Hamish MacBeth

Hamish MacBeth is an offbeat "whodunnit" series, spiced with laconic wit and outrageous black comedy. Hamish is a young policeman, who has a shrewd knack of solving the bizarre cases that come his way. His beat is the apparently sleepy village of Lochdubh in the breathtaking scenery of the Scottish Highlands. Starring Robert Carlyle (The Full Monty, Once Upon a Time, Trainspotting).

49m 37s

Hamish is branded a devil by a religious group who claim that Lochdubh is the new Gomorrah. His initial disdain turns to concern for head of the Church of the Stony Path, Malachi MacBean, whose behavior continues to become more erratic.
