    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      James Macleane (1711-1750) was the son of a Scottish parson, and became known as "Gentleman Highwayman" in partnership with his good friend Will Plunkett (also a Scotsman). Plunkett really was an apothecary, although it was Macleane's wife who had died. Macleane was an inveterate dandy, and this caused him to make the fatal mistake of wearing a set of stolen waistcoats into the shop of the tailor who made them, leading to his arrest and subsequent hanging in November 1750.
    • Goofs
      While there was an Earl of Rochester extant in 1748, he would have been 76 years old, and was certainly not known as a bisexual profligate. The character seems to be based upon John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester who lived during the reign of Charles II and died in 1680.
    • Quotes
      • Lord Rochester: No, the new world is too far. Too big. Too primitive. No, no, my place is here... corrupting the young.
    • Crazy credits
      The person in charge of overseeing the duel between Chance and Plunkett is listed as the "Dual Referee".
