Being a Gael the series was sweet and sour to me. The program itself is wonderful. Those who enjoy the good times and the bad in this glen full of many "characters" will appreciate this grand collection. The sour is that this scene is too real for many of us, with our own Clan Chiefs being raised in areas outside the West Highlands and Islands and not fully caring about those locals who choose a life in their family's home areas. The wonderful thing for me is that the "big house" is still a part of this non existent MacDonald family and Clan, and that poor Archie, with all his faults truly cares...the only soil my own Chiefs own today in Appin is the soil they are buried in and I think of it often. Cheers to you Archie.
