Wee Jock's Lament

[gdwx33]

This is so sad... I have a westie too and I'd be totally devastated when she dies :(

[ChazsmateIII]

AS man and his dog; the only true friendship there is. One will let the other down but once.

[tygersofpantang]

This was my favourit of all the H McB episodes. Haunting and eerie. Great stuff.

[dkfelix]

They show this episode among others in the Summer of 2010 on a national danish TV-station. I loved especially this episode.

[showmevoodoo]

I love this sad scene. =(

I'm glad you uploaded it to YouTube!

[haunopauno]

I am 46 years old, and seen hundreds, if not thousands of tv-serieses. Why Hamish MacBeth comes closest to my heart, I don't know. But it does.

[dkfelix]

We could just see this episode today (Nov. !st 2010) on danish television.

[poltallach]

I can't watch this without my heart breaking. We decided on a Westie after watching Wee Jock on Hamish MacBeth many years ago. Wee Angus passed away earlier this year and I watch this episode with even more anguish as it rings true.

[davidgrahamscott]

@poltallach Hope you get another wee Angus. My thoughts are with you.

[TheSarahDalton]

TV John also played Geordie in Monarch of the Glen

[gradgurl2007]

I loved this episode. Thanks for posting.

[thalkettoth]

[freacls]

[leonisregis]

Would anyone knowing the title of this bagpipe tune please let the rest of us know? It isn't apparent from the credits...

[banjoman1988]

[leonisregis]

Thank you!

I've never read the books and I'm currently watching this series and absolutely loving it, just wanted to ask, would the books be wasted on me after I've watched a lot of this on television format?

[DoomHippie]

to the both of you,

Both th books and the TV series are completely different. Both good, but the only Character that appears in both the Books and the Series is Hamish.

Personally, I like the series better, purely because of TV John.

[vivaissy]

too sad!!

RIP Wee Jock...we love you!!

[freacls]

RIP wee Jock ill always love you

[Donnybrook10]

That IS NOT Sine Bhan...not even close.

[maomikimirai]

I mean JKC's information about stock registration.

In "Wandering Shadow" (a plot) in "The Anger of Haruhi Suzumiya" (a Japanese light novel, vol.8), a westie named Rousseau appears.

[maomikimirai]

"Destiny - Part 2"(Season 3, #19-2) was televised today (by a Tokyo tv station)... oh, TV John, oh no (sob)...

[lawscottie]

thats it then ... pity it ended like that ... but wee jock and co live on !

any westies going around Tokyo ? I never saw any when I was there ..

[maomikimirai]

You have been in Japan(*^_^*)

I have once spent about 2 weeks in England, but never been in Scotland.

Westie is popular among Japanese dog lovers.

According to Japan Kennel Club (JKC) westie has been ranking around 25th (out of about 150 species) in the past decade, with yorkshire terrier around 5th and welsh corgi pembroke around 10th.

[freacls]

it was becouse of wee Jock i fell in love with the westie breed now i have my own wee westie called Bonnie but i always loved wee jock i wanted to own him as a kid

[thalkettoth]

the best show i have ever seen. beautiful music, creative writing, lovable characters. Its near perfect. I really wish it lasted more than three seasons...

[maomikimirai]

Jock is so adorable!

A Tokyo local station has been televising this drama since this summer and I have become a fan of this.

Are the first and second Jock one same westie?

[lawscottie]

Yes I think so !

[TwilightWillowAlice]

i miss you wee jock!! :'(

[wgaule]

Och we de noo, dinna ken, ooh the haggis, aye. It's all a bit Scottish aroond here.

[wxpm]

play something sad for wee jock !!

[batbreath77]

This was one of the best episodes from the series. Fantastic show.

[JeffreyP506]

I just started reading the Macbeth books here in the states and I think they're grand. I was thinking of picking up DVDs of the show, but it seem's like Hamish Macbeth is the only charactor by name that carries over from the books. My question is do you get the same feel for the story with this show that you get with the novels?

[nishikataeiga]

I've never read the books, but I fell in love with this series ten years ago and was heartbroken when it ended. The acting is super and the location is beautiful.

[PascalePascal]

Ditto all your comments. I've just finished my 3rd book and really want to see the series but why change Elspeth's name?

[chintzgirl]

Maybe, but it's exactly the same tune as

Sine Bhane. I'm still sticking with it :]

[benlu123]

I still miss this gentle series..wonderful stuff.

[rons0606]

thanks for the information,i'll look for that cd.

[Valonaren]

can't the dog walk by it's self?????

[chintzgirl]

Hello,

If this is meant to be an actual question. He's holding a little puppy. Wee Jock in the

Title was killed. That's his grave where he's

being piped to the great beyond.

[PNerves]

Wee Jock II

[rons0606]

anyone know the name of the song?

[chintzgirl]

Hello,

The name of the tune played is called Sine

Bhan [Fair Jean in English] There is a beautiful version on William McCallum's CD

Pipers of Distinction.

[colonelk]

Sorry to disagree, but its' actually two songs: Loch Rannoch, and Loch Duich. They're usually played together since they're similar and compliment each other.
