UNUSUAL SUSPECTS
It's 1929, and Hugh Fitzcairn is enjoying the life of a manor lord. He
has good friends, a beautiful wife, trusted servants - until one of
his nearest and dearest "murders" him. He calls in his old friend,
Duncan MacLeod, to help him uncover his own murderer - before more
bodies start piling up.

Trivia
 | This was the second of two episodes of
Highlander to be set entirely as a flashback (the first was
E16, 'The Stone of Scone'). |
 | The late Nicholas Clay, who sadly died recently,
played Lancelot in the 1981 film Excalibur (opposite Nigel
Terry, who played Piton in A19,
'Eye of the Beholder'). |
Verdict
You can always rely on later Fitzcairn episodes to lighten the mood,
and boy did Highlander's sixth season need a lift. Not perfect,
but good fun nevertheless. B+
