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. [The difference in age between characters and the actors who play them are simply choices of the director and casting agents. There's no mistake here.]

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. [The difference in age between characters and the actors who play them are simply choices of the director and casting agents. There's no mistake here.]

Whenever Montrose appears the soundtrack plays the (irritating) tune to a song called "Bonny Dundee". I assume the film-makers thought there was some connection between the Earls/Dukes of Montrose (whose family name was Graham), and John Graham, "Bonny Dundee" (killed 1689). There wasn't. [Maybe, but we don't know for sure. It might have been used for a completely different reason.]
