A cross between Errol Flynn and Douglas Fairbanks, Adrian Paul was born (May 29, 1959) and raised in London. His father is British and his mother is Italian. His family was not very drama-oriented and they didn't exactly know how to react when Adrian informed them that he wanted to become an actor. He studied Shakespeare and performed in school plays, but his focus was always on sports. He played semi-pro soccer and then traveled around Europe to model. In Europe, he danced and choreographed for six years and then moved to Los Angeles to dance and seek out acting roles.
His first acting experience was on the ABC Television series "The Colbys." Adrian portrayed a Russian dancer, which was based on the Baryshnikov character in the motion picture "White Nights." After a year on "The Colbys," Adrian appeared with Tom Berenger in the motion picture "Last Rites." He appeared in the 1989 "Days Like This" Sheena Easton video.In addition he as appeared in "Love Potion #9" and in 'Masque of the Red Death' as Prospero (a very forgettable role). Adrian was a series regular (John Kincaid) on "War of the Worlds" during the second season and has made guest appearances on shows such as "Murder, She Wrote," "Dark Shadows," and "Beauty and the Beast" and two episodes of the failed Tarzan TV series from a few years ago. He has also done the voice of 'Gunner' on the animated series 'Phantom 2040.'
His wife, Meilani, is one of the 'Uh-Huh Girls," who appears in the popular Diet Pepsi commercials with Ray Charles. Meilani, along with her two counterparts, has been given the dubious honor of "Women We Love," in a recent Esquire magazine. Says Paul, "Everywhere we go, people are singing 'uh-huh'. In the HIGHLANDER, the saying is 'there can be only one,' so Meilani and I are going to combine the slogans, which will read 'there can be only one -- uh-huh."
His most recent live-action acting job, other than Highlander, was 'The Cover Girl Murders' a TV movie which he did during the summer hiatus in 1993. It aired on the USA Channel in late November, 1993. And he does a voice on the cartoon "Phantom 2040".
Adrian Paul has studied the martial arts Choy-Li-Fut and Hung Gar.
Alexandra Vandernoot has been living in France for the past six years, but is originally from Belgium. She comes from an arts-related family. Her late father was a symphony conductor, and her mother was a dancer. She studied drama, earning a degree at the Conservatory in Brussels. After graduation, she started to work immediately in the theater. After appearing in a number of plays, she decided to move to Paris. Two years later, she went back to school to continue her acting education before making the jump to American television.
Her first American acting role was opposite Timothy Hutton in the HBO movie 'Strangers'. She also guest starred in an episode of the syndicated series "Counterstrike:. Other credits include: Marie Thoreau in "Blood of the Hunter" 1995 (USA), news reporter in "Ready to Wear" 1994, Elisa in "L' Affaire" 1993 (French), the Mother in "Comme un Bateau la Mer en Moins" 1993 (French), The Duchess in "Le Souper" 1993, and Elisa in "Les Exploits d'un Jeune Don Juan" 1987.
Vandernoot lives in Paris. During her free time, she renovates her recently purchased country house. (Taken from the HIGHLANDER: THE SERIES press kit.)"
Alexandra Vandernoot left the series after the fourth episode of the second season. She wished to continue with her feature film career and did not wish to be separated from her family in Paris for the part of the year necessary for filming in Canada.
She returned briefly in the two part second season finale 'Counterfeit'.
Stan Kirsch (born July 15, 1968), originally from New York City, moved to Los Angeles three years ago. "I'm an urban kid who grew up in the city with a sister and two great parents." His first acting experience was a Campbell's Soup commercial when he was 4 years old, which was followed by a few modeling jobs. He left the business for a while, but returned to it in high school at St. Paul's Boarding School in New Hampshire.
While attending Duke University as a political science major, Kirsch worked on his acting skills with a master trainer of acting. "I went through the whole spectrum of acting, movement, and voice work, which was all geared toward Shakespeare and regional theatre." Kirsch performed in summer stock and fell in love with the profession. "I made $24 a night to perform in a play six times a week in the mountains of North Carolina. It was the greatest summer I'd ever had and I couldn't get rid of the acting bug." After graduating from Duke, he moved to New York, and within six months, he signed with an agent, got his Screen Actors Guild card and headed out to Los Angeles.

