38 Bliss.
02:43:40 Just say it.
02:43:43 Cry out...
02:43:45 "Mercy."
02:43:56 Mercy.
02:43:57 Mercy.
02:44:05 Cry out.
02:44:13 Just say it. "Mercy."
02:44:40 - Mercy, William. Mercy.
02:44:50 The prisoner wishes to say a word.
02:45:14 Freedom!
02:47:09 After the beheading,
02:47:12 William Wallace's body was torn to pieces.
02:47:18 His head was set on London Bridge.
02:47:22 His arms and legs
02:47:25 sent to the four corners of Britain
02:47:28 as a warning.
02:47:30 It did not have the effect
02:47:36 And I, Robert the Bruce,
02:47:39 rode out to pay homage
02:47:44 and accept his endorsement of my crown.
02:47:48 I hope you've washed your arse this morning.
02:47:51 It's about to be kissed by a king.
02:48:23 Come. Let's get it over with.
02:48:38 Stop.
02:48:57 You have bled with Wallace!
02:49:05 Now bleed with me.
02:49:47 Wallace!
02:50:14 In the year of our Lord 1314,
02:50:18 patriots of Scotland,
02:50:22 charged the fields of Bannockburn.
02:50:26 They fought like warrior poets.
02:50:28 They fought like Scotsmen
02:50:32 and won their freedom.
