CGiii Comment

What happened?

Did the money run out?

Did the ideas dry up? Because...just when the spookiness starts, it ends!

Look...the Scottish tourist board ain't gonna be liking this mismanaged affair...there's no friendly Scottish folk to be found anywhere in these hills and glens...and, that tartan 'tammie' with ginger trim...not a good idea. Alas, the film was devoid of good ideas!

Sheila Hancock's accent...what was she thinking...that accent, this film...did she just happen to be in the neighbourhood filming Edie at the time?!?

Quids in...quid pro quo!
