Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:08,875 --> 00:00:12,944
What if I told you that
it's possible to go back in time.
2
00:00:12,947 --> 00:00:14,980
To a remote, mystic place.
3
00:00:15,049 --> 00:00:17,315
That is somehow familiar?
4
00:00:17,384 --> 00:00:18,817
This is it.
5
00:00:18,885 --> 00:00:20,952
This is a personal journey.
6
00:00:21,021 --> 00:00:22,988
That transcends
distance and time.
7
00:00:23,057 --> 00:00:24,389
I trek to scotland.
8
00:00:24,458 --> 00:00:27,125
With my good friend
melissa mcbride...
9
00:00:27,128 --> 00:00:29,361
I'm tracing my family roots.
10
00:00:29,429 --> 00:00:31,330
In an introspective quest
to uncover.
11
00:00:31,398 --> 00:00:33,498
A family history of long ago.
12
00:00:33,567 --> 00:00:34,867
This is my dream come true.
13
00:00:34,935 --> 00:00:36,969
Did you feel any vibrations?
14
00:00:37,037 --> 00:00:39,772
Norman, this is so much more
than I ever expected.
15
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:41,940
This is it.
16
00:00:43,944 --> 00:00:47,646
All right, hit it!
17
00:00:47,714 --> 00:00:49,715
Here we go! Yeah, baby!
18
00:00:51,718 --> 00:00:54,319
That was crazy!
19
00:01:27,054 --> 00:01:31,289
This is destined to be
a different kind of ride,
20
00:01:31,358 --> 00:01:34,359
And not just because
I'm behind the wheel of a car.
21
00:01:34,427 --> 00:01:36,695
More on that later.
22
00:01:36,763 --> 00:01:38,897
In scotland,
there's a tale of mankind.
23
00:01:38,965 --> 00:01:41,200
That spans thousands of years.
24
00:01:41,268 --> 00:01:43,401
It's evident driving
through edinburgh.
25
00:01:43,470 --> 00:01:46,271
There's an assimilation
of old world and new.
26
00:01:46,273 --> 00:01:49,307
Here is a history
long intertwined with the uk.
27
00:01:49,376 --> 00:01:50,943
Of a people's fight for freedom.
28
00:01:51,011 --> 00:01:54,813
At the ballot box
and on the battlefield.
29
00:01:54,815 --> 00:01:57,115
It's my first time
exploring scotland,
30
00:01:57,118 --> 00:02:01,620
And, yeah, the first time
I've left my bike behind.
31
00:02:01,688 --> 00:02:03,622
But right now, I'm meeting up
with a dear friend.
32
00:02:03,690 --> 00:02:06,225
For what I hope will be
a life-changing journey.
33
00:02:09,462 --> 00:02:11,563
Hey. Hello.
34
00:02:11,631 --> 00:02:12,564
Hi, muffin.
35
00:02:12,566 --> 00:02:14,299
Hi. Hey.
36
00:02:14,301 --> 00:02:15,634
Isn't this fun?
37
00:02:15,702 --> 00:02:17,002
Look at this place.
What a cool spot.
38
00:02:17,004 --> 00:02:20,505
Let's get some tea
while we're here.
39
00:02:20,508 --> 00:02:22,574
No one's indispensable
on "the walking dead,".
40
00:02:22,576 --> 00:02:25,777
But melissa mcbride
might just be the exception.
41
00:02:25,846 --> 00:02:27,913
For eight seasons,
her portrayal of carol.
42
00:02:27,915 --> 00:02:30,115
Has won over fans
and critics alike,
43
00:02:30,184 --> 00:02:32,918
And the two of us have been
tight ever since the beginning.
44
00:02:32,986 --> 00:02:34,986
Cheers.
Good to see you, sweetheart.
45
00:02:34,989 --> 00:02:36,032
This is gonna be a fun ride.
46
00:02:36,056 --> 00:02:36,989
It's gonna be great.
47
00:02:37,057 --> 00:02:38,057
Different.
48
00:02:38,091 --> 00:02:40,458
Different's good. Yeah.
49
00:02:40,527 --> 00:02:42,928
Yeah, we...
We came up with this idea.
50
00:02:42,996 --> 00:02:44,636
While we were filming
"the walking dead,".
51
00:02:44,665 --> 00:02:46,031
Sitting in that field.
52
00:02:46,099 --> 00:02:47,643
I was like, "you should
be on the show."
53
00:02:47,667 --> 00:02:49,134
You should get your license."
you're like, "okay."
54
00:02:49,136 --> 00:02:50,936
And I worked really hard
to get my motorcycle license.
55
00:02:50,938 --> 00:02:53,104
And now here we are,
except the weather's dreary.
56
00:02:53,173 --> 00:02:54,173
Yeah.
57
00:02:54,241 --> 00:02:56,074
And I'm... I'm a new rider.
58
00:02:56,143 --> 00:02:58,143
I'm not... I don't feel
that comfortable.
59
00:02:58,212 --> 00:03:00,612
Just yet for these conditions, so...
Yeah, well, I'm... I...
60
00:03:00,614 --> 00:03:02,974
I don't think anybody feels
comfortable in these conditions,
61
00:03:03,016 --> 00:03:04,327
So it's better...
We have a car now, so...
62
00:03:04,351 --> 00:03:05,751
I think we have
a good alternative.
63
00:03:05,819 --> 00:03:07,552
Yeah.
64
00:03:07,621 --> 00:03:10,355
I remember the first scene
I ever did with you on the show.
65
00:03:10,357 --> 00:03:11,924
Was handing you that pickaxe,
66
00:03:11,992 --> 00:03:13,458
And I kept get...
First time I gave it to you,
67
00:03:13,460 --> 00:03:15,827
It had a little bit of blood
and you grabbed it.
68
00:03:15,896 --> 00:03:17,473
And then I kept going,
"mark, put more blood on it."
69
00:03:17,497 --> 00:03:19,965
Yanked it out of my hand.
You were so antagonistic.
70
00:03:19,967 --> 00:03:22,868
And I, I liked... it was like...
you were just, like, chiding me...
71
00:03:22,936 --> 00:03:24,347
Yeah, I was... And
shoving it up in my face.
72
00:03:24,371 --> 00:03:25,837
I was pushing it.
I was pushing it.
73
00:03:25,906 --> 00:03:27,472
But it's like, you know,
74
00:03:27,474 --> 00:03:29,018
In grade school, when
you kind of like someone,
75
00:03:29,042 --> 00:03:30,375
You're like...
You kind of, like, poke them.
76
00:03:30,377 --> 00:03:31,554
Well, that's when I thought,
"you know what?
77
00:03:31,578 --> 00:03:33,311
I'm gonna like that guy."
78
00:03:33,314 --> 00:03:35,814
Yeah, yeah, we hit it off
right from the beginning.
79
00:03:35,882 --> 00:03:38,483
"What an"
"what a... what a jerk.
80
00:03:38,551 --> 00:03:39,695
I like that guy." "I like him."
81
00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:41,319
yeah.
82
00:03:41,322 --> 00:03:43,154
You been here before?
You been to scotland?
83
00:03:43,223 --> 00:03:45,034
I've never been here before.
I haven't, either.
84
00:03:45,058 --> 00:03:46,591
I'm j... I feel like I'm just, -
85
00:03:46,660 --> 00:03:48,438
Well, I know that I have
roots here, you know?
86
00:03:48,462 --> 00:03:51,863
I feel like... I don't know...
I have this genetic memory...
87
00:03:51,931 --> 00:03:53,999
Yeah... That's somehow
being passed down.
88
00:03:54,067 --> 00:03:55,333
Through the generations.
89
00:03:55,336 --> 00:03:57,068
You get a little piece
of memory, you know?
90
00:03:57,137 --> 00:03:58,570
I was looking up my ancestry,
91
00:03:58,639 --> 00:04:01,740
And I found that... that I have
relatives in aberdeen.
92
00:04:01,742 --> 00:04:03,708
Is mcbride a scottish name?
93
00:04:03,711 --> 00:04:08,446
It's my father's mother side,
and she's a campbell. Campbell?
94
00:04:08,449 --> 00:04:11,349
When you get a hit, it's like,
"this is so exciting."
95
00:04:11,352 --> 00:04:13,485
It's like uncovering a mystery.
96
00:04:13,553 --> 00:04:15,631
Yeah, I feel like a detective. I've
never done my... my family tree,
97
00:04:15,655 --> 00:04:17,022
Not so much. You should.
98
00:04:17,024 --> 00:04:18,134
I'm kind of... you know,
it's like I kind of.
99
00:04:18,158 --> 00:04:19,724
Don't know if I wanna know.
100
00:04:19,793 --> 00:04:21,893
I know there's a lot of, like,
criminal activity,
101
00:04:21,962 --> 00:04:23,495
And, like, I know,
like, I had a...
102
00:04:23,563 --> 00:04:25,074
Like, a great-great-grandfather
that was, like,
103
00:04:25,098 --> 00:04:26,698
Hung as a horse thief.
104
00:04:26,700 --> 00:04:28,934
And, like... like, crazy,
crazy stories like that.
105
00:04:29,002 --> 00:04:30,702
But this is all about you.
106
00:04:30,771 --> 00:04:32,437
I wanna... we're, we're gonna
find your stuff right now.
107
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:34,539
It's gonna be great. I just...
108
00:04:34,607 --> 00:04:36,107
I want that to be our mission.
109
00:04:36,176 --> 00:04:38,376
Yeah, that'll be our mission.
Yeah, yeah.
110
00:04:38,445 --> 00:04:40,578
Let's get out of here.
Let's go do stuff.
111
00:04:43,650 --> 00:04:45,083
You wanna see our ride? Yes.
112
00:04:45,085 --> 00:04:47,752
Voilà. And it'll be much warmer.
113
00:04:47,821 --> 00:04:49,220
Yeah.
114
00:04:49,223 --> 00:04:51,089
It's a lot of fun. Let's go.
115
00:04:51,157 --> 00:04:53,091
We can do this.
116
00:04:53,159 --> 00:04:56,728
All right, this is gonna
be a good trip. Aah!
117
00:05:00,633 --> 00:05:02,400
If you're gonna come over,
come to edinburgh.
118
00:05:02,469 --> 00:05:04,135
There's so much going on.
119
00:05:04,138 --> 00:05:06,305
Edinburgh's a very
historic city.
120
00:05:06,373 --> 00:05:08,406
It's got a very rich,
long history.
121
00:05:08,475 --> 00:05:11,509
Wow. Look at that, like,
castle-y ruin right there.
122
00:05:11,578 --> 00:05:13,244
Edinburgh's very open
to the world.
123
00:05:13,313 --> 00:05:14,679
And... and, it's a great city,
124
00:05:14,748 --> 00:05:18,483
And I... and I wouldn't live
anywhere else.
125
00:05:18,485 --> 00:05:20,985
It really is magical here.
126
00:05:21,054 --> 00:05:23,588
It is. It's breathtaking.
My god.
127
00:05:23,590 --> 00:05:25,167
Over the next three days,
we're on a mission to learn.
128
00:05:25,191 --> 00:05:27,092
About melissa's family history.
129
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:28,337
While seeking out
scottish culture.
