I've been glued to the screen literally watching the saga evolve at Glenbogle, with its endearing cast of characters; so much in fact, that you fall in love with almost every one of them and can't wait to see what happens next in their lives. It is sad when they move on, but such is life, isn't it? You miss them dearly and wish you could know more about them, or at least have them come back for a visit like Duncan did in Season 7, though he was literally down the road in Glasgow, whereas the others were off in New Zealand somewhere and couldn't make it back so easily. Uncle Donald is an amazing character, you can tell he was an Elizabethan actor or something, and Ewan, what an accent, what wit and what a great character. All of them are so special. I love the values expressed through the show: honesty, faithfulness, character, faith, friendship,hard work, dependability, and above all forgiveness and reconciliation. I love how the themes are developed and I love the beautiful Scottish scenery. One of my family surnames is Douglas, on my maternal grandmother's side, and something about this show resonates deep within me. I can't explain it, only to say that the producers and directors and script writers have a solid grasp of wholesome moral values, human nature and LOVE, profound love and commitment: that miraculous thing that makes the world go around. The ebb and flow of lives and daily joys and sorrows and challenges we all face touched me deeply as well. We are such a workaholic society and it seems we live part of our lives vicariously through these endearing characters, all couched in a marvelous setting of the Scottish highlands and that amazing estate with its history and tradition. Thank you for giving us Monarch of the Glen, best wishes and success now and always. From Georgia, USA, a fan.
