Thursday Feb 25, 2021
There can be only one! Or can there? This week on The Swally we have a look at the 1986 classic 'Highlander' (although there is some debate as to whether this qualifies as a 'Scottish' film).
Starring Christopher Lambert, Clancy Brown and Sir Sean Connery, 'Highlander' tells the story of Connor MacLeod, an immortal swordsman fighting in The Gathering for The Prize.
We also discuss what you can Katsu in a Curry, meet a picture framer who likes hiding in alcoves and talk about a career criminal with a liking for Gekko's.
