An ancestor mentioned on a TV program

Thanks to my husband for finding this one for me!

A television program called Line of Fire has an episode named The Battle of Bannockburn. In a brief few seconds we see the story of one of our Kirkpatrick ancestors’ most famous hours.

Click here to view. Watch from about the 7:25 mark to see Professor Ted Gowan of the University of Glasgow describing the incident. (Sorry I could not embed this video as I usually like to do.)

Note that Professor Gowan calls our guy Kilpatrick. That is a variation of the name and has been interchangeable for hundreds of years.
