Bonnie Scotland was a flawed film. Despite the title, the action moved to India, and there was a subplot involving a romantic couple being kept apart. Neither storyline was really wrapped up. The film merely - stopped.
02:03 ollie 'skipping' to get in time, exactly what you are taught. The Cambells are coming? Dont know the meaning of this but I would guess the song is about beware the traitors and murderers are coming as opposesed to coming to the rescue. There is a saying in Scotland "Never trust a Campbell" very apt.
@Celtefan The Campbells of Glen Lyon actually fought alongside the Jacobites at the battle of Culloden Moor.The reputation the Campbells have gained over the years isn't entirely justified either. The massacre of Glen Coe wasn't a simply Campbell, McDonald affair and the highland clans had been butchering one another for hundreds of years previous.
@bairns123 You are quite right the said massacre was ordered and planned by the Scottish govt in Edinburgh and the orders were signed by King William himself in London. The regiment used was the Argyl Regiment who's leading officer was a Campbell as were some of the other officers and a small percentage of the men were too. It probably suited central govt to portray it as a clan feud rather than state terrorism!
Cheers for that Bazza. For a while there, I thought that I was the only one who was "Marching to a different tune". Live long; prosper, and stay hairy :)
The tune being played is definitely "The Campbells Are Coming". Not a good rendition of it though and maybe some deviation in part from the traditional tune leads to its being confused with "Gary Owen". Regardless, in 1935 when this movie was produced, it is unlikely that the pipe-bands of the Scottish regiments would have been playing a traditional Irish tune - one which, of course, was adopted about the time of Custer and the Battle of the Little BIg Horn as the US 7th Calvary's marching tune.
@ernstbecker1 Jimmy Finlasin added so much to the Laurel and Hardy movies. Both he and Laurel n' Hardy were often together in Hal Roach comedies. It was clean comedy that always drew "belly laughs" unitil it hurt. I doubt if we could of had better.
How many of you pipers and drummers have found yourselves in this situation during a parade? Oh yes. it's happen to all of us. The dreaded, "You're out of step!"
It's somewhat embarrassing to have to do that little shuffle, hop step!

Did you hear about the bag pipe player that left his bagpipes in his car and forgot to lock it? He got about 3 blocks away and remembered he hadn't locked his car. He went running back to his car and sure enough-----someone had put another set of bagpipes in the car!
How many bagpipe players does it take to eat a possom? 2 ! One to eat the possom and one to watch for cars!

Gonna have to take back my earlier coment. I had a good look at both tunes and have to agree with the Campbell are Coming. Its played bloody awful though.
As a bass drummer in a pipe band, I can honestly say this happened to all marching pipers, drummers or soldiers at one time or another. I thought this was hilarious when I was 7 and now that I'm 57 it's even funnier!
Our PM thinks the tune is Garry Owen, we have members that are always out of step, this really made me laugh, in the beginning I was often doing the little skip step to change feet.
As a Laurel and Hardy fan and as a Scotsman I have to confess that I always thought this a rather pointless scene from one of there less funny films. For those who know the film my favourite scenes are before they leave Scotland and are stuck in a hotel room because Stan burnt Ollie's only pair of "pants".
@Celtefan Actually in the pipe music, 6/8 time if your left foot is on the first beat of the bar you are always good to go. Pipers probably have the easiest time of all staying in step. Drummers too. Then the rest... well they try...lol
@pmbear The most difficult position must be the drum bass one. Everybody expected the required tempo from him, who is walking as a blind man, his way hidden by his drum...
@Celtefan i was a bass drummer for years. I marked the time and the band followed me. the bass drummer is the centre of the band, nothing comes together without him. he is the eyes and ears of the band. take this from me.
I agree! Nothing is more important for the tempo to have a good bass drummer in the band... I experienced to walk in a pipeband lead by a bad bass drummer... never that again!
@Celtefan My wife, as bass drummer in our pipe band, has three TV camera men to her name. In parades, camera operators often position themselves in front of pipe bands thinking we will march around them. My wife didn't. She would knock them on their butts.
is there somewone speeking or riding german? this two guys are something of the best in my youth. every friday in zdf i´ll watcht them. sorry, my english is not so good. but in my youth, laurel and hardy are better vor the young generation, then any thing what would be shown now for ouer childs. greats to you all. god pless your childs.
@MPROPPER1ST Hi! My Grandfather is the first person you see in the movie on the left side...He was in the toughest Scottish regiment at that that time (India,in the 1930's). He must have had a sense of humour to play his bagpipes in such a crazy movie because he was a serious kind of man! Please keep in contact,mpropper1st,and I will show you some humour from archives that may make you laugh until you drop on the floor! ..!
@MrJimmyboy1972 exactly im in the lake Superior Scottish regiment. By now I should hate highland laddie but no, I must really love the bag pipes or something.
@REVAN2338: It is not always that easy, but he is the right frontman and he is always walking correct, even if he doesn't. the rest has to keep his steps. :)
The name of the 6/8 bagpipe march is "Campbells are coming", whereas the other 6/8 tune heard throughout the movie is "Wi' a hundred pipers" (see Laurel & Hardy sweeping the camp!). Cheers
The tune that is being played is "The Cambells are coming". Oh Cambelltown Loch I wish you were whisky is a variation of "The Glendaruel Higlanders" to be found in the Scots Guards book of Pipe music book 1 page 96. It was made famous by Andy Stewart in the early 1960's
This tune is never entered in Cameron tune list as this clan is historically unfriendly with the Campbell. As Frenchmen have Jacobite feelings (so are close to the Cameron) it is the reason why I didnt myself know this tune!
How could anyone dislike this? I just hope they hit that button by mistake.
