The Crow Road (1996)
8/10
Very good, slightly underwhelmed by the ending.

I watched the lot, interspersed with 6 hours sleep in my bed with the flu. I started watching the second half as soon as I got up.

Great set of actors, well acted, fantastic scenery and very mid-1990's. Supergran, Doctor Who, May "Keeps the Post Office" Morrison, Bob fae Granton Star, Dougray Scott, Paul Young and the unsinkable Bill Paterson....and a couple of hot chicks in Verity and Ash.

Gripping stuff although a bit disgruntled that Rory did not ride in on his bike at the end, but perhaps that is the point and how I'm supposed to feel.

Glad prentice didn't get Verity....he didn't deserve her.

Better than most of the manufactured guff that is trundled out these days.....don't know how I missed it at the time of broadcast, have not read the books.

It lingers with you this one.....will definitely rewatch it in the future, but not too often, it deserves long waits between watching.
