See my thread "first attempt at photo posting" and you will see a picture of Plockton where the series was filmed. Whilst on the subject on televison scripting, the words "pot" and "kettle" come to mind.

Touche. I can't argue with you on that point since so much formulaic garbage passes for entertainment around these parts.

Very well said, John!

As for the DVDs: I have had both series I and II for a couple of years - but I've not yet had time to look at them!! I do remember the original transmissions of the programme though and, like Trefor, it was 'Hamish Macbeth' that first brought the talented Robert Carlyle to my attention.

I have not read any of the books but I understand they are now totally out of print here in the UK.

Take care,
Ham.

Excellant series!