130
00:05:28,361 --> 00:05:30,495
And tradition along the way.
131
00:05:30,497 --> 00:05:32,297
As we leave edinburgh behind,
132
00:05:32,365 --> 00:05:35,433
We'll learn about a curious
national pastime in kinross.
133
00:05:35,436 --> 00:05:38,870
Before heading up to perth
to visit a native breed of dogs.
134
00:05:38,938 --> 00:05:40,605
Perched on the edge
of the north sea,
135
00:05:40,673 --> 00:05:42,307
We'll reach aberdeen,
136
00:05:42,375 --> 00:05:44,520
Which is where we hope
to discover more about the life.
137
00:05:44,544 --> 00:05:46,644
Of melissa's
great-great-grandfather,
138
00:05:46,647 --> 00:05:47,979
Alexander campbell.
139
00:05:47,981 --> 00:05:49,325
I can't...
I can't believe I'm here.
140
00:05:49,349 --> 00:05:50,515
Edinburgh, brah. Brah.
141
00:05:50,517 --> 00:05:52,250
Edin-brah.
142
00:05:55,622 --> 00:05:57,456
It's got to be weird
driving on the left.
143
00:05:57,524 --> 00:05:58,990
There we go.
144
00:05:59,058 --> 00:06:01,025
The skyline's just
gorgeous here just, like,
145
00:06:01,094 --> 00:06:03,362
Everywhere you turn,
everywhere you look.
146
00:06:04,931 --> 00:06:06,364
Did I hit something? Yes!
147
00:06:06,367 --> 00:06:07,532
What was it? The curb.
148
00:06:09,536 --> 00:06:10,735
Good. Whoa.
149
00:06:10,804 --> 00:06:12,470
This is where... aw.
150
00:06:12,539 --> 00:06:14,139
This is where I lose a mirror.
151
00:06:14,207 --> 00:06:15,407
Ready? No!
152
00:06:15,475 --> 00:06:16,908
Clip, clip.
Whoa, that was close.
153
00:06:16,976 --> 00:06:19,644
God. Wow. That was really close.
154
00:06:19,712 --> 00:06:22,147
That was pretty close.
155
00:06:22,149 --> 00:06:25,417
Before we head out of town,
we're making a quick stop.
156
00:06:25,485 --> 00:06:27,018
Do you know the story
of the campbells?
157
00:06:27,086 --> 00:06:29,254
No, and that's something
that I wanna find out...
158
00:06:29,322 --> 00:06:30,689
How they may have lived,
159
00:06:30,757 --> 00:06:32,657
What a day in the life
might've been like.
160
00:06:32,725 --> 00:06:35,093
Since each clan claims
their own pattern,
161
00:06:35,095 --> 00:06:38,697
We're here to find the colors
of melissa's campbell ancestors.
162
00:06:38,765 --> 00:06:40,832
Tartan weaving mill.
163
00:06:40,834 --> 00:06:44,035
The scottish traditional dress
for a man is the kilt.
164
00:06:44,103 --> 00:06:47,172
There is that kind of
animalistic thing.
165
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,340
About just wearing a...
166
00:06:49,409 --> 00:06:51,743
A whole suede of tartan
around you.
167
00:06:51,811 --> 00:06:54,346
Here we go.
This is definitely the spot.
168
00:06:54,414 --> 00:06:56,181
This is, like, the real deal.
169
00:06:56,249 --> 00:06:58,016
And, of course, a true scot.
170
00:06:58,084 --> 00:07:01,219
Doesn't wear anything
under his kilt.
171
00:07:01,221 --> 00:07:02,687
It gets a bit drafty.
172
00:07:02,755 --> 00:07:04,422
- Hi.
- Hey, guys. How you doing?
173
00:07:04,425 --> 00:07:05,501
Tristan. Nice to see ya. Nice
to meet you, tristan, yeah.
174
00:07:05,525 --> 00:07:07,525
- Hi there.
- Hi. Melissa.
175
00:07:07,594 --> 00:07:10,239
Melissa. Tristan. We've got lots of
tartans, lots of different clans.
176
00:07:10,263 --> 00:07:12,197
What about campbell?
What colors would campbell be?
177
00:07:12,199 --> 00:07:14,866
Campbell? Well, yeah, campbell's
one of the, most famous clans.
178
00:07:14,935 --> 00:07:16,267
Th... that we have in scotland,
179
00:07:16,336 --> 00:07:18,102
And it's very much
a blue and a green.
180
00:07:20,773 --> 00:07:22,273
There we go. Blue and the green.
181
00:07:22,342 --> 00:07:25,577
So that's the colors
for clan campbell,
182
00:07:25,645 --> 00:07:27,812
And that's the official crest
of the clan campbell.
183
00:07:27,815 --> 00:07:29,992
It's a boar. It's a boar's head.
A boar. How cool is that?
184
00:07:30,016 --> 00:07:32,050
And, this is in gaelic.
185
00:07:32,118 --> 00:07:37,222
It's "ne obliviscaris," and that
means, "forget not."
186
00:07:37,290 --> 00:07:39,424
Ne obliviscaris. Yes.
187
00:07:39,493 --> 00:07:41,370
I think you spoke that pretty well.
Pretty well, yeah. You did a good job.
188
00:07:41,394 --> 00:07:43,294
I wish I had a scottish name.
189
00:07:43,297 --> 00:07:44,429
What's your surname?
190
00:07:44,497 --> 00:07:46,231
Reedus. So reedus.
191
00:07:46,299 --> 00:07:49,901
So the name "reed" is... is
quite a popular name over here,
192
00:07:49,969 --> 00:07:51,803
And it's linked
to the robertson clan.
193
00:07:51,805 --> 00:07:54,572
What's the robertson tartan?
I ca-can show you.
194
00:07:54,641 --> 00:07:57,342
I would've never put "reed"
and "robertson" together.
195
00:07:57,410 --> 00:07:59,911
There's a red robertson, which
is that one there. Wow.
196
00:07:59,979 --> 00:08:03,315
So that's the... the most famous
dress robertson.
197
00:08:03,383 --> 00:08:04,916
Wow. That one there.
198
00:08:06,653 --> 00:08:09,354
You look good.
I'm startin' to feel it.
199
00:08:14,227 --> 00:08:15,727
So this is where it all begins.
200
00:08:15,795 --> 00:08:18,296
How long have these machines
been in production?
201
00:08:18,298 --> 00:08:21,432
Well, these machines are
approximately 100 years old.
202
00:08:23,436 --> 00:08:26,204
And then the material
comes off the... off the loom.
203
00:08:26,206 --> 00:08:27,539
So the material's woven.
204
00:08:27,607 --> 00:08:28,840
We make it into kilts,
205
00:08:28,908 --> 00:08:30,809
And the kilts
are made here, as well.
206
00:08:36,249 --> 00:08:37,682
- Hi, guys.
- Hi.
207
00:08:37,750 --> 00:08:39,529
- Elaine, dora, and helen.
- Hi. How's it going?
208
00:08:39,553 --> 00:08:41,353
So I guess the ladies
are making the kilts.
209
00:08:41,421 --> 00:08:44,022
Is it just nonstop kilt,
kilt, kilt, kilt?
210
00:08:44,024 --> 00:08:45,823
I've made over 20,000 kilts?
211
00:08:45,826 --> 00:08:47,025
Have you really? Wow.
212
00:08:47,093 --> 00:08:49,294
Do you just dream about kilts?
213
00:08:49,362 --> 00:08:53,098
After I had my first child, um,
I couldn't sleep after that,
214
00:08:53,166 --> 00:08:56,634
So I would just sew
and sew and sew.
215
00:08:56,703 --> 00:08:59,470
I could sew for two or three
days without any sleep.
216
00:08:59,539 --> 00:09:01,172
That first child
sold a lot of kilts.
217
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,608
Definitely.
218
00:09:03,677 --> 00:09:05,517
Nice to meet you ladies.
Yeah, it's a pleasure.
219
00:09:05,545 --> 00:09:06,711
Yeah. Very nice to meet you.
220
00:09:06,780 --> 00:09:08,213
Pleasure.
221
00:09:08,281 --> 00:09:10,048
So, this is our
little bagpipe room.
222
00:09:10,050 --> 00:09:11,050
This is ewan.
223
00:09:11,117 --> 00:09:12,216
- Hi.
- Hello. Hi.
224
00:09:12,285 --> 00:09:13,652
This is melissa. Hello. Welcome.
225
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,887
Nice to meet you. How are you?
Norman.
226
00:09:15,955 --> 00:09:17,232
Nice to meet you, sir. It's a pleasure,
yeah. Hi, there. Nice to see ya.
227
00:09:17,256 --> 00:09:18,690
What's the history
of the bagpipe?
228
00:09:18,692 --> 00:09:20,058
Where did that happen?
229
00:09:20,060 --> 00:09:22,093
It's famous in scotland, right?
Yeah.
230
00:09:22,095 --> 00:09:24,329
But the first pipe
ever discovered is, basically,
231
00:09:24,397 --> 00:09:25,930
Iraq... old babylonia.
232
00:09:25,933 --> 00:09:28,466
Was it ever, like,
the stomach of an animal,
233
00:09:28,535 --> 00:09:29,934
Or did I make that up?
234
00:09:30,003 --> 00:09:31,369
- You did make that up.
- Okay.
235
00:09:31,437 --> 00:09:32,537
But it's not just you
that made that up.
236
00:09:32,539 --> 00:09:33,671
Everybody makes that up.
237
00:09:33,740 --> 00:09:34,839
Can we hear a little bit?
238
00:09:34,907 --> 00:09:36,174
You certainly can.
239
00:09:36,242 --> 00:09:37,542
I think that you should do it.
240
00:09:37,544 --> 00:09:41,146
This is your scottish-heritage
exploration.
241
00:09:41,214 --> 00:09:43,014
I'll... I'll try it with you.
242
00:09:43,016 --> 00:09:45,950
So just give it a go,
and keep going.
243
00:09:48,221 --> 00:09:50,355
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's it. That's it.
244
00:09:50,357 --> 00:09:52,001
- Did I do that?
- Yeah, yeah, you did, you did.
245
00:09:52,025 --> 00:09:53,025
Keep going. More.
246
00:09:53,093 --> 00:09:56,527
Excellent.
247
00:09:56,530 --> 00:09:57,696
Am I doing that?
248
00:09:57,764 --> 00:09:59,197
Yeah, yeah. More, more, more.
249
00:09:59,265 --> 00:10:01,099
More! More!
250
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,973
I'm just gonna shut the door.
251
00:10:09,042 --> 00:10:11,809
That was really good.
252
00:10:14,381 --> 00:10:17,582
No, it's... it's...
It's not like a guitar.
253
00:10:20,053 --> 00:10:21,552
Slash has got nothing on me.
254
00:10:21,555 --> 00:10:23,454
Thank you so much.
That was awesome.
255
00:10:23,523 --> 00:10:25,467
Thank you very much. That was so fun.
All right, thanks very much.
256
00:10:25,491 --> 00:10:27,651
Good, good. Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you again, man.
257
00:10:28,961 --> 00:10:30,595
- Can I get a picture, too?
