Other: In the scene around the camp fire, Rob Roy can be clearly seen with with plasters on his hand.

Continuity: Towards the end, as Rob Roy is negotiating the duel, watch his hands - they switch from his sides to in front of him 2 or 3 times in different shots. Submitted by Jon Sandys

Factual error: James Graham, 4th Marquess of Montrose, became 1st Duke of Montrose in 1707, six years before the film is set, although the film refers to him throughout as a Marquess. He was also only 31 at the time; John Hurt was 55.

Factual error: John Campbell, 2nd Duke of Argyll was 33 at the time the film is set; Andrew Keir, at 69, was more than twice the age of the character he played.

Factual error: At one point, Rob Roy refers to the Duke of Argyll as "Your Lordship". Dukes are only ever referred to as "Your Grace" and he is addressed correctly (by Rob Roy and others) throughout the rest of the film.

Factual error: When the English raid Rob's farm and shoot and kill the cattle, the cattle fall over on their side like toys. Four legged animals shot like that collapse straight down as their legs fail under them.

Other: Halfway in the first fight scene, Montrose "confesses" to Argyll about his weariness, as the POV changes there is a heavy blurry skip at the top of the screen.

Factual error: Rob Roy is asked by Montrose to help frame Argyll as a Jacobite. This is the sort of thing the highland aristocracy did all the time, but no-one would have tried to frame the Duke of Argyll. He was the government's main man in the highlands, to whom the framers brought their (real or fake) evidence against their rivals.
