Five stars not enough... - By: , 21 Nov 2000
"The Great Lochdubh Salt Robbery" sets the scene & establishes the characters for this wonderful TV series. I'm a great fan of the MC Beaton mysteries & admittedly the TV series bears little resemblance to the books, but this shouldn't deter anyone from the enjoyment of a series that gives new meaning to the word "quirky". The combination of superb writing, great acting & breath-taking scenery add up to something not to be missed. Thanks to BBC America, the series is gaining many new fans in the US & my hope is that the BBC will release the entire series on video soon - hopefully in the NTSC format as well as PAL.
A great introduction to a series which has it all. - By: , 02 Oct 2000
Beaton's series comes to life on the screen, with characters that are far too easy to become attached to. The Highland Scots' wit & endulgence in a slower pace of life sets the stage for The Great Lochedubh Salt Robbery - a tale that introduces viewers to the series & to characters that like a good book you can't tear yourself away from. Through both episodes, there are moments that have you laughing aloud, watching in awe & even near tears - a true classic of television. And it's impossible to make too much of the stunning west Highland scenery that is the backdrop for Hamish Macbeth. ...