- Yes, ma'am.
258
00:10:30,663 --> 00:10:32,397
Yeah. That feels good.
259
00:10:32,399 --> 00:10:34,899
Yeah. He said, "yeah."
260
00:10:34,967 --> 00:10:36,401
Yeah, sometimes
you get recognized,
261
00:10:36,403 --> 00:10:38,536
But this...
This was a happy accident.
262
00:10:38,605 --> 00:10:39,837
Let's go to...
263
00:10:39,906 --> 00:10:41,773
We're going to kinross
and go curling.
264
00:10:41,775 --> 00:10:43,307
Wow.
265
00:10:43,376 --> 00:10:45,443
This is pretty, right?
And that's edinburgh castle.
266
00:10:45,511 --> 00:10:46,611
Wow.
267
00:10:48,981 --> 00:10:51,482
Looks like it just grew right
up out of the... yeah.
268
00:10:51,485 --> 00:10:52,917
Like, it did.
269
00:10:52,985 --> 00:10:55,086
This could be my last view
of edinburgh.
270
00:10:55,088 --> 00:10:56,421
Edin-brah.
271
00:10:56,423 --> 00:10:57,983
Just when I learned
how to pronounce it.
272
00:10:58,024 --> 00:10:59,334
Let's get out of town.
All right. Let's move along.
273
00:10:59,358 --> 00:11:01,592
Let's go curl.
274
00:11:01,661 --> 00:11:04,762
A scottish proverb claims,
"visit this place once,
275
00:11:04,765 --> 00:11:07,232
And it will stick
with you forever."
276
00:11:07,300 --> 00:11:09,167
And as we drive out
of edinburgh...
277
00:11:09,235 --> 00:11:10,835
- Edinburgh, brah.
- Brah.
278
00:11:10,837 --> 00:11:12,270
Edin-brah. Edin-brah.
279
00:11:12,338 --> 00:11:14,272
I already understand why.
280
00:11:15,775 --> 00:11:16,975
Whoa! Sorry.
281
00:11:17,043 --> 00:11:18,342
You ready to curl, girl?
282
00:11:18,411 --> 00:11:19,811
Don't stop. Don't stop.
283
00:11:19,879 --> 00:11:21,512
- Where are we?
- I don't know.
284
00:11:21,515 --> 00:11:23,248
I feel like I've been
transported.
285
00:11:23,316 --> 00:11:25,783
Do you know where
nigg bay would've been?
286
00:11:25,786 --> 00:11:27,051
This is nigg bay.
287
00:11:34,661 --> 00:11:36,627
Fans of "the walking dead"
are quick to point out.
288
00:11:36,630 --> 00:11:38,763
The chemistry between
daryl and carol,
289
00:11:38,831 --> 00:11:41,632
And off-screen, you might say
our friendship has no bounds.
290
00:11:43,403 --> 00:11:44,936
Did you just fart, norman?
291
00:11:45,004 --> 00:11:46,471
I did not fart. You just farted.
292
00:11:46,473 --> 00:11:47,806
Swear to god I didn't.
293
00:11:47,874 --> 00:11:49,474
It was me. You farted?
294
00:11:49,542 --> 00:11:52,277
You and scott wilson are
the biggest farters on our show.
295
00:11:52,345 --> 00:11:54,979
And then andy and I are like,
"you guys are gross."
296
00:11:56,349 --> 00:11:58,015
We're in scotland
to dig up details.
297
00:11:58,084 --> 00:12:00,618
On melissa's great-great
paternal grandfather,
298
00:12:00,620 --> 00:12:03,221
Who, years ago,
lived up in aberdeen.
299
00:12:03,289 --> 00:12:06,190
But one's heritage is more
than just the past.
300
00:12:06,259 --> 00:12:09,360
It's about understanding
the culture from which you came,
301
00:12:09,428 --> 00:12:11,496
And we've got a lot
left to learn.
302
00:12:14,367 --> 00:12:17,435
It's a 30-mile ride through
the southern scottish hillside.
303
00:12:17,504 --> 00:12:19,537
To the town of kinross.
304
00:12:19,605 --> 00:12:22,807
It's where we hope to beat
some locals at their own game.
305
00:12:22,875 --> 00:12:24,709
Scotland is beautiful.
306
00:12:24,777 --> 00:12:29,013
Everywhere you look
is amazingly gorgeous.
307
00:12:29,081 --> 00:12:30,948
This is your roots
right here, girl.
308
00:12:34,253 --> 00:12:35,186
We're there.
309
00:12:35,188 --> 00:12:37,388
Hey. Kinross curling.
310
00:12:37,456 --> 00:12:41,325
Let's do this.
You ready to curl, girl?
311
00:12:54,241 --> 00:12:55,673
Who came up with this?
312
00:13:13,026 --> 00:13:16,795
We have about 10,000 members,
that play in scotland.
313
00:13:16,863 --> 00:13:18,797
And then when did it become
an olympic sport?
314
00:13:18,865 --> 00:13:25,603
It became an olympic sport,
em, officially back in 1924.
315
00:13:25,671 --> 00:13:27,371
The aim of the game of curling.
316
00:13:27,374 --> 00:13:29,407
Is to get closest
to the center of the house.
317
00:13:29,475 --> 00:13:31,375
You're gonna aim to the left
and turn the stone.
318
00:13:31,378 --> 00:13:33,377
Or aim to the right and turn
the stone the other way.
319
00:13:33,380 --> 00:13:35,246
'Cause the more the stone spins,
320
00:13:35,315 --> 00:13:37,475
The less it's gonna curl
and the straighter it will go.
321
00:13:38,818 --> 00:13:39,951
All right. You ready?
322
00:13:41,388 --> 00:13:42,587
Aim for the brush,
and turn it clockwise.
323
00:13:42,589 --> 00:13:44,555
Okay. Wow, this is heavy.
324
00:13:44,624 --> 00:13:45,657
Aah!
325
00:13:48,228 --> 00:13:51,128
Go, baby, go, baby,
go, baby, go, baby, go!
326
00:13:56,135 --> 00:13:57,602
I went the wrong way.
327
00:13:57,670 --> 00:13:59,737
Nice. No, that's good.
That's good.
328
00:13:59,805 --> 00:14:01,539
- You're laughing.
- You're laughing at her.
329
00:14:01,608 --> 00:14:03,274
It's harder than it looks,
for real.
330
00:14:03,343 --> 00:14:04,542
It is harder, yeah. Yeah.
331
00:14:08,114 --> 00:14:11,816
I'm pretty sure that's illegal.
332
00:14:11,818 --> 00:14:15,119
Get it on. Perfect.
333
00:14:15,187 --> 00:14:16,988
I figured that was illegal.
Yeah.
334
00:14:17,056 --> 00:14:18,289
Yeah.
335
00:14:19,993 --> 00:14:21,759
That was really fun.
336
00:14:21,828 --> 00:14:24,109
Well played. Well played. Yeah,
thank you for teaching us.
337
00:14:25,164 --> 00:14:26,664
Where are
you headin' off to now?
338
00:14:26,732 --> 00:14:29,901
I'm going to find out about
my ancestors, the campbells.
339
00:14:29,969 --> 00:14:30,869
What's the name?
340
00:14:30,937 --> 00:14:32,604
Campbells. Campbell.
341
00:14:32,672 --> 00:14:35,192
And I'm tracing my great-great-
grandfather, alexander campbell.
342
00:14:37,644 --> 00:14:39,577
There's a place called nigg.
343
00:14:43,215 --> 00:14:46,117
A wise scotsman once wrote,
344
00:14:46,185 --> 00:14:49,520
"we are all travelers
in the wilderness of this world,
345
00:14:49,588 --> 00:14:54,158
And the best we can find in our
travels is an honest friend."
346
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,662
And as our first day in scotland
comes to a close,
347
00:14:57,730 --> 00:14:59,330
I'm excited to help
my good friend look.
348
00:14:59,332 --> 00:15:00,899
For what she came here to find.
349
00:15:00,967 --> 00:15:03,000
- Well, cheers.
- Cheers, guys.
350
00:15:03,069 --> 00:15:04,468
- Thanks. Thanks.
- Sláinte mhaith.
351
00:15:04,537 --> 00:15:05,937
Sláinte mhaith. I like that.
352
00:15:14,281 --> 00:15:17,214
Today, our mission is twofold...
353
00:15:17,217 --> 00:15:19,550
Engage in local culture.
354
00:15:19,618 --> 00:15:22,153
While attempting to avoid
running off the road.
355
00:15:22,155 --> 00:15:23,988
You are really huggin' the left.
356
00:15:24,056 --> 00:15:26,157
I'm huggin' the left?
You are huggin' the left.
357
00:15:26,159 --> 00:15:28,036
I like it over here.
We don't wanna get on the...
358
00:15:28,060 --> 00:15:30,561
Am I... am I hanging over the left?
I'm like, "aah."
359
00:15:30,563 --> 00:15:32,396
The fabric of scotland's society.
360
00:15:32,465 --> 00:15:34,565
Lies in its time-honored
traditions.
361
00:15:34,567 --> 00:15:36,901
The scots are a proud,
hardworking people.
362
00:15:36,969 --> 00:15:38,536
Whose customs and heritage.
363
00:15:38,604 --> 00:15:40,939
Continue to be passed down
and fiercely protected.
364
00:15:41,007 --> 00:15:42,673
Look at this cool dog.
365
00:15:42,742 --> 00:15:44,709
Hunting has always been
a way of life up here.
366
00:15:44,777 --> 00:15:47,244
Since the ancient times,
and we're heading to a place.
367
00:15:47,247 --> 00:15:49,246
That's keeping
that tradition alive.
368
00:15:49,249 --> 00:15:51,248
There's nothing better
than driving.
369
00:15:51,251 --> 00:15:52,917
Through the scottish
countryside.
370
00:15:52,919 --> 00:15:54,652
Without a doubt,
probably one of the most.
371
00:15:54,654 --> 00:15:56,754
Beautiful places in the world.
372
00:15:56,822 --> 00:15:59,256
It's stunning... the scenery,
the mountainside, the wildlife.
373
00:15:59,259 --> 00:16:00,491
It's pretty cool.
374
00:16:00,493 --> 00:16:01,659
And once you come here,
375
00:16:01,728 --> 00:16:03,728
You fall in love,
you never leave.
376
00:16:05,398 --> 00:16:06,864
It's so pretty here.
377
00:16:06,866 --> 00:16:07,866
Would you live out here?
378
00:16:07,933 --> 00:16:09,066
Yes. Right?
379
00:16:09,135 --> 00:16:11,102
You know, I've always had,
380
00:16:11,170 --> 00:16:14,338
Like, this romanticized
idea in my head.
381
00:16:14,341 --> 00:16:16,107
That I would love to just,
382
00:16:16,175 --> 00:16:19,343
Like, live on a cliffside
with some sheep.
383
00:16:19,412 --> 00:16:23,614
And the ocean crashing
on the cliff rock, yeah.
384
00:16:23,682 --> 00:16:26,283
Like a big douche commercial.
Ha-ha!
385
00:16:26,352 --> 00:16:29,687
You ruined the whole thing.
I hate you, norman.
