Blood of Kings: A Highlander Podcast: Episode 097: THE CULLODEN TRILOGY - PART 2: Through a Glass Darkly / The Outlander Parallel.
One of the most powerful aspects of the Highlander TV series, are the flashbacks that showcase the early adventures of Duncan, his fiends, and his enemies. As fans, we especially love the flashbacks for the historical impact it had on the immortals that experienced it first hand. One of the most important moment's in Scottish history is the rise of the Jacobite rebellion and their defeat at the Battle of Culloden, that took place north east of Inverness Scotland, on April 16th, 1746.
- Three pivotal and fan favorite episodes of the Highlander TV series centered their flash back stories around the Battle of Culloden. Your Blood of Kings Highlander Podcast hosts Kevin and Norman call these three episodes, "THE CULLODEN TRILOGY". In the first episode of The Culloden Trilogy Kevin and Norman will discuss the Highlander TV episode THROUGH A GLASS DARKLY, and the important subplot history that episode had on the events of The Battle of Culloden.
