Scottish history, culture and folklore are so closely intertwined, it is almost impossible to discern one from the other. Generation after generation have passed on the stories, shared their tales and recounted history and folklore in the same breath.

It is from these magnificent tales that we took our inspiration for this truly unforgettable series and we hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed creating them for you.