386
00:16:29,756 --> 00:16:31,055
Kind of does, though,
doesn't it?
387
00:16:31,123 --> 00:16:32,790
Sounds like it.
388
00:16:37,963 --> 00:16:38,997
How are ya? I'm norman.
389
00:16:39,065 --> 00:16:40,075
I'm charlie. Charlie thorburn.
390
00:16:40,099 --> 00:16:41,232
Nice to meet you. Hello.
391
00:16:41,300 --> 00:16:42,466
Aren't you cold?
392
00:16:42,535 --> 00:16:43,367
We're scottish. Yeah.
393
00:16:43,436 --> 00:16:44,702
You're not cold.
394
00:16:44,770 --> 00:16:46,237
It's not raining
and it's not windy,
395
00:16:46,239 --> 00:16:48,239
So, you know, we're weird.
This is like the summer.
396
00:16:51,311 --> 00:16:54,979
Charlie thorburn started
mordor gundogs in 2006.
397
00:16:55,047 --> 00:16:57,114
Specializing
in labradors and spaniels,
398
00:16:57,183 --> 00:16:59,784
His innovative breeding
and training techniques.
399
00:16:59,852 --> 00:17:01,285
Have produced top-line dogs.
400
00:17:01,353 --> 00:17:03,254
Which are sought after
all over the world.
401
00:17:03,322 --> 00:17:04,922
Labradors
were invented in scotland.
402
00:17:04,991 --> 00:17:06,223
They originated here.
403
00:17:06,292 --> 00:17:08,325
It was a very old
scottish family...
404
00:17:08,394 --> 00:17:10,172
The... the buccleuch family,
the duke of buccleuch,
405
00:17:10,196 --> 00:17:12,530
Who's the biggest
landowner in europe.
406
00:17:12,598 --> 00:17:14,543
And were they always hunting dogs?
I mean, they were... and he...
407
00:17:14,567 --> 00:17:16,333
They were invented
as a hunting dog.
408
00:17:16,402 --> 00:17:18,269
He had a huge hunting estate...
He has a number of them still...
409
00:17:18,271 --> 00:17:20,971
And he wanted to create
his own dog, the labrador,
410
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:22,407
Which is the most popular.
411
00:17:22,475 --> 00:17:24,142
And most famous
pedigree dog in the world.
412
00:17:24,210 --> 00:17:26,377
You know, hunting in...
In scotland, it's...
413
00:17:26,446 --> 00:17:28,779
It's a very old...
Very old tradition.
414
00:17:28,848 --> 00:17:30,815
But hunters around the world
have a little bit.
415
00:17:30,883 --> 00:17:32,817
Of a sort of hunt...
A hunter's bucket list.
416
00:17:32,819 --> 00:17:35,053
They wanna go to scotland,
and they wanna, you know,
417
00:17:35,121 --> 00:17:37,455
Hunt in the traditional
kind of scottish way.
418
00:17:37,523 --> 00:17:40,157
What we want them for is
to retrieve game birds for us.
419
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,126
They will retrieve a pheasant,
a rabbit, a hare.
420
00:17:42,194 --> 00:17:44,095
So... have you ever
trained a dog to, like,
421
00:17:44,163 --> 00:17:45,496
Work with scotland yard.
422
00:17:45,498 --> 00:17:47,965
And find bodies
or anything crazy like that?
423
00:17:48,033 --> 00:17:51,035
Um, we've got a springer spaniel
that went to the police.
424
00:17:51,103 --> 00:17:53,437
As a-a drug-sniffer dog
just last year.
425
00:17:53,506 --> 00:17:55,706
We've got a little cocker
spaniel that is called cookie.
426
00:17:55,774 --> 00:17:57,641
She sniffs all the...
Kind of the queen's cars.
427
00:17:57,644 --> 00:17:59,176
And aeroplanes and things.
428
00:17:59,245 --> 00:18:00,889
When she goes up to aberdeen,
she goes and checks out,
429
00:18:00,913 --> 00:18:02,724
Makes sure prince philip
isn't carrying anything.
430
00:18:02,748 --> 00:18:04,293
He shouldn't do on the plane...
That kind of thing.
431
00:18:04,317 --> 00:18:06,117
Right.
432
00:18:06,185 --> 00:18:07,718
So, this is mufasa.
433
00:18:07,786 --> 00:18:10,054
You need to be, like,
assertive enough.
434
00:18:10,056 --> 00:18:11,789
That he's confident
to go with you, okay?
435
00:18:11,791 --> 00:18:14,191
Come on, mufasa. Come on.
436
00:18:14,194 --> 00:18:16,827
Heel. And sit. Can I keep it?
437
00:18:18,063 --> 00:18:19,263
Can I keep mufasa?
438
00:18:21,100 --> 00:18:22,633
Go get it.
439
00:18:24,537 --> 00:18:26,871
This is a complete
opposite of my cat.
440
00:18:26,873 --> 00:18:28,205
Like, complete opposite.
441
00:18:28,208 --> 00:18:29,406
My cat's like, "hey, what's up?"
442
00:18:29,409 --> 00:18:30,875
Bleh! Clean that up."
443
00:18:30,943 --> 00:18:32,409
You know what I mean?
444
00:18:32,478 --> 00:18:34,345
Okay, so, simple as that.
445
00:18:34,413 --> 00:18:36,147
So do you wanna try...
Try with him,
446
00:18:36,149 --> 00:18:37,281
We'll see how you get on?
447
00:18:37,350 --> 00:18:41,085
Sure. Nacho, heel, heel.
448
00:18:41,087 --> 00:18:43,127
- Nacho's not loving you.
- He's like, "nacho mama."
449
00:18:43,189 --> 00:18:44,266
Come on. You gotta be positive...
Okay.
450
00:18:44,290 --> 00:18:46,624
But you've also got to... Yes.
451
00:18:46,692 --> 00:18:47,769
You've gotta be friendly with him, as well.
I gotta be stern and friendly. Okay.
452
00:18:47,793 --> 00:18:49,560
Nacho. Come on.
453
00:18:49,562 --> 00:18:51,262
There you go. You see?
Heel. Heel.
454
00:18:51,330 --> 00:18:53,564
Come, nacho. Nacho.
455
00:18:53,633 --> 00:18:55,499
So, so far on the grading scale,
456
00:18:55,568 --> 00:18:57,128
Norman's getting, like,
a "b"-plus, "a."
457
00:18:57,169 --> 00:18:58,702
Sit. Sit. Good.
458
00:18:58,771 --> 00:19:00,615
Melissa, I'm afraid you're not
doing quite so well.
459
00:19:00,639 --> 00:19:02,873
God.
460
00:19:02,942 --> 00:19:04,208
- Sit.
- Sit.
461
00:19:04,276 --> 00:19:07,545
He's so happy. He's so happy.
462
00:19:13,653 --> 00:19:17,121
You're the best.
463
00:19:20,993 --> 00:19:22,671
- Thank you so much for all this.
- No problem.
464
00:19:22,695 --> 00:19:24,395
Really nice to meet you.
Yeah, super interesting, yeah.
465
00:19:24,397 --> 00:19:26,764
It was so nice to meet you.
Thank you for the training tips.
466
00:19:26,832 --> 00:19:28,265
Thanks.
And have a good onward journey.
467
00:19:28,268 --> 00:19:29,378
- Thank you very much.
- Yeah, thank you.
468
00:19:29,402 --> 00:19:31,335
- Thank you.
- It'll be fun.
469
00:19:31,404 --> 00:19:33,649
You might be actually seeing
what... what your ancestors saw.
470
00:19:33,673 --> 00:19:35,406
He probably stood right here.
471
00:19:35,474 --> 00:19:37,875
This is my dream come true.
472
00:19:37,943 --> 00:19:39,476
I feel like
I've been transported.
473
00:19:39,479 --> 00:19:41,245
We're in the "game of thrones."
474
00:19:45,384 --> 00:19:47,485
Sorry.
475
00:19:47,553 --> 00:19:49,554
Could... I forgot where...
What gear I was in.
476
00:19:49,622 --> 00:19:51,755
What?
477
00:19:51,758 --> 00:19:53,157
What? What? I'm a great driver.
478
00:19:53,225 --> 00:19:54,458
I didn't say anything.
479
00:19:54,527 --> 00:19:56,160
I'm a very good driver,
like "rain man."
480
00:19:56,228 --> 00:19:58,563
Crammed within
scotland's 30,000 square miles.
481
00:19:58,631 --> 00:20:04,168
Is a storied history of man
that spans over 10,000 years.
482
00:20:04,237 --> 00:20:07,371
Heading north,
it's a 40-mile ride up the a90.
483
00:20:07,373 --> 00:20:08,939
Where we'll reach
a medieval fortress.
484
00:20:09,008 --> 00:20:11,475
Overlooking the cliffs
of stonehaven.
485
00:20:14,247 --> 00:20:15,846
The dunnottar castle.
486
00:20:15,914 --> 00:20:17,181
What's the story of it?
487
00:20:17,249 --> 00:20:19,783
"The ruins are spread
over 3.5 acres."
488
00:20:19,786 --> 00:20:23,621
On top of steep cliffs
that drop into the north sea.
489
00:20:23,689 --> 00:20:28,459
It's best known as the place
where the honours of scotland.
490
00:20:28,461 --> 00:20:30,595
Were hidden from
oliver cromwell's.
491
00:20:30,663 --> 00:20:33,464
"Invading army
in the 17th century."
492
00:20:35,535 --> 00:20:37,234
My god. So we're related.
493
00:20:37,237 --> 00:20:38,502
What are you talking about?
494
00:20:38,570 --> 00:20:40,304
Oliver cromwell
is my mother's side.
495
00:20:40,372 --> 00:20:41,939
So it's your mom's side?
Is that right?
496
00:20:42,008 --> 00:20:43,741
Probably more than likely.
497
00:20:43,809 --> 00:20:45,409
Probably more than
likely that...
498
00:20:45,411 --> 00:20:48,212
He's my 14th-great-grandfather.
499
00:20:48,281 --> 00:20:51,148
Yeah, I'm kind of
getting the chills.
500
00:20:51,217 --> 00:20:52,816
Back in the 17th century,
501
00:20:52,885 --> 00:20:56,354
England controlled all
of scotland, ireland, and wales,
502
00:20:56,422 --> 00:20:58,589
And cromwell,
he was lord protector,
503
00:20:58,657 --> 00:21:00,090
Beloved in England,
504
00:21:00,159 --> 00:21:03,127
Deemed a brutal dictator
by the irish and scots.
505
00:21:03,195 --> 00:21:07,498
What you thought of him depended
on whose side you were on.
506
00:21:07,566 --> 00:21:11,836
For melissa, this place is
a labyrinth of family history.
507
00:21:11,904 --> 00:21:15,172
With paths that cross in
the most unexpected of ways.
508
00:21:18,577 --> 00:21:20,044
Is that it?
509
00:21:20,112 --> 00:21:23,013
Welcome to dunnottar castle.
510
00:21:24,116 --> 00:21:26,350
That doesn't even look real.
511
00:21:26,418 --> 00:21:28,118
That's so king arthur.
512
00:21:37,229 --> 00:21:39,029
This is overwhelming, norman.
