Wonderful costuming and captivating scenes depicting life and "filth" in an early Georgian era. In fact, it's the unapologetic depiction of the truly unsanitary living conditions and habits of our forebares that gives the story much of its appeal. It's also a savory depiction of the hostilities between England and Scotland before there was a United Kingdom or a Great Britain for devotees of colonial Britain's tyrannical treatment of their vanquished captives.
