UNHOLY ALLIANCE (part
one)
Xavier St Cloud returns - minus one
hand - flouting the rules of the Game by enlisting mortal mercenaries

Next on his list of targets is MacLeod, but even Duncan will be
shocked by news of who's helping St Cloud on his killing spree...

Trivia
| This is the first two-part episode in
Highlander's history. |
| Stacey Travis returns as Renee Delaney in both
the second part of 'Unholy Alliance' (B15) and the
fourth season episode D19, 'Double
Jeopardy'. |
Verdict
A slow-paced episode that's only just beginning to take off when it
ends. Still, it makes a change to see a two-part story padded out with
material in the first episode, rather than the other way round.