513
00:21:39,098 --> 00:21:40,631
Overwhelming, yeah.
514
00:21:44,136 --> 00:21:46,403
What?
515
00:21:46,406 --> 00:21:47,538
Mel, this is nuts.
516
00:21:47,606 --> 00:21:48,873
I wonder... where are we?
517
00:21:48,941 --> 00:21:50,107
I don't know.
518
00:21:50,175 --> 00:21:51,486
I feel like
I've been transported.
519
00:21:51,510 --> 00:21:53,711
We're in the "game of thrones."
520
00:21:56,382 --> 00:21:58,248
Are you the keeper
of the castle?
521
00:21:58,317 --> 00:21:59,616
Jim. Pleased to meet you.
Jim, nice to meet you.
522
00:21:59,619 --> 00:22:01,318
How's things? Good.
523
00:22:01,321 --> 00:22:02,931
Hey. How are ya? Norman. Hi, norman.
How you doin'?
524
00:22:02,955 --> 00:22:04,132
How's things? Nice to meet you.
Pleasure.
525
00:22:04,156 --> 00:22:05,756
It's great.
This place is awesome.
526
00:22:05,825 --> 00:22:07,991
Which is the oldest
part of this castle?
527
00:22:08,060 --> 00:22:11,462
So, the oldest part of
the castle is just right here.
528
00:22:11,530 --> 00:22:12,763
There was a chapel here.
529
00:22:12,765 --> 00:22:15,332
1276,= actually, this was built.
530
00:22:15,335 --> 00:22:16,867
The castle changed hands.
531
00:22:16,936 --> 00:22:18,802
Backwards and forwards
over the years.
532
00:22:18,871 --> 00:22:21,105
And, william wallace
took it back from the english.
533
00:22:21,107 --> 00:22:24,007
And, took it back for scotland.
534
00:22:26,845 --> 00:22:28,946
How did they pick this land
to put the castle on? Like...
535
00:22:28,948 --> 00:22:32,316
There was a road that went
between edinburgh.
536
00:22:32,385 --> 00:22:34,985
So, if you wanted to move
any men or armies.
537
00:22:35,054 --> 00:22:36,454
Or anything of any size,
538
00:22:36,522 --> 00:22:39,523
You'd have to move...
Move on this road.
539
00:22:39,525 --> 00:22:42,826
And the castle here was built
to defend that road.
540
00:22:42,895 --> 00:22:46,163
So, what happened back in 1650s,
541
00:22:46,231 --> 00:22:48,999
Oliver cromwell wanted to
take over britain, basically.
542
00:22:49,001 --> 00:22:50,534
He marched on scotland.
543
00:22:50,602 --> 00:22:52,836
And wanted to... to destroy
the crown jewels.
544
00:22:52,905 --> 00:22:55,506
So, they were
brought here for safe keeping.
545
00:22:55,574 --> 00:22:57,141
Oliver cromwell's army.
546
00:22:57,209 --> 00:23:00,811
Was camped up on the hill
just at the top here.
547
00:23:00,879 --> 00:23:03,046
Wow.
548
00:23:06,785 --> 00:23:09,386
The crown jewels were saved
by some local people,
549
00:23:09,389 --> 00:23:11,288
Smuggled out of the castle,
550
00:23:11,357 --> 00:23:13,524
And taken down to
the local church and buried,
551
00:23:13,592 --> 00:23:16,293
For about eight or nine years.
552
00:23:16,295 --> 00:23:18,695
And then, when charles ii.
553
00:23:18,764 --> 00:23:21,698
Was re-established as,
the king of britain,
554
00:23:21,701 --> 00:23:23,534
The crown jewels
were given back to him.
555
00:23:25,771 --> 00:23:28,872
The people that got the jewels
out... was it a woman?
556
00:23:28,941 --> 00:23:30,340
It was a woman.
557
00:23:30,343 --> 00:23:31,842
The person who was
in charge of the castle.
558
00:23:31,844 --> 00:23:33,544
Was a guy called george ogilvy,
559
00:23:33,612 --> 00:23:37,581
And his wife arranged
with another woman,
560
00:23:37,583 --> 00:23:40,117
Mrs. Grainger,
who is the minister's wife.
561
00:23:40,186 --> 00:23:43,554
She arranged in secret with her
to smuggle them out.
562
00:23:43,622 --> 00:23:44,988
And didn't even tell
her husband.
563
00:23:44,991 --> 00:23:46,435
Taking the initiative
and just doing it herself.
564
00:23:46,459 --> 00:23:47,558
Exactly. Yeah, yeah.
565
00:23:47,626 --> 00:23:48,859
"We've got to save the jewels."
566
00:23:48,861 --> 00:23:50,260
Yeah.
567
00:23:54,967 --> 00:23:57,835
They say there was only
40 people here.
568
00:23:57,837 --> 00:23:59,837
That defended the castle
for eight months.
569
00:23:59,905 --> 00:24:01,438
From oliver cromwell's army,
570
00:24:01,441 --> 00:24:03,841
So it's an amazing feat, you
know, when you think about it.
571
00:24:03,909 --> 00:24:05,342
- Wow.
- Yeah.
572
00:24:05,344 --> 00:24:06,944
That is an amazing feat.
Especially when you just.
573
00:24:06,946 --> 00:24:09,213
Wreak so much havoc across scotland.
Yeah.
574
00:24:09,281 --> 00:24:11,059
Have you heard a wee bit
about oliver cromwell, then?
575
00:24:11,083 --> 00:24:12,293
Have you done
some research on him?
576
00:24:12,317 --> 00:24:15,352
Might be related.
577
00:24:15,421 --> 00:24:16,554
No way.
578
00:24:16,622 --> 00:24:19,089
Quite possibly
my 14th grandfather.
579
00:24:19,158 --> 00:24:20,858
Really? Yes.
580
00:24:20,860 --> 00:24:22,893
Yeah, that's... that's
a bit... I don't know.
581
00:24:22,961 --> 00:24:24,439
I don't know if I should
let you in the castle.
582
00:24:24,463 --> 00:24:25,796
Or not in that case.
583
00:24:25,864 --> 00:24:26,764
Yeah, I don't know.
Just throw me over.
584
00:24:26,832 --> 00:24:28,866
Throw me over now.
585
00:24:30,335 --> 00:24:32,013
From what I've heard
about him, that may be.
586
00:24:32,037 --> 00:24:33,415
I mean, he... he...
It was like he was...
587
00:24:33,439 --> 00:24:36,040
He was fighting
for a revolution.
588
00:24:36,108 --> 00:24:38,308
He wanted, you know,
the... the people in charge.
589
00:24:38,377 --> 00:24:41,378
Do you think his... his ideas
were good to start with.
590
00:24:41,380 --> 00:24:43,614
And he just went off the rails?
591
00:24:43,682 --> 00:24:45,148
What do you think?
592
00:24:45,151 --> 00:24:46,984
I don't know how to ta...
I don't know how to take him.
593
00:24:46,986 --> 00:24:50,421
Yeah. I mean, I know
I don't know.
594
00:24:50,489 --> 00:24:52,890
Scotland's ongoing 800-year.
595
00:24:52,892 --> 00:24:55,392
Struggle for independence
from british rule.
596
00:24:55,394 --> 00:24:58,428
Has oft pitted clan versus clan,
597
00:24:58,497 --> 00:25:01,098
A complex plight still
without resolution today.
598
00:25:05,805 --> 00:25:07,504
How you feelin'?
What are you thinkin'?
599
00:25:07,507 --> 00:25:09,606
I've just... so much
goin' on in my head.
600
00:25:09,675 --> 00:25:11,108
You know what's funny?
601
00:25:11,176 --> 00:25:13,243
I was actually thinking
about, um, negan.
602
00:25:13,312 --> 00:25:15,813
Like how? Like, a guy
like oliver cromwell,
603
00:25:15,881 --> 00:25:17,648
I think maybe
he... he started out.
604
00:25:17,716 --> 00:25:19,650
With the best
intentions, you know?
605
00:25:19,718 --> 00:25:23,153
And then just kind of...
606
00:25:23,222 --> 00:25:25,255
I don't know,
you lose sight of...
607
00:25:25,324 --> 00:25:27,258
Lose sight of everything,
and then...
608
00:25:27,326 --> 00:25:31,828
And then the way you go about
things defeats the purpose.
609
00:25:31,831 --> 00:25:33,597
That's the thing
about family roots.
610
00:25:33,665 --> 00:25:37,534
Dig deep enough, and you might
not like what you unearth.
611
00:25:37,537 --> 00:25:39,169
And after invoking that name...
612
00:25:39,237 --> 00:25:40,604
All right,
let's park this sucker.
613
00:25:40,672 --> 00:25:43,373
I think it's time
we call it a night,
614
00:25:43,442 --> 00:25:45,509
Because tomorrow,
the city of aberdeen calls,
615
00:25:45,577 --> 00:25:47,477
And we continue
our journey for answers.
616
00:25:47,546 --> 00:25:49,313
Beer?
617
00:25:50,248 --> 00:25:52,449
By this point, he's changed
his profession.
618
00:25:52,517 --> 00:25:54,217
Alexander... contractor.
619
00:25:54,286 --> 00:25:55,986
He sounds a little shady.
620
00:25:55,988 --> 00:25:58,148
I have a sneaking suspicion
that's actually on purpose.
621
00:26:02,261 --> 00:26:03,561
Wow. Hold on.
622
00:26:03,629 --> 00:26:06,397
Look at that dude.
Let's go talk to him.
623
00:26:07,934 --> 00:26:09,566
Wow. These birds are beautiful.
624
00:26:09,569 --> 00:26:10,867
- I'm steve.
- I'm norman.
625
00:26:10,936 --> 00:26:12,536
Nice to meet you.
This is melissa.
626
00:26:12,605 --> 00:26:14,015
Hi, steve. Melissa. Nice to meet you.
Hi, melissa.
627
00:26:14,039 --> 00:26:15,283
Fancy trying one on the glove?
Sure.
628
00:26:15,307 --> 00:26:17,708
She's so pretty.
You're so pretty.
629
00:26:17,776 --> 00:26:20,010
Chillin' with an owl.
630
00:26:20,079 --> 00:26:21,244
Aww.
631
00:26:21,313 --> 00:26:23,313
He's so "harry potter,"
that one.
632
00:26:23,382 --> 00:26:25,749
Hi.
633
00:26:25,818 --> 00:26:28,652
I think carol should have
a bird on the show.
634
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,120
Does he look relaxed?
635
00:26:30,188 --> 00:26:31,388
He looks relaxed, yeah.
636
00:26:31,456 --> 00:26:32,790
He's not too bad. "Not too bad."
637
00:26:32,858 --> 00:26:34,425
In my mind, I'm thinking,
638
00:26:34,493 --> 00:26:36,493
"this bird could just
rip my face off."
639
00:26:36,561 --> 00:26:38,295
Nah, he's never
done anything yet.
640
00:26:38,297 --> 00:26:39,563
Yet.
641
00:26:39,631 --> 00:26:41,498
Well.
642
00:26:41,500 --> 00:26:42,700
Hello.
