    Nice video Helena. It also showcases how talented you are. I would think that battlefield videos are such a different category from sexology videos at every level ( setting, lighting, continuation ,etc etc ) and your shifting from one to the other seems very seamless, congratulations!
    Also, I wonder if you have visited a Commonwealth War Grave Cemetary in, say, Gallipoli or France yet. If not, I think the impact of all those men lying in rest might have an even bigger impact on you. Culloden is like every other battlefield visited a long time after the battle. These places are often so ordinary one wonders how anyone could fight, let alone die there. Buit that is history, and unfortunately it always repeats. But I agree- having visited it, Culloden is like Glencoe- a dark feeling place.

    It's a very moving place. I am from Clan Robertson. The clan is famous for its association with the Battle of Culloden, where the Robertson's fought on the side of the Jacobite's, and also for their role in the Highland Uprisings, which resulted in the suppression of the clan and the imposition of severe restrictions on its members back in the eighteenth century. ^^

    This reminded me when i went to the cemetery and museum of the fallen heroes in world war 1 and 2 in France. It described how each soldier died in the war or how they were sabotaged and killed. History can bring a tear 😢 to your eye. I can see how this in Scotland can bring us tears too. Many moons ago on this history is painful. Tragedies and occurrences that we never knew now take place in our hearts. It can be heartbreaking. Thanks for sharing. 😢

    This battle was not between the English and Scots, it was over who ruled Britain, the Hanoverian or the Stuarts; personally I think the Stuarts had more of a claim, however the better army won. Many Scots fought for the Hanover King and many English fought for the Jacobites.

    I suppose I'd say, in terms of disliking the english. I am English, but my ancestors on these Islands are Scotish, and further back they were Nords who settled far in the north. This was an internal thing, northern-western europeans were in a way a single peoples that were made up of many peoples. To dig into the indigenous world of Britain and general western-northern europe I imagine you know well enough yourself, it's endlessly layered and connected in so many ways.

    Haunting, and deeply moving. While the Jacobite's did lose the battle, they may have won the war. About 40 years later, a substancial number of Highlanders had already begun to immigrate to American Shores. And no doubt as Americans, they fought for the freedom of a new independent nation. Just saying the old adage of keeping ones enemies close, was not observed here.

Unfortunately, like many people including many Brits, you don't fully understand the history behind the battle of Culloden. If you had read the information in the exhibition and listened to the guide in your video you would have known that this battle was NOT about Scots fighting against British rule, it was about who was on the British throne. The government army was not English it was British and included many Scots. The Jacobites wanted to overthrow the Hanovarian King and restore the Stuart dynasty by making Bonnie Prince Charlie the King of Great Britain.

      Nobody can change history. And it's normal and human to go through different emotions. I'm not a robot. Sometimes I'm sad and that's ok.

    Helena thank you for visiting my country. Some special people like you can feel the sadness in walking the Battle field were so many young men died for their country.

    My clann fought there and there's a mass grave for them. It gives me the creeps being there. After Culloden a social and cultural genocide began, which is mildly going on today. The illegality of the Gaelic language, the ridicule of the ability of the Scottish people, the clearances, Highland and Lowland, the divide and rule of sectarianism the destruction of Scottish troops in wars. Free Scotland, back in the EU, Alba gu brath agus Saor Ucran
