this was a real thriller, it even has a decapitation scene! It is filmed in Scotland mainly as far as I can remember, and has some really terrific acting and dialogue.
It is about a fugitive from I believe some terrorist gang who hides out up there, I cannot remember too much as it was so many years ago, just that episode 1 ends with a severed head turning up on someone's mantelpiece!!!
Another show the BBC needs to release on DVD.
They must be crazy not to!!!! It came out in 1982/1983 when the BBC Drama was putting out batches of good thriller serials, which made it the best TV station in the world, to this day!
