Episode Overview
The Jacobite conflict is frequently seen merely as a family dispute that ended in Bonnie Prince Charlie's heartbreaking loss at Culloden in 1745. However, Dr. Clare Jackson uncovers how the Jacobite movement unfolded within a broader European context, stirring a web of international intrigue and secret schemes. She explains the reasons behind the willingness of many law-abiding Scots and English to back the Catholic Stuarts, while highlighting the precarious position of the Protestant Hanoverian regime as George I and II fought to establish their dominance over often resistant and anti-European populations.
