Season Two
The Watchers
Complete with new titles and a different narration to
open it, the programme returns with the conclusion of last season's
cliffhanger ending. MacLeod meets Joe Dawson, a Watcher who has been
following his exploits and travels for fifteen years. The Watchers belong to a
secret organisation which has existed for centuries. They know all about the
immortals and the Quickening, but some of their number, under Horton, have
gone rogue and see the immortals as a threat to the continued freedom of
ordinary Mankind, and plan to stop them. It was Horton who murdered Darius,
and very nearly FitzCann and MacLeod, too. And now, as the trail leads Mac,
Tessa and Richie back to their old home in the US, a showdown between the
evil Horton and Duncan MacLeod is inevitable. Afterwards, the real Watchers
vanish, leaving no trace behind. But they are still watching...
