On 29th March 1298 William Wallace was knighted and officially made "Guardian of Scotland".

The previous September Wallace and Andrew de Moray achieved a stunning victory at the Battle of Stirling Bridge. The English left with 5,000 dead on the field, including their despised treasurer, Hugh Cressingham, whose flayed skin was said to have been taken as a trophy of victory and to make a belt for Wallace's sword. The Scots suffered one significant casualty,

Andrew de Moray , who was badly wounded and died two months later.

A lot of the detail of this has been lost i time but it is said that the ceremony took place in front of gathered nobles and clergy in the Kirk o’ the Forest, in Selkirk. Wallace was named "Commander of the Army of the Kingdom of Scotland", knighted and made Guardian of Scotland in Balliol's name at the forest kirk, at either Selkirk or Carluke.

Balliol had been humiliated in 1296 when he signed the first treaty of alliance with the French, Edward I had torn the Royal insignia from his clothing earning him the cruel nickname Tomb Tabard, meaning empty coat, but many, Wallace included, still saw him as the rightful King.

It was a remarkable achievement for a mere knight to hold power over the nobles of Scotland. In a medieval world obsessed with hierarchy, Wallace's extraordinary military success catapulted him to the top of the social ladder.

He now guided Scottish policy. Letters were dispatched to Europe proclaiming Scotland's renewed independence and he managed to obtain from the Papacy the appointment of the patriotic Bishop Lamberton to the vacant Bishopric of St Andrews.

Militarily he took the war into the north of England, raiding around Newcastle and wreaking havoc across the north. Contemporary English chroniclers accused him of atrocities, some no doubt warranted, however, in Wallace's eyes the war, since its beginning, by the English, had been marked by brutality and butchery.

The English nobility had been on the edge of civil war with Edward I. They were disgruntled over his wars in France and Scotland, however, faced with the humiliating defeat by the Scots at Stirling Bridge, they united behind him in time for the Battle of Falkirk.

Unfortunately Wallace's army at Falkirk was soundly beaten that July and Scotland fell under Longshanks rule, Sir William Wallace resigned as Guardian and was now the most wanted man in Scotland.

The site where Wallace was made Guardian has long gone, but a geophysics study in 2016 carried out within the ruins of the 18th century Auld Kirk was expected to show traces of its 16th century predecessor. Instead, it revealed the remains of a medieval chapel, pinpointing the spot where Wallace was honoured.

The first pic is from a 1935 pageant at Selkirk reenacting the event, the second is a plaque at Kirk O' The Forest, for all those from the U.S in the Murray aisle of the present building, lie the maternal ancestors of Franklin D Roosevelt the 32nd President

Shooting days and Critical reflection

Shooting on March 23rd, 24th and 26th 2023.

Day 1

After the amount of preparation and organisation I had gone through before the shoot, I was not expecting it to go as disastrously as it did on day 1. We had multiple logistical issues in the morning such as no risk assessment which meant no equipment. Luckily, we had a few of our own stuff but not enough for a professional looking film to be shot with. We also did not have access to the location as the host was not responding to our messages. This was super stressful as we were already on our way to Carluke, and so were the actors. Instead, we had to take cover in a coffee shop for 2 hours waiting on these problems to be solved back in edinburgh. Upon meeting the actors, they seemed quite relieved to have the time to go over their lines, especially Joseph, who was cast as Derek. Our original actor for Derek had dropped out a couple of days before, and Joseph agreed to help us out with a few days notice, therefore hadn’t had a chance to look over the lines. As myself and Eugenia went through the script with the actors, Duncan was sorting out some lighting plans and shot types in specific relation to the set, which he had not seen before. We decided that in light of how things played out that day, we would use the time we have with the actors (and location, once we had it) to practice blocking and set ups. It actually ended up being a really useful day, ensuring that the rest of the shoot went smoothly. It did mean, however, we needed to reschedule another day of shooting with the actors. We wanted to get it done as soon as possible so chose the following Sunday, where we were lucky enough to have the availability of both the actors, but unlucky that we only had half the crew. It was still manageable though. 

Day 2

Day 2 went incredibly smoothly, like it was too good to be true. This was definitely due to the practice we had had the day before. Finally with the proper equipment and access to the location, we were ready to go. We weren’t pushed for time too much, and got everything that we needed to shoot that day done. We had set up the production design the day before, placing the props where they needed to be and tidying up elements of the household which we didn’t need in the shots, so we got shooting very quickly in the morning. Each shot was short and didn’t have too many lines, so it was easy for the actors to memorise therefore we didn’t go overboard with the takes. We had Ashleigh taking camera and sound notes and Eugenia doubling as first AD (although in the equipment issue we never got a clapperboard so had to make do with a fake one) so everyone was super busy on set. We ordered the shots by whichever room or time of day it was set in the script, so there wouldn’t be continuity issues. 

