I greatly enjoyed Monarch of the Glen when it aired on PBS. Unfortunately I didn't see the whole series, but found it avaliable on blockbuster, thus its now in my queue!

Yes, the book is quite dark as well. Very Old-World fairy-tale-esque. I will have to try out the movie.

For any who have not seen Dear Frankie, it is well worth the 2 hours out of your life.

No problem...I'm just full of useless information

I'm a little surprised by these references to appearances by Finlay Currie between 1971 and 1995 - he died in 1968.

I know. I make joke. Finlay Currie appeared in several of the pics I mentioned above; so, I exaggerated to make that point. BTW, I liked his appearances.
