[Facts] Re: Thank you, both of you. (m)
in reply to a message by Charlie Blue
It's a long time since I saw the film but Hollywood directors aren't always that careful about checking facts and I would guess it was just supposed to have a general medieval feel to it rather than specifically Scottish or even Celtic.
Wales may be at the opposite end of the country but Welsh and Gaelic are both Celtic languages and have a common root. (Welsh is what's called 'P' Celtic, whereas Gaelic is 'Q' Celtic).

I looked it up on Wikipedia and it says, that the movie takes place (I copy and pasted here) in England, A.D. 932. I don't know what happened then in English history, as well as how the inviroment were, since I'm Danish and only knows to the history/inviroment around here at that time.
