The Young Jacobites is a 1960 British children's drama film serial directed by John Reeve and starring Robert Haviland, Francesca Annis and Jeremy Bulloch.
"Over the Threshold" The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Rather more adult in presentation than usual, this children's adventure serial is full of well-constructed excitement, and a spirit of adventure is evoked by admirable use of the Skye landscape and locations.
The scale is also more lavish than in many serials, with a certain amount of genuine period atmosphere.
The children are convincing in costume, the chase sequences amongst the Scottish mountains and loch-sides have sharp and credible suspense angles, and the photography is good.
The comic soldier episodes are the one weak element, overlong and tending towards caricature, whereas the rest of the acting and writing is natural, unselfconscious and free of any temptation to impose Scotland too strongly.
