NOT TO BE
Liam O'Rourke still holds all the cards, but Duncan's too busy sorting
out a crisis of his own - one which could ultimately cost him his
life.

taken in by Kronos. |

Trivia
 | Martin McDougall guest starred in a second-season
episode of the BBC series Bugs. |
 | In an alternate universe where Duncan doesn't
exist, Tessa is trapped in a loveless marriage, Horton has twisted
the Watchers to his will, Joe is a drunken bum, Richie is unaware of
who he really is, and Methos has been taken in by Kronos after
nearly being caught by Horton... |
 | The episode ends with a superb five-minute homage
to the entire series. Pity my video recorder fouled up at this
point. |
Verdict
It's hard to be too churlish about this stunning episode, which ends
the series on a real high after a distinctly lacklustre final season.
But, be over-critical I shall - it still drags a bit in places, but at
least Duncan looks vaguely interested to be there.
