First broadcast: Feb 2014.
In 2009, art detective Dr Bendor Grosvenor caused a national scandal by proving that the Scottish National Portrait Gallery's iconic portrait of Bonnie Prince Charlie, the rebel Stuart who almost seized power in 1745, was not in fact him. Keen to make amends, and suspecting that a long-lost portrait of the prince by one of Scotland's greatest artists, Allan Ramsay, might still survive, Bendor decides to retrace Charles' journey in the hope of unravelling one of the greatest mysteries in British art.

"Yes we have four or five Ramsey's..." Gotta love the classy older lady. Bonnie Prince Charlie hiding in the hallway all these years. That's an hour I'm glad to have spent learning something about Scottish/British history.

why are people so interested in criticising Bendor?! I don't understand, concentrate on his knowledge and passion for what he loves!

I wonder how much time it would have taken to paint a portrait. Would the person painted for be able to stand that long? And what about kids in the portrait?

Often, a costume mannequin was setup and still life of props. The Artist would do several sketch sessions of hands and face They would setup the base of the painting & do the portrait for a shorter sitting

The lady who owns the portrait did not seem all that excited about it. Perhaps aristocrats are above excitement--more's the pity for them. The fitting ending to this story would have been for her to donate the painting to the Scottish National Gallery, instead of letting it hang hidden away in a dark hallway. It also appears to be in serious need of restoration. Who am I ... I'm just saying ... UPDATE: I see that the Scottish National Gallery does now own this painting. It was not given to them. The price was over 1,000,000 Euros. Glad to see that the public can now enjoy it!

Maybe your looking in the wrong country. My Dad used to tell me stories of what his grandparents passed down and so on.. My great grandmother is a Cameron from this area. It shows my grandmother is extenct lol she move to the US, Utah of all places. The Donald superceded over the lands there. I know they took portraits when the traivled here. And the LDS historical center might have what your after. The LDS leaders have ways of obtaining family assets that they don't talk about.. This is in Salt Lake City, Utah. Hope this helps. Contact BYU art historical center as well.

Wrong - Alexander II marched an army down to dover and unsurprisingly was not met by french reinforcments that were promised, therefore it was not the first time a Scottish army had been that far south.
