Silly Wizard - "Wha'll be King but Cherlie?"

Charles Edward Stuart lived from 31 December 1720 to 31 January 1788. He is better remembered as "Bonnie Prince Charlie" or "The Young Pretender". In a life of 67 years he spent just 14 months in Scotland and England in the fruitless pursuit of his family's claim to the crowns of England, Scotland and Ireland. But during that brief visit he set in train a series of events that were to destroy the traditional Highland way of life forever. Soundtrack: "Wha'll be King but Cherlie?" - Silly Wizard ("A Glint of Silver"). Video excerpts: "Battlefield Britain" and "Culloden".
