00:00In the 13th century, Scotland would become the focus of the Christian world.
00:13Its throne was without an heir, its people at the brink of civil war.
00:17It was a time when the nation's heroes were forged, and one would rise to become forever
00:22remembered as the greatest King of Scots.
00:27The young Robert Bruce was a man with a bright future, heir to titles and lands in both Scotland
00:33and England.
00:34In a time of chivalry, he was fast gaining a reputation as one of the finest knights
00:38in Christendom.
00:39And, if his family's claim was recognised, he was soon to be heir to a kingdom.
00:45This is the story of Scottish nobleman Robert Bruce and his ruthless campaign for the Scottish
00:49crown.
00:50In a time of bloody war, he would leave a legacy both of a heroic king and a traitorous
00:55killer, and prove that history is made by those with the will to succeed, at any cost.