Day 3

The Sunday was the extra day we had on location, and with half the crew it was slightly more stressful. I had to take on the roles of first AD, producer and script superviser, as well as directing so I had a lot on my plate. Duncan and Matthew were both great with getting on with cinematography and sound, and I couldn’t be more grateful to the actors for agreeing to join us on the third day. We unfortunately didn’t have a tripod this day therefore it was difficult for Duncan to keep the camera still, resulting in the majority of the footage we shot this day being handheld, even where we didn’t want it to be. I also changed one of the set ups last minute, which thankfully Duncan handled well because I messed up his organised plan! In the kitchen scene I suggested we use a pan instead of a static shot to integrate a bit more camera movement and break up the scenes. This is also a pivotal point in the film so I wanted it to be one of the best scenes. When we called a wrap I think it was very relieving since it was quite stressful and today we were pushed for time. We had to get Chris, who played Andrew, back to edinburgh in time for an audition so had to leave early. But overall, I am pleased with the coverage we got. 

Post production

Once we had transferred the files over to Ashleigh, it was up to her to get the shots on the timeline and reach picture lock. I was surprised at how fast she was able to edit, and was getting rough cuts in no time. We stayed close in contact as she was constantly asking for feedback and making changes, although overall I was pretty happy with what she had achieved. Some of the changes we made were:

- Adding titles for the date. We thought this would be a good idea as it would be as though Andrew was documenting his memories as they were happening - like chapters of his book.

- Removing the montage sequence we shot. It didn’t look good and the changes in each shot were too minor for them to be noticed as days passing. It was also too distracting with the titles. 

- Switching around some of the scenes to correspond with the voiceover sequences. 

Once we had picture lock, we handed the file over to Matthew to begin sound designing, and Duncan to work on the colour grade. Matthew’s job was mainly adding in voiceovers and cleaning up dialogue. We also added in some extra sound effects, all which he had recorded on set so there was no need for a foley session. One of the final decisions we made for the sound was to add in some diegetic music in Andrew’s office - simply to add to his character and give the room some life. We debated adding a score but found it difficult finding the right music and where to put it without it sounding cheesy. We also found that in some places, the silence was more powerful. 

For the colour grade, Duncan and I decided to up the contrast to accentuate the dramatic lighting, and also make the scenes warmer to give the film a homely mood. This is to add to the aesthetic of the film, making it look professional and of high quality. 

The Critique

Overall, I was pretty happy with the feedback we were given. Some things they picked up on included:

- Good location

- Slightly confusing timeline - dates don’t help

- The handheld shots were too random and inconsistent

- Horizons were off

- Could use some close ups for more emotional parts of the film

- Enjoyment of the simplicity overall

- Colour grade looks good, but higher contrast needed

- Fades between scenes don’t work, use that time to establish place or relationship.

I think this feedback is really useful in terms of what we could have done differently. Most of it we did consider, such as not using the fades - but in my opinion, without them, the pacing was too quick. This shows that instead, we could have used close ups to linger on moments for longer, slowing the pace down and accentuating the emotion. We were aware of the dodgy filming but this is due to the logistical issues which we could have avoided, but were unlucky. 

In my opinion, we made a solid film that I am proud of and, with a few adjustments and a bit of luck, could potentially get into some festivals.

William Angus was born 28th February 1888 at Polkemmet Rows, Cappers, Armadale.

Note some sources say this brave man was born in Carlulke, others give Armadale, he certainly spent a large chunk of his life in South Lanarkshire town. where a commemorative stone was unveiled in his honour in 2015.

On leaving school Angus worked in the nearby coal mines before earning a modest living as a footballer at several clubs, 1914 he was with Wishaw Thistle when war broke out and as a member of local Carluke Territorial battalion of the Highland Light Infantry, he was mobilised immediately.

William Angus was transferred to the 8th Royal Scots, the first Territorial battalion to join the Expeditionary Force. 8th Royal Scots had suffered a great many casualties and were in urgent need of replacements. He was serving as a lance-corporal in this battalion when the following deed took place for which he was awarded the Victoria Cross.

On 12th June 1915 at Givenchy-lès-la-Bassée, France Lance-Corporal Angus voluntarily left his trench to rescue a wounded officer, fellow Carluke man Lieutenant James Martin, who was lying within a few yards of the enemy’s position and had been injured by a mine. To do this he had to travel through 64 metres in no-man’s land under heavy bomb and rifle fire, and received about 40 wounds, some of them being very serious, including the loss of his left eye, losing part of his foot and calf. His commanding officer said there had been no braver deed in the history of the army.

When asked why he had risked death to carry out such a mercy mission, he replied:

“I have to go back to Carluke. I cannot return if I left someone from Carluke to die here.”

40 wounds, can you imagine that?!

Angus was awarded the VC for his bravery in August that year at Buckingham Palace, when the King commented on his 40 injuries, Angus was said to have answered “Aye, sir, but only 13 were serious.”.

Due to his injuries he was no longer fit for active duty and was transferred to Cameronians on recruitment duties and promoted to Sergeant. He was invalided out of the Army in 1917 and started a haulage business, he later became president of Carluke Rovers, where he was known simply as “The VC”., a position he held until his death. Each year of his life, he received a telegram of thanks from the family of the man he rescued.

William Angus VC died just two days after the 44th anniversary of his brave deed. His last annual telegram of thanks from the Martin family was delivered to him in hospital.

William Angus' medals on display at the National War Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh Castle.
