Episode 2 - Medieval Square Garden

08/04/21 • 20 min

In the second episode of Another Time, MacLeod! (02:30-04:56), Robs Wallis and Daniel delve into the opening scene of Highlander, featuring a fantastic, potentially lethal(?!) Skycam shot, an introduction to our brooding, myopic hero, and lots of wonderful extras.

NOTE: In all our excitement, we forgot to mention that the scene was shot at Meadowlands Arena in New Jersey, rather than the actual Madison Square Garden.
