Hamish Macbeth is a Zenith/Skyline Production for BBC SCotland.
Starring Robert Carlyle as Hamish Macbeth.
Produced by Deirdre Keir.
When Jane Wetherby offers Police Constable Hamish Macbeth a 'holiday' at her 'Happy Wanderer' health farm on the isle of Eileencraig, his flagging spirits begin to rise. Thinking that he has finally found the source of some tender, loving care, Hamish is tempted away from his sleepy Highland town of Lochdubh, and his beloved dog Towser.
Unfortunately, the visit doesn't prove to be the holiday Hamish had hoped for. Windswept Eileencraig is inhabited by hostile islanders, more than a few of whom would gladlybe rid of 'the Happy Wanderer' and its proprietor. The company at the health farm is hardly better, for Jane's volatile party includes an ex-husband, an illicit lover, and Morag Todd, an unadulterated snob who criticizes just about everyone and everything. And when Morag is found lying at the foot of a cliff with a broken neck, no one is too broken-up - and Hamish must enliven his distinctively sleepy style of policing in order to solve the death of a snob.
