I love this show!

by hamiltonl • 2004-08-29

"I love this show. Compared to all of the trash that's on TV right now, this one is a breath of fresh air. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous. I love it when they show the beautiful views of the loch. This is definitely a place I'd love to live. I think Hector and Killwillie are hilarious together and Molly is simply delightful. Lexie is a real spitfire and Duncan is so sweet and innocent. Golly is quite a man and I adore Archie and can't wait to watch his weekly adventures. I plan on buying this DVD ASAP because I will watch it over and over. Monarch of the Glen is a great serie..."

Tom Baker described his character of Donald MacDonald as "a combination of an old George Clooney with a touch of the ghost of Hamlet's father and a bit of Vanessa Feltz".