643
00:27:00,585 --> 00:27:03,120
Riding in scotland, you get to
experience the scottish weather.
644
00:27:03,122 --> 00:27:05,122
In all its cold, wet glory.
645
00:27:06,859 --> 00:27:09,526
Day three, we continue
our travels toward aberdeen,
646
00:27:09,528 --> 00:27:12,463
The home of melissa's
great-great-grandfather,
647
00:27:12,531 --> 00:27:14,798
And where we'll explore
her family history.
648
00:27:20,673 --> 00:27:22,072
Look at those guys,
649
00:27:22,074 --> 00:27:24,307
Just chillin' out
in the middle of the field.
650
00:27:24,376 --> 00:27:26,210
"Yeah, we're sheep, chillin'."
651
00:27:28,147 --> 00:27:29,546
Wow. Look how pretty.
652
00:27:29,614 --> 00:27:31,415
Aren't you freezing?
653
00:27:31,483 --> 00:27:34,885
Want to get up close
and personal with...
654
00:27:34,953 --> 00:27:36,086
With this... want to get out?
655
00:27:36,088 --> 00:27:38,822
Let's go meet some sheep people.
656
00:27:38,890 --> 00:27:41,191
Is that a farm?
Like, behind there?
657
00:27:48,500 --> 00:27:49,900
Whoo!
658
00:27:51,169 --> 00:27:52,302
Wow. What is this?
659
00:27:52,371 --> 00:27:55,839
Wonder if that's... Hello?
660
00:27:55,841 --> 00:27:57,240
Hi.
661
00:27:57,309 --> 00:27:58,842
- Hello.
- Hi.
662
00:27:58,911 --> 00:28:00,477
I'm melissa.
663
00:28:00,546 --> 00:28:02,056
Hi. I'm alice. Nice to meet you.
Hi, alice.
664
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:03,424
Nice to see you.
Sorry, I've got muddy hands.
665
00:28:03,448 --> 00:28:05,049
Hi. Norman.
It's nice to meet you.
666
00:28:05,117 --> 00:28:06,494
Nice to meet you. Hi. Hello, sir.
How are you?
667
00:28:06,518 --> 00:28:07,684
How are you, melissa?
This is my dad.
668
00:28:07,687 --> 00:28:08,518
How are you? What's your name?
669
00:28:08,521 --> 00:28:10,087
Graham.
670
00:28:11,957 --> 00:28:15,092
We are one of two rare-breed
farm parks in scotland,
671
00:28:15,094 --> 00:28:16,526
And we specialize in breeding.
672
00:28:16,529 --> 00:28:18,028
Rare and endangered livestock.
673
00:28:18,096 --> 00:28:19,262
This guy included?
674
00:28:19,331 --> 00:28:20,864
Yes, yes, yes, yes. Yep.
675
00:28:20,932 --> 00:28:22,410
This is runrig. What... what is this?
Is this...
676
00:28:22,434 --> 00:28:25,068
So he's an english
longhorn bull.
677
00:28:25,071 --> 00:28:27,270
So he's just a baby.
He's about a year.
678
00:28:27,339 --> 00:28:29,773
Baby? Yeah.
679
00:28:29,841 --> 00:28:31,575
Okay?
680
00:28:33,679 --> 00:28:35,378
So, what are you guys
doing in scotland?
681
00:28:35,447 --> 00:28:37,881
Well, I'm... long story short,
682
00:28:37,883 --> 00:28:40,017
I'm tracing my family roots...
683
00:28:40,085 --> 00:28:42,686
Okay... And I have
tracked them to aberdeen.
684
00:28:42,755 --> 00:28:44,688
Well, luckily, a lot
of the stuff in aberdeen.
685
00:28:44,757 --> 00:28:46,556
Is still present.
686
00:28:46,559 --> 00:28:49,392
So nothing's really
changed that much. Good.
687
00:28:49,461 --> 00:28:51,428
So I hope you find really
lovely, great things.
688
00:28:51,430 --> 00:28:52,896
Thank you.
689
00:28:52,964 --> 00:28:54,965
I have a lot...
A lot more research to do.
690
00:28:57,469 --> 00:28:59,236
What do you think a day
in the life.
691
00:28:59,304 --> 00:29:01,605
Of a sheepherder would've
been like back in the 1800s?
692
00:29:01,673 --> 00:29:03,040
Brutal.
693
00:29:03,108 --> 00:29:05,342
You'd have to love the job,
because, you know,
694
00:29:05,344 --> 00:29:08,011
You be with your flock
all the time.
695
00:29:08,079 --> 00:29:10,313
You'd keep warm... you know,
your life was the sheep,
696
00:29:10,316 --> 00:29:11,915
And if you lost them
or if something was ill.
697
00:29:11,917 --> 00:29:13,984
Or something happened,
then that's you costing money.
698
00:29:13,986 --> 00:29:17,221
That's your livelihood. Yeah,
that is your livelihood, yeah.
699
00:29:17,289 --> 00:29:20,290
What made you guys get into,
saving livestock and so forth?
700
00:29:20,358 --> 00:29:23,160
Well, my dad's
always been a farmer,
701
00:29:23,228 --> 00:29:26,329
And then we work with
the rare breeds survival trust,
702
00:29:26,398 --> 00:29:29,933
Which is, um, the only
organization to help rare breeds.
703
00:29:29,935 --> 00:29:31,368
It's such a beautiful
place to live.
704
00:29:31,436 --> 00:29:34,104
It was so nice,
to drive up here.
705
00:29:34,172 --> 00:29:35,917
The north sea is right here,
and it's a really lovely view.
706
00:29:35,941 --> 00:29:37,381
We've got lots
of lovely gully caves,
707
00:29:37,442 --> 00:29:38,842
And it's all up the coast. Yeah.
708
00:29:38,911 --> 00:29:40,321
And so if you wanna come see...
Okay.
709
00:29:40,345 --> 00:29:41,845
That'd be really good.
710
00:29:44,550 --> 00:29:46,183
Welcome to the north sea.
711
00:29:46,251 --> 00:29:47,951
Wow. This is beautiful, though.
712
00:29:48,020 --> 00:29:49,820
Wow!
713
00:29:51,690 --> 00:29:52,989
Beautiful view.
714
00:29:53,058 --> 00:29:55,792
And some very fresh air.
715
00:30:01,299 --> 00:30:04,067
I would imagine that most people
that took residence around here.
716
00:30:04,135 --> 00:30:07,537
Were farming
some way or another.
717
00:30:07,540 --> 00:30:08,783
Um it would've been
a lot of farming.
718
00:30:08,807 --> 00:30:10,640
And fishing and quarrying.
719
00:30:10,643 --> 00:30:13,110
And, um, we've got the harbor
in aberdeen,
720
00:30:13,178 --> 00:30:15,112
Which would've been
a fishing port at one point.
721
00:30:15,180 --> 00:30:17,647
Do you know where
nigg bay would've been?
722
00:30:17,716 --> 00:30:19,316
This is nigg bay.
723
00:30:19,318 --> 00:30:21,151
This is nigg bay?
724
00:30:21,219 --> 00:30:23,531
So there is a lighthouse, which
you... you can't really see.
725
00:30:23,555 --> 00:30:25,589
At the moment,
but that's nigg bay.
726
00:30:25,591 --> 00:30:27,491
So we are in nigg at the moment.
727
00:30:27,559 --> 00:30:28,925
Wow. Yeah.
728
00:30:28,928 --> 00:30:31,428
Nigg bay is...
Is where her family lived.
729
00:30:31,496 --> 00:30:33,830
Well, there you go. Yeah.
Could've been right here.
730
00:30:33,833 --> 00:30:36,466
So you might be actually seeing
what... what your ancestors saw.
731
00:30:36,535 --> 00:30:38,401
They probably stood right here.
732
00:30:38,470 --> 00:30:39,837
This is it.
733
00:30:39,905 --> 00:30:42,372
This is kinda it.
734
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:43,640
This is my dream come true.
735
00:30:44,843 --> 00:30:46,576
This is it right there.
736
00:30:46,645 --> 00:30:48,545
There's something enchanting
about discovering.
737
00:30:48,547 --> 00:30:51,047
You're standing in the shadows
of family ghosts,
738
00:30:51,116 --> 00:30:54,417
And stumbling upon this place,
half a world away from home,
739
00:30:54,420 --> 00:30:58,155
Feels less of a coincidence
with every wave that crashes.
740
00:30:58,223 --> 00:30:59,623
So nice to meet you. You, too.
741
00:30:59,691 --> 00:31:00,924
Ready? To the car.
742
00:31:00,992 --> 00:31:02,392
To the car. Okay, bye.
743
00:31:02,460 --> 00:31:03,627
Bye. Thank you so much.
Bye. Thank you.
744
00:31:03,629 --> 00:31:04,961
Bye. Bye.
745
00:31:06,432 --> 00:31:08,031
- My gosh.
- Dude!
746
00:31:08,033 --> 00:31:09,699
Yeah, that was
a little emotional.
747
00:31:09,768 --> 00:31:11,568
Throughout my life,
748
00:31:11,636 --> 00:31:13,470
I've never had much
in the way of roots.
749
00:31:13,538 --> 00:31:15,405
I didn't look back because
I didn't think
750
00:31:15,473 --> 00:31:17,908
I had anything, really,
to look back to.
751
00:31:17,976 --> 00:31:19,309
How do you feel?
752
00:31:19,377 --> 00:31:20,755
I'm starting to feel
a little overwhelmed.
753
00:31:20,779 --> 00:31:22,545
Yeah, so, your relatives
were right here,
754
00:31:22,614 --> 00:31:24,047
Looking at that ocean.
755
00:31:24,049 --> 00:31:26,183
I feel like I just...
It's all bubbling up,
756
00:31:26,251 --> 00:31:27,584
And I feel like I wanna scream.
757
00:31:27,652 --> 00:31:29,119
Aah! But I'm realizing now.
758
00:31:29,187 --> 00:31:31,054
Just how mistaken I've been
all along.
759
00:31:31,056 --> 00:31:33,256
But I feel so much better.
760
00:31:33,259 --> 00:31:35,392
As we leave the area
of nigg bay,
761
00:31:35,460 --> 00:31:37,394
It's a quick five-mile drive
up the coast.
762
00:31:37,462 --> 00:31:42,132
To our final destination,
the port city of aberdeen.
763
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:45,101
The community in aberdeen
thrive to do really well,
764
00:31:45,170 --> 00:31:47,971
From the paper mills
to the quarries.
765
00:31:48,039 --> 00:31:50,440
And the fishing,
the oil industry.
766
00:31:50,508 --> 00:31:52,743
This is a cool little area
right here, right?
767
00:31:52,811 --> 00:31:54,211
Aberdeen has a lot of history.
768
00:31:54,279 --> 00:31:56,413
That you have to look
a little bit harder for,
769
00:31:56,481 --> 00:31:58,448
But once you find it,
it's pretty amazing.
770
00:31:58,516 --> 00:31:59,917
Legend has it that the left arm.
771
00:31:59,985 --> 00:32:01,785
Of scotland's
most celebrated folk hero.
772
00:32:01,853 --> 00:32:03,553
Is buried somewhere in the city,
773
00:32:03,622 --> 00:32:05,333
But I've heard there's
a statue of him around here.
