    But back on topic, I watched episode 2 last evening.
    Sorry, but I have to disagree. The wearing of tartan was not banned. Highland clothes and specifically some tartan clothes but not all.

    I think it's the time, again, we have to mention, that plaid is used differently in the UK and across the pond.
    The plaid refers to the great kilt, not tartan fabric.

    At least that was my understanding and it's one of the problems in intercontinental discussions that lead and have lead to arguements on this forum.

    By the way, I enjoy the series very much.
