for MacLeod in the process...

Flashbacks
 | 1940, London,
England
MacLeod may or may not be in central London working for British
Intelligence, but he strikes up a passionate relationship with
American journalist Diane Terrin, whose zest for danger in a quest
to bring the plight of Blighty to the Yanks threatens to cut short a
life she's mapping out with a more cautious Duncan. |
Other Immortals
 | Richie |
Trivia
 | This episode marks Lisa Howard's swansong as Anne
Lindsey. |
 | Duncan Fraser makes his third appearance - all as
different mortal characters - in Highlander. His first was as the
SWAT commander in A6 , 'Bad Day in
Building A', and his second was as Julia Renquist's father in
C8, 'Obsession'. |
 | Beverley Elliott also returns as a different
character - she originally played a Supervisor in
B14, 'Unholy Alliance, part one'. |
Verdict
After a strong fourth season so far, Highlander comes a cropper with
two rushed storylines suffering from a lack of Immortals and being
crammed into a single episode. A powerful ending provides the only
real moment of note. C