774
00:32:05,357 --> 00:32:08,358
That might be
a little easier to find.
775
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:09,760
Freedom!
776
00:32:09,828 --> 00:32:11,194
William wallace was the guy.
777
00:32:11,262 --> 00:32:13,330
That really wanted
freedom for scotland.
778
00:32:13,398 --> 00:32:17,434
Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.
779
00:32:17,502 --> 00:32:18,746
Hey, do you guys know
where the will...
780
00:32:18,770 --> 00:32:21,171
William wallace, memorial is?
781
00:32:21,173 --> 00:32:22,706
It's just down there on the...
782
00:32:22,774 --> 00:32:24,051
On the next crossroads
down there on the left.
783
00:32:24,075 --> 00:32:25,475
Thank you, sir. Thank you.
784
00:32:27,045 --> 00:32:29,312
He led the scots to battle
in the battle of falkirk.
785
00:32:29,381 --> 00:32:30,847
And the battle of bannockburn.
786
00:32:30,849 --> 00:32:34,117
All right. William wallace...
Is that him?
787
00:32:34,119 --> 00:32:35,719
- Is that it, or no?
- I don't know.
788
00:32:35,787 --> 00:32:37,321
Is it? It says "george" on it.
789
00:32:37,389 --> 00:32:39,790
- George wallace?
- That's the wrong dude.
790
00:32:39,858 --> 00:32:41,625
That's okay. We'll find him.
791
00:32:41,693 --> 00:32:44,527
And we like to,
hail him as a hero.
792
00:32:44,530 --> 00:32:47,965
Probably in the middle
of this courtyard.
793
00:32:48,033 --> 00:32:49,899
Yeah, there you go. Look, look.
794
00:32:49,902 --> 00:32:52,469
He's right there.
No, that's not him.
795
00:32:52,537 --> 00:32:54,504
- Is that him right there?
- Yeah, it's gotta be.
796
00:32:54,572 --> 00:32:56,940
It is that whole sense
of freedom.
797
00:32:57,009 --> 00:32:58,675
That's what we're known for...
"freedom!"
798
00:32:58,744 --> 00:33:00,544
And, I mean, yeah,
I think we were all.
799
00:33:00,612 --> 00:33:01,878
Very proud of "braveheart."
800
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,882
It was a slightly
altered version of fact.
801
00:33:05,951 --> 00:33:07,684
No, wait. Maybe that's him.
802
00:33:07,752 --> 00:33:09,085
- The big one?
- No.
803
00:33:09,088 --> 00:33:11,021
It created a lot of interest
in scotland,
804
00:33:11,089 --> 00:33:12,822
So maybe it's a...
Maybe it's a good thing.
805
00:33:12,825 --> 00:33:14,958
Despite how terrible it is.
806
00:33:15,027 --> 00:33:16,359
That's got to be him.
807
00:33:16,428 --> 00:33:17,894
Yeah, that's him.
808
00:33:17,896 --> 00:33:20,530
Doesn't look anything
like mel gibson.
809
00:33:20,598 --> 00:33:22,365
Wow.
810
00:33:22,434 --> 00:33:24,345
Hey, stand in front of that.
Let me take your picture.
811
00:33:24,369 --> 00:33:25,835
He was put to death.
812
00:33:25,904 --> 00:33:28,005
Solely for his love of liberty.
813
00:33:28,073 --> 00:33:29,306
I'm not gonna lie.
814
00:33:29,374 --> 00:33:31,508
"Braveheart" is a great movie.
815
00:33:31,576 --> 00:33:33,109
And although
william wallace's story.
816
00:33:33,178 --> 00:33:35,245
May have been victim
to hollywood hyperbole...
817
00:33:35,313 --> 00:33:36,679
Cool. I'm hungry.
818
00:33:36,748 --> 00:33:38,125
I'm hungry, too.
All right, let's eat.
819
00:33:38,149 --> 00:33:39,616
I can't help but admire.
820
00:33:39,684 --> 00:33:42,452
His unwavering resolve
for independence.
821
00:33:42,454 --> 00:33:44,387
What do you think of aberdeen?
822
00:33:44,456 --> 00:33:49,259
So far, it's, like, a really
nice mix of old world and new.
823
00:33:49,327 --> 00:33:50,460
Yeah. Weather's rough.
824
00:33:50,462 --> 00:33:52,095
Like, you... you have to have.
825
00:33:52,163 --> 00:33:56,033
A certain constitution
to... to do that, you know?
826
00:33:56,101 --> 00:33:57,600
I don't know
that I would make it.
827
00:33:57,669 --> 00:33:59,402
It's... it seems like
like hardworking,
828
00:33:59,405 --> 00:34:00,737
Good people here.
829
00:34:02,474 --> 00:34:06,976
Did you feel any... Vibrations?
830
00:34:07,045 --> 00:34:08,879
Well, I-I-I felt...
You know, I did.
831
00:34:08,947 --> 00:34:11,915
I got a real, like, very quick,
emotional reaction.
832
00:34:11,983 --> 00:34:13,550
When she said we were in nigg.
833
00:34:13,552 --> 00:34:16,419
"This is nigg bay."
I was like, "whoa, this is.
834
00:34:16,488 --> 00:34:18,955
Where I've seen the writing
on the papers."
835
00:34:18,957 --> 00:34:20,891
From what I've seen
in my research,
836
00:34:20,959 --> 00:34:22,492
This is... I know this is.
837
00:34:22,494 --> 00:34:25,061
At least where they were
for some time.
838
00:34:25,064 --> 00:34:26,229
I don't know. It just...
839
00:34:26,298 --> 00:34:27,831
It just like, quick.
840
00:34:27,833 --> 00:34:30,600
And that's, like,
what I imagined in my head.
841
00:34:30,668 --> 00:34:33,736
Here's to today.
Let's keep going.
842
00:34:33,805 --> 00:34:35,116
Melissa's
great-great-grandfather.
843
00:34:35,140 --> 00:34:36,506
Once called this place home...
844
00:34:36,508 --> 00:34:38,842
Aberdeen archives next. It's on.
845
00:34:38,910 --> 00:34:41,811
And we're off to see what
we can find out about his life.
846
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,048
- You ready?
- Not really.
847
00:34:45,117 --> 00:34:46,983
I don't know
why I'm getting emotional.
848
00:34:46,985 --> 00:34:48,785
It's just kind of crazy
being here.
849
00:34:48,787 --> 00:34:50,920
Okay, let's go do this.
850
00:35:07,739 --> 00:35:10,640
We're heading over
to the aberdeen archives.
851
00:35:10,708 --> 00:35:12,342
They, by the time we get there,
852
00:35:12,410 --> 00:35:15,612
Are... will have pulled
some stuff for me.
853
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,216
After three days of discovering
scotland, this is it,
854
00:35:19,284 --> 00:35:22,185
A chance to finally learn
about alexander campbell,
855
00:35:22,253 --> 00:35:24,621
Melissa's paternal,
great-great-grandfather.
856
00:35:26,324 --> 00:35:29,692
I'm here to, see a historian.
857
00:35:29,761 --> 00:35:32,429
Okay. I'll call upstairs...
858
00:35:32,497 --> 00:35:34,141
Okay. Thank you so much... And
let them know you're here.
859
00:35:34,165 --> 00:35:36,666
Thank you very much.
860
00:35:36,734 --> 00:35:38,245
You were coming here
to see someone today?
861
00:35:38,269 --> 00:35:39,602
Yes. I'll show you upstairs.
862
00:35:39,671 --> 00:35:41,271
Okay.
They're just at the top floor.
863
00:35:41,339 --> 00:35:42,705
All the central records
of the city.
864
00:35:42,708 --> 00:35:44,107
Are locked away
behind these doors.
865
00:35:44,175 --> 00:35:46,443
They go all the way back
to the 12th century.
866
00:35:46,511 --> 00:35:49,212
The oldest, record we have
is a chart.
867
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,159
That was given to the city
by king william the lion.
868
00:35:51,183 --> 00:35:52,615
In the 1180s.
869
00:35:52,684 --> 00:35:54,984
What about the campbells?
870
00:35:54,987 --> 00:35:57,147
How... where do you think
that they might've come from?
871
00:35:57,188 --> 00:36:00,023
It's hard to say how far back
they go and where they go.
872
00:36:00,091 --> 00:36:02,125
It's also the origin
of the name campbell,
873
00:36:02,193 --> 00:36:04,460
Because it's more
of a nickname originally.
874
00:36:04,463 --> 00:36:06,529
The word originally
means "sneery".
875
00:36:06,598 --> 00:36:08,165
"Sneery" like... effectively.
876
00:36:08,233 --> 00:36:09,666
So, like... so, like...
877
00:36:09,734 --> 00:36:11,134
So, you would sneer.
878
00:36:11,202 --> 00:36:12,335
Sneery?
879
00:36:12,337 --> 00:36:13,636
That's my resting face.
880
00:36:13,705 --> 00:36:15,805
Sneery mcbride. Right.
881
00:36:18,042 --> 00:36:20,122
So, that was... it all makes
so much sense right now.
882
00:36:21,713 --> 00:36:25,248
But these are the census returns
for the campbells in 1851.-
883
00:36:25,250 --> 00:36:26,816
Robert. Isabella. James.
884
00:36:26,818 --> 00:36:28,151
Margaret. Alexander.
885
00:36:28,153 --> 00:36:30,253
That's my
great-great-grandfather.
886
00:36:30,321 --> 00:36:32,855
But alexander campbell
is listed as a quarrier,
887
00:36:32,924 --> 00:36:34,157
So he would've had a quarry.
888
00:36:34,225 --> 00:36:37,927
He had one? He had a quarry.
889
00:36:37,930 --> 00:36:41,097
They turn up in a couple of post
office directories, as well.
890
00:36:41,165 --> 00:36:42,565
There he is listed.
891
00:36:42,634 --> 00:36:44,200
Wow. Innkeeper?
892
00:36:44,203 --> 00:36:45,568
Innkeeper.
893
00:36:45,571 --> 00:36:47,571
Now, I've got
a slightly later one here,
894
00:36:47,639 --> 00:36:49,839
But by this point,
he's changed his profession.
895
00:36:49,841 --> 00:36:52,209
Alexander... contractor.
896
00:36:52,277 --> 00:36:53,576
He sounds a little shady.
897
00:36:53,579 --> 00:36:56,846
He's jack of
a great number of trades,
898
00:36:56,914 --> 00:37:02,218
But by the same token,
he kind of never quite achieves.
899
00:37:02,221 --> 00:37:04,921
A kind of prominence in the city
that other people do,
900
00:37:04,990 --> 00:37:07,123
And I'm... I have
a sneaking suspicion that.
901
00:37:07,191 --> 00:37:08,891
That's actually on purpose.
902
00:37:11,196 --> 00:37:14,764
At this point in July 1859,
903
00:37:14,832 --> 00:37:17,601
Alexander campbell
purchases two shares.
904
00:37:17,669 --> 00:37:19,936
Previously, we have
detailed records.
905
00:37:20,005 --> 00:37:21,871
Of what cargoes
people were bringing in.
