Culloden 15 December 1964

Culloden was broadcast on 15 December 1964. The film by Peter Watkins was a remarkable achievement, boldly combining documentary filming techniques and historical re-enactments to vivid effect. It depicted the 1746 battle and its bloody aftermath, when the English army, commanded by the Duke of Cumberland, defeated the forces of Charles Edward Stuart – Bonnie Prince Charlie.
