Favourite Hamish : West Coast Story(1) Isobel Pulls it Off(2) and Destiny II(3)
Age : 36
Location : Northbridge, Sydney, Australia
Occupation : MD of a lobbying and financial communications company based in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and headquartered in New York
Favourite TV shows: Pie in the Sky, Heartbeat and Ballykissangel
Favourite Hamish : sounds a bit morbid - when wee Jock passes into the next life.
Age : 35
Location : Librarian
Occupation : Phoenix, Arizona
Favourite TV shows: I've not seen any of the Hamish episodes and have become resigned that they will probably never be shown on TV in America because Hamish smokes DOPE!!! And we all know good people do not use drugs. So I'm looking for videos. I'm the one who saw them in a catalog and then lost the catalog. On the other hand I've read all the Hamish books, love them, and wait impatiently for the next one in the series. (Due in July or August). I almost talked someone out of an advanced reading copy of Death of a Dentist, but she wouldn't give it up.Ok-my favorite TV shows: The Pretender-gotta love Miss Parker, she is SO bad.Captain Simian and the Space Monkeys-(Sunday morning cartoon with mycoffee and bagels, nobody talks while captain simian is on). Otherwise, not to much tv other than the occasional episode of Millenium and X-files. You know: So many books, so little time!
Age : The second even number followed by the second odd number
Location : Edinburgh, Scotland (and shortly to be on holiday just north of Plockton). But I maintain a fierce, yet sometimes I fear misguided, loyalty to being English, not Scottish
Occupation : Writer of guidebooks, exhibtion panels etc for nature reserves and historic places. Trainer of countryside rangers and museum staff to do the same. It's called 'being and interpreter' in the trade, but I find I usually have to explain it!
Favourite TV shows: The Jewel in the Crown (currently repating on Channel 4 in the UK)
Favourite Hamish : series 1: The one with headlamp kicking episodeseries 2: Radio Lochdubhseries 3: Deferred Sentence
Age : 25
Location : Canada, eh?
Occupation : Managing editor of a weekly paper
Favourite TV shows: Hamish Macbeth, Due South, Star Trek
Favourite Hamish : season 1:West Coast Story season 2:No Man is an Island season 3:the two part finaleFavourite Hamish episode *ever* (if you can pick one): it's a tie between No Man and the finale. Good stuff all around!
Age : 33
Location : Sydney and Armidale, NSW, Australia
Occupation : Univ. student; ex-library assistant
Favourite TV shows: Babylon 5 Any of the Star Treks The Professionals (it was a toss up with Blake's Seven but I thought I better put in a non-Science fiction show :-))
Favourite Hamish : You do like to make life hard
Age : 27
Location : Tel-Aviv, Israel
Occupation : I work as a computer programmer, and spend most of my days at work
Favourite TV shows: Due south, X-files and ER. I loved northern Exposure when we had it, especially the early years
Favourite Hamish : It's been a long time since I watched it, so I don't remember the details. I remember laughing hard at the Great LochDubh Salt Robbery, so I guess this will be a default answer. It might change after I watchthe series again (which should be soon).
Age : 33
Location : Cambridge, England
Occupation : Primary school teacher ( ages 4-11 for those abroad who don't know what that means!) I also design educational software for odd people (the BBC included) and my other "part time " jobs include organising the music and drama in my church, and writing drama books. I'm also married, but don't see much of my other half ( a computer programmer, yawn) due to all the above!
Favourite TV shows: Northern Exposure, Friends, Pride and Prejudice
Favourite Hamish : series 1 A West Coast Story series 2 No Man is an Island series 3 Stone of Destiny
Age : will be 36 on 17/7