906
00:37:21,940 --> 00:37:24,674
Contraband rum, or...
So, that might...
907
00:37:24,743 --> 00:37:26,542
What... it might be, like, rum.
908
00:37:26,545 --> 00:37:28,378
It could be.
He could be a rumrunner.
909
00:37:28,981 --> 00:37:32,815
This is for 1879,
and alexander campbell is noted.
910
00:37:32,818 --> 00:37:35,051
As being a proprietor
of ironmonger's court.
911
00:37:35,119 --> 00:37:36,953
This is the last place
where he lived.
912
00:37:36,955 --> 00:37:38,555
What is ironmonger's court?
913
00:37:38,623 --> 00:37:42,225
It's an alleyway that led off
of the main street.
914
00:37:42,293 --> 00:37:44,494
Ironmonger?
Blacksmith, effectively.
915
00:37:44,562 --> 00:37:46,562
There are three flats,
916
00:37:46,565 --> 00:37:51,234
And the third one
is occupied by alexander.
917
00:37:53,504 --> 00:37:55,772
There's a few photographs
that wou... that show.
918
00:37:55,774 --> 00:37:57,407
The neighborhood around there,
919
00:37:57,475 --> 00:37:59,643
Which was one of aberdeen's
most notorious slums.
920
00:37:59,711 --> 00:38:02,679
These are very heavily
subdivided tenements.
921
00:38:02,747 --> 00:38:04,781
So, you get numerous families.
922
00:38:04,849 --> 00:38:07,750
Living in incredibly
cramped conditions.
923
00:38:07,819 --> 00:38:10,687
The town decided to demolish
in the 1920s...
924
00:38:10,755 --> 00:38:14,023
Really? ...Because it was
a public health hazard.
925
00:38:14,092 --> 00:38:16,459
So, this aberdeen, this is
the city as it was then.
926
00:38:16,528 --> 00:38:18,528
That's the house...
That's the house,
927
00:38:18,596 --> 00:38:21,264
Ironmonger's court, where he
would've lived in his last year.
928
00:38:21,266 --> 00:38:22,832
Wow. And it's still there.
929
00:38:22,900 --> 00:38:25,635
Wow. So, it's just...
just north of here.
930
00:38:25,703 --> 00:38:27,603
They demolished
everything around it.
931
00:38:28,874 --> 00:38:30,140
So, when he died,
932
00:38:30,208 --> 00:38:33,009
Did he have
pretty much nothing left?
933
00:38:33,078 --> 00:38:36,980
Um, they don't have
a lot to their name.
934
00:38:37,048 --> 00:38:38,881
This is, like, a great mystery.
935
00:38:38,884 --> 00:38:41,684
It sounds shady as heck
to me... all of it.
936
00:38:41,687 --> 00:38:44,020
This is the inventory.
937
00:38:44,088 --> 00:38:47,023
Of the courtyard
of st. Fittick's at nigg,
938
00:38:47,092 --> 00:38:49,125
Which is where he's buried.
939
00:38:49,193 --> 00:38:50,493
There's a map in this book.
940
00:38:50,562 --> 00:38:52,082
Which should tell you
how to get to it.
941
00:38:52,130 --> 00:38:53,130
Excellent.
942
00:39:03,908 --> 00:39:06,276
- You ready?
- Not really.
943
00:39:06,344 --> 00:39:08,311
I don't know
why I'm getting emotional.
944
00:39:08,379 --> 00:39:10,146
I don't know them.
945
00:39:10,214 --> 00:39:11,981
I know.
946
00:39:11,983 --> 00:39:13,916
It's just kind of crazy
being here.
947
00:39:15,887 --> 00:39:17,987
Okay, let's go do this.
948
00:39:25,497 --> 00:39:27,830
Is this it?
949
00:39:27,899 --> 00:39:29,031
No.
950
00:39:29,100 --> 00:39:31,067
It's like an easter-egg hunt.
951
00:39:31,069 --> 00:39:33,403
Wait.
952
00:39:33,405 --> 00:39:35,705
Yeah, that's it.
953
00:39:35,773 --> 00:39:38,541
"Campbell."
954
00:39:38,610 --> 00:39:40,943
- I don't know why I'm emotional.
- I'm sorry.
955
00:39:40,946 --> 00:39:42,111
No.
956
00:39:57,162 --> 00:40:00,163
Did you get "alexander"
in there anywhere?
957
00:40:00,231 --> 00:40:01,364
Yeah, there you go.
958
00:40:01,366 --> 00:40:04,567
"Alexander." "alexander."
959
00:40:04,636 --> 00:40:06,636
I'm very happy with what I have.
Yeah.
960
00:40:06,704 --> 00:40:09,105
It's great, right?
961
00:40:09,107 --> 00:40:11,641
Ending up here and being able
to give melissa this gift.
962
00:40:11,643 --> 00:40:14,377
Goes beyond everything
I hoped this ride could be.
963
00:40:16,281 --> 00:40:17,580
It isn't often in this life.
964
00:40:17,648 --> 00:40:19,916
That you're able
to show true appreciation.
965
00:40:19,918 --> 00:40:21,584
To someone
you really care about.
966
00:40:21,652 --> 00:40:22,652
We found it.
967
00:40:22,720 --> 00:40:25,121
I know.
968
00:40:25,190 --> 00:40:28,558
And this is an experience
I'll hold onto forever.
969
00:40:33,130 --> 00:40:35,898
The germans have this word,
"fernweh,".
970
00:40:35,967 --> 00:40:38,234
And it's what brought us
and countless others here.
971
00:40:38,302 --> 00:40:39,936
To cure the homesickness felt.
972
00:40:39,938 --> 00:40:42,405
For a place
we've never truly known.
973
00:40:42,473 --> 00:40:44,207
The craziest thing
about this whole thing.
974
00:40:44,275 --> 00:40:47,009
Is we were shooting
"the walking dead,".
975
00:40:47,012 --> 00:40:51,147
Sitting between takes on this
field overlooking this cliff.
976
00:40:51,216 --> 00:40:52,682
Melissa, come here.
977
00:40:52,750 --> 00:40:53,950
And you go, "do you know
what'd be a great idea",
978
00:40:53,952 --> 00:40:55,318
Is to go to scotland."
979
00:40:55,386 --> 00:40:56,897
And I was like,
"that's what we'll do."
980
00:40:56,921 --> 00:40:58,321
And here we are. Here we are.
981
00:40:58,389 --> 00:41:01,791
From that moment,
we're at this moment.
982
00:41:01,859 --> 00:41:03,759
I know. That's pretty rad.
983
00:41:03,762 --> 00:41:05,962
But before we end our trip,
there's one more place
984
00:41:06,030 --> 00:41:07,964
Melissa needs to see...
985
00:41:07,966 --> 00:41:09,966
The last known address
of her ancestor
986
00:41:10,034 --> 00:41:11,835
Alexander campbell,
987
00:41:11,903 --> 00:41:14,504
Which, today, we found out
is still standing.
988
00:41:14,572 --> 00:41:16,706
- Perfect.
- Is this your bar?
989
00:41:16,774 --> 00:41:18,307
It is, yeah, yeah.
990
00:41:18,376 --> 00:41:19,942
What do you know
about this building?
991
00:41:20,011 --> 00:41:26,482
It... it was first used in 1777,
so it's 240 years old.
992
00:41:26,485 --> 00:41:29,318
And it was owned
by the mcbride family.
993
00:41:29,321 --> 00:41:30,720
From the what family?
994
00:41:30,788 --> 00:41:32,388
Mcbride family.
995
00:41:32,390 --> 00:41:34,490
And there's a... there's
a photograph on the wall there.
996
00:41:34,493 --> 00:41:36,792
I just got chills. That's crazy.
997
00:41:36,795 --> 00:41:38,661
Is this like coinkydink
all over the place?
998
00:41:41,733 --> 00:41:43,533
Wha-a-a-a-t? I gotta...
999
00:41:43,601 --> 00:41:46,002
Which one's who? I've gotta
get a picture of that.
1000
00:41:46,004 --> 00:41:47,670
Mcbride... you're
on the end right here.
1001
00:41:47,738 --> 00:41:49,205
I see.
1002
00:41:49,273 --> 00:41:51,007
I-I need another drink.
1003
00:41:51,075 --> 00:41:53,142
I think we hit the nail
on the head.
1004
00:41:53,210 --> 00:41:55,411
Do you know about
next door upstairs?
1005
00:41:55,479 --> 00:41:57,680
I know that there were
flats upstairs.
1006
00:41:57,748 --> 00:42:01,317
On my great-great-grandfather's
death certificate,
1007
00:42:01,385 --> 00:42:03,486
It says this is where
he passed away,
1008
00:42:03,555 --> 00:42:05,321
14 upperkirkgate.
1009
00:42:05,389 --> 00:42:07,223
Would've been right above
the bar, yeah. Yeah.
1010
00:42:07,225 --> 00:42:09,225
Yeah, so the wake
would've been here.
1011
00:42:11,229 --> 00:42:13,195
So they died right above us.
1012
00:42:13,264 --> 00:42:16,499
I think... I think... I-I...
That's crazy.
1013
00:42:16,567 --> 00:42:18,979
But... I mean, we've come this far
and it all leads to this bar.
1014
00:42:19,003 --> 00:42:20,269
And it happened above us.
1015
00:42:20,338 --> 00:42:21,904
I just feel it. I just feel it.
1016
00:42:21,907 --> 00:42:23,105
Yeah, this is the spot.
1017
00:42:25,109 --> 00:42:26,342
Watching you do this has been.
1018
00:42:26,411 --> 00:42:27,777
Really fascinating,
I have to say.
1019
00:42:27,779 --> 00:42:29,512
I've never had the desire
to look it up.
1020
00:42:29,581 --> 00:42:31,247
I've been on my own for so long.
1021
00:42:31,249 --> 00:42:33,082
That I've sort of
pushed it all back.
1022
00:42:33,150 --> 00:42:35,262
It's been... it kinda makes me
wanna do it a little bit now.
1023
00:42:35,286 --> 00:42:36,853
I'm glad we get
to do it together.
1024
00:42:36,921 --> 00:42:38,841
Yeah, I'm glad we did it together.
Unforgettable.
1025
00:42:39,991 --> 00:42:41,391
To alexander.
1026
00:42:41,459 --> 00:42:42,792
Forget not.
1027
00:42:44,563 --> 00:42:45,962
Yeah.
1028
00:42:45,964 --> 00:42:47,897
What I can't understand.
1029
00:42:47,965 --> 00:42:50,232
Is how I'm not
that crazy about whiskey.
1030
00:42:50,301 --> 00:42:51,467
Maybe you're a rum girl.
1031
00:42:51,535 --> 00:42:53,202
From the start,
1032
00:42:53,270 --> 00:42:56,205
I knew this was destined
to be a different kind of ride.
1033
00:42:56,274 --> 00:42:57,640
Being able to take this journey.
1034
00:42:57,708 --> 00:42:59,408
Into the past with melissa.
1035
00:42:59,411 --> 00:43:01,911
Has been
a truly magical experience.
1036
00:43:01,979 --> 00:43:04,213
That we surely will forget not.
