It looks like the young Jamie McCrimmon, his Scottish Laird Colin McLaren, and the Doctor are in for a distasteful hanging from British Redcoats, but the shady Royal Commissioner Grey has other plans for the captured party... A tense moment from a fast-paced and generally exciting first episode to the last purely historical adventure, and a much underrated one: The Highlanders.

Despite a couple of surviving Australian censored clips, The Highlanders still remains missing in its four-part entirety from the BBC Archives, likely never to be recovered. Here's another feature to enjoy on the elusive lost stories...