Location : Sydney, Australia
Occupation : Fraud Analyst
Favourite TV shows: Hmmmmm, Due South (1st season particularly)Northern Exposure, Bab 5 / X-Files (can't decide!) :-D
Favourite Hamish : Och mon! I canna tel 'e....decisions, decisions...West Coast Story ("when your a jet...") & Wee Jocks Lament (for the Kilt scenes). Well their my favourites at the moment :-D
Age : it's currently 36, but will only remain so for the next 4 days *sob*.
Location : I live in Melbourne, Australia but as born in London, England. Have lived here since I was 13, so I guess I'mpretty Ozzified by now. I'm currently studying full-time at Melbourne University on a scholarship, I'm doing a PhD. in English Lit./Cultural Studies on 'Spurious Sequels' or in other words sequels written/directed by someone other than the original author/director. I chose this topic so that I could spend the next three years indulging my two passions, reading and watching movies, pretty cool huh?
Occupation : I am a single (divorced) mother of three teenage boys - - yes, I suffer from terminal insanity.
Favourite TV shows: TV - XFiles (sorry, but I love the way the show has shifted into self-parody mode lately)Seinfeld, Northern Exposure (which, together with Hamish of course, sustained me through the last four years while I was doing my BA), Cracker.
Favourite Hamish : can't choose, love them all, I picked some for the survey, but it was a pretty arbitrary choice.
Age : 50+ (Does that make me the geezer of the list?)
Location : Osgoode,Ontario (a rural township south of Ottawa)
Occupation : I develop network planning software.
Favourite TV shows: 1. The Australian police series "Phoenix", and the related courtroom series "Criminal Justice" (called "Janus" in Oz, I think). 2. "Between the Lines", a UK police series. 3. And my wife says I have to include "Due South", although it's really her choice (I would have chosen "The Newsroom", a series produced by the CBC that's a *really* nasty satire of the CBC news organization -- go figure).
Favourite Hamish : "The Great Lochdubh Salt Robbery", "Isobel Pulls it Off", "The Trouble with Rory",but on another day, I might just pick a different three, it's so hard to choose.

Occupation : Ex-student, soon-to-be library clerk, currently unemployed.
Favourite TV shows: A very difficult choice but I would have to say... ER, Homicide, This Life. If I could I would also include Friends, Due South, NX, X-Files, Caroline In The City, The Simpsons, Tales Of The City, etc etc......
Favourite Hamish : Season1 - "A Bit Of An Epic" Season 2 - "Radio Lochdubh" Season 3 - "Destiny"Favourite Hamish episode *ever*: I set this survey and I can't even pick one! Bit of a pointless question to ask a group of Hamishophiles who love every episode of every season...

Age : 27
Location : Newtown, Sydney, Australia
Occupation : High School English Teacher (send all donations and expressions of sympathy to...)
Favourite TV shows: Hamish, Heartbeat, The Bill, Minder, Shoestring, EastEnders.
Favourite Hamish : Obviously I haven't seen S3 yet, but my favourite so far would have to be "A Bit Of An Epic" (that's the one where Wee Jock #1 dies, right?), because of all its mythology regarding the old Scottish traditions of premonitions and ghosts etc...excellent stuff!

Favourite Hamish : Thats a hard one, probably the first one "The Great Lochdubh Salt Robbery" because it introduced all the idiosyncracies of all the characters and was when i fell in love with Hamish (the series and the star).

Favourite TV shows: I love Robin of Sherwood, The Professionals and The Avengers. Current favorites are Homicide, Early Edition and ER. I also love loads of Brit. comedies (Fawlty Towers, Drop the Dead Donkey, Black Adder and Doctor in the House are favorites) but don't care much for US ones other than Third Rock From the Sun. Sorry, folks, I don't like Babylon 5 andhaven't seen Ballykissangel. I only saw a few episodes of Due South and wasn't crazy about it but did come to enjoy it the more I watched.
Favourite Hamish : It's really tough to choose favorite episodes of Hamish. I think my overall favorite is "A Perfectly Simple Explanation" because I was sure I would hate it when it began and the ending had me LOL so much, plus I like Philip Jackson (Robin of Sherwood) and Ron Donachie (Take the High Road) and it was such a surprise to see them here. I also love "Wee Jock's Lament," "Isobel Pulls it Off" and "Stone of Destiny" (part 2, if I must choose). I like the very funny or the very spiritual episodes best.

Age : 33
Location : . I've been in Toronto since '79, but was born in Australia

But I won't spoil the fun for those of you who have not seen it by describing why ;-)
Age : 37
Location : Geraldton, Western Australia (400km north of Perth) and in the middle of a desert (according to Belinda - yes, she of the list)
Occupation : Part-time receptionist for an orthopaedic surgeon which enables me to feed my husband, our cat and myself while I study a doule major in English Lit and Communications, (part-time external) at Murdoch University (in Perth).
Favourite TV shows: Due South(thanks to same Belinda who sucked me right into this one. Tied me down for the first few episodes. After that, the handcuffs became unnecessary and I became a willing victim. So much for strength of character
Favourite Hamish : (verrrry, verrrry difficult)Season 1 The Great Salt Robbery - Because I fell in love from the opening poaching scenes. But coming in second is Radio Lochdubh (those book reading scenes in the bar juxtaposed with Alexis' foolish, foolhardy attempts to transmit her reading which results in a great many people suffering - herself included). Season 2 Isabel Makes Good (I know that isn't the title - I am hopeless at things like that. But you know the one, where she has the makeover and chucks out all her stuffed toys (well, except the one)).Seson 3. Not applicable. Sob :-.......( Looking forward to seeing them before too long
Age : 26

Age : 34
Location : Oxford, UK
Occupation : Well my title is Reprographics Administrator, but it doesn't mean anything. I mostly write my School's web pages and draw, um, drawings (on my PC) for technical papers and exams. I'm also Senior Warden at one of the Uni's halls of residence (and I'm a very nice one too, as can be witnessed by my staying up til 1.00 am last night - at my advanced age this is not to be done when there's work in the morning - with a student who needed to talk, and the fact that I'm letting two of them sleep in my spare bed on Friday to avoid having to pay an extra night's fee at the end of term).
Favourite TV shows: >Oh blimey. Homicide, 3rd Rock from the Sun and This Life.I also love ER (it's just finished, I'm really pining, I'm in love with George, and this would replace This Life in my top 3 if ER was still running), NE, DS, Babylon 5, Pie in the Sky, Star Trek (all of them except the original - it's not that I don't like it, it's just that I've seen each ep so many times, I'm not bothered if I don't see it), and The Fast Show. There's bound to be something else, too, that's not showing just now so I can't remember it. Ah, yes, Friends. Returns tomorrow.>Favourite episode of Hamish:Blimey. Can't think of one. I have had this with the DS list. I just can't pick only one. I knew I'd forget one. Add Ballykissangel to my list of potential top 3 shows. And the X-Files and Milennium.>

Occupation : Technical Services Librarian, Alberta Agriculture, Food and Rural Development/Public Works, Supply and Services Library AND Art Director, On Spec magazine (science fiction)
Favourite TV shows: Babylon 5, X-Files, pretty much anything on PBS's Mystery series, even when I hate the way they've translated it to the screen (thought Cadfael was botched, except for the divine Sean Pertwee, and even he wasn't quite right for the part)
Favourite Hamish : Haven't seen the TV series yet. Love the books, though.
Age : 43 alas
Location : Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
Occupation : Chemist
Favourite TV shows: McCallum, Frost, Deep Space 9 [as opposed to B5 which is ok but a wee bit too much gratuitous violence for my taste] - generally, any mystery, history, comedy or sf is likely to attract at least one look!
Favourite Hamish : Season 1 - The Great Lochdubh Salt Robbery Season 2 - A Perfectly Simple Explanation Season 3 - The Honourable Policeman[sorry, couldn't just pick one! - and, for some reason, although I loved the later episodes, it's the early ones in each season that hit the longest lasting high notes for me]