Upon graduation from Duke, he moved to New York, and within 6 months, he signed with an agent, got his Screen Actors Guild card, and moved to LA. Stan has made guest appearances on the ABC daytime drama "General Hospital," FOX's "True Colors," and the ABC pilot "The Streets of Beverly Hills."
During the 94-95 season of the hit TV show "Friends" Stan portrayed Courtney Cox's under-age boyfriend in one episode.
In the second and third seasons of Highlander, the character of Richie Ryan appeared in approximately half of the episodes.
Highlander fans grew to love the character of the Immortal priest Darius (who was first introduced in "Band of Brothers") and we were all shocked when this character was killed off in the first season's closing episode "The Hunters". Then we were greatly saddened last July to hear belated news of the death Werner Stocker, the actor who portrayed him. Gradually details trickled in from various sources. The original sub-plot was that the character Darius would appear in 5 episodes and would be killed off in the fifth one, the season finale. Shortly before filming was supposed to start on "The Hunters", Werner Stocker informed the producers that he was too sick to report to the set in Paris. The writers frantically rewrote the episode script in three days. (All the scenes containing Darius in this episode came from footage shot for previous episodes). A month and a half later Mr. Stocker died of a cerebral tumor.
Werner Stocker was born on April 7,1955 in Flintsbach, Bavaria and died in the third week of May 1993. He stood 6'3" and had green eyes and light brown hair. He began to study acting at The New Munich Acting School and later at the Falckenberg School.
In 1978, he got his first role in a French TV movie, "Les Rebelles." He then played in several German TV series.
In 1989, he won the Bavarian Movie Award for his role in the film "Herbstmilch."
In 1991 he starred in "Rama Dama" (the sequel to Herbstmilch). Werner Stocker was not married and had no children.
Born on September 22, 1948, Jim Byrnes grew up in St. Louis, the middle child of a middle class family. He learned to play blues guitar at age 13-- and continues to play on his favorite guitar, a Gibson 1969 Hummingbird. An eclectic individual, he studied for the priest hood in a seminary, and was even a professional shepherd at one point. He studied acting at Boston University and St.Louis University. Byrnes is a gifted actor and an inspiring individual. He lost both his legs in an automobile accident Feb. 26,1972-- the same day he landed his pivotal "Wiseguy" role as Lifeguard fifteen years later.
Philip Akins brings to HIGHLANDER, an extensive list of film, television and theater credits. A serious martial artist himself, Philip holds a fourth degree black belt in Yoshinkan Aikido. He also studies Kung Fu and Tai Chi at a dojo near his home in Toronto. An avid bicyclist, Philip has been known to cycle everywhere, including the audition that got him the job on Highlander. Philip worked with Adrian Paul previously when their roles briefly coincided on 'War of the Worlds.' Akin played Norton, a wheelchair bound technical whiz, and Adrian played John Kincaid, an erstwhile mercenary who's brother was killed by the aliens.
Bob Anderson is the sword master on both of the Highlander movies and the first two seasons of the TV series His career spans several decades and his extensive credits include 'Star Wars', 'The Princess Bride', and the new 'The Three Musketeers' movie and 'First Knight. When Bob wished to return to working in movies the producers found an excellent replacement for the TV series in F. Braun McAsh.
Lisa Howard came to HIGHLANDER with an impressive film and television background. Here prominent film credits include a featured role in "Moonstruck" with Cher and Nicolas Cage as well as the lead actress in "Rolling Vengeance" with Don Michael Paul for Apollo Pictures. On the small screen, she has held regular roles in such popular series as NBC's "Days of Our Lives," ABC's "All My Children," "Perfect Couples," and "Valley of the Dolls". Her list of guest starring roles includes spots on "Robocop: The Series," "Wings," "Likely Suspects," "Forever Knight," "Counterstrike," "E.N.G.," three episodes of "Sweating Bullets," and "Perry Mason: Case of the Shooting Star."
Born Elizabeth Ward in 1960 in Booneville, Arkansas. She was Miss Arkansas and Miss America in 1982. Divorced once but remarried in 1989 to Brendan Hughes.
She created "Gracen" to add to her name because there was already a Elizabeth Ward in the Screen Actors Guild. Professionally she uses both Elizabeth Gracen and Elizabeth Ward Gracen.
Shortly after posing for a full pictorial for Playboy in 1992, a news story broke linking her romantically to then-candidate Bill Clinton. Always ready to capitalize on notoriety, Playboy promoted her pictorial to the cover of the May 1992 issue. When asked about the rumors of her relationship with Mr. Clinton she had no comment other than to say that her sexual life is her business and no-one else's.

In Vancouver, he drives a black 1965 Thunderbird Convertible. The Washington State (USA) license plate numbers are 827-KEG. The 1965 Thunderbird is sought by collectors because it was the 10th Anniversary Edition--the first T-Birds were 1955 models (released in late '54).
In Paris, he drives a black French Citroen, DS model.
Tessa drove a white four-door Mercedes covertible (model and year unknown).
Richie drove a Suzuki Katana 600 motorcycle.
Absinthe, a bitter emerald green liquor made from wormwood and gradually causes madness and death in those who drink it. It is illegal in most countries today. It is made milky white by diluting with water and sweetening with sugar.

The first 13 episodes of the first season, the first 14 episodes of the second, and the first 14 of the third are filmed in Vancouver, BC, Canada. No attempt is made to avoid or disguise major landmarks. The actually city name is never specifically stated in the series. It is thought that the producers of the show simply want it to be a "Generic, Nondescript American City." All the vehicles have Washington State (USA) license plates as if it were supposed to be Seattle, Washington. Throughout this FAQ, it is called Vancouver, though some of the fans jokingly refer to it as Sea-couver.
The last 9 episodes of the first season, the last 8 of the second, and the last 8 of the third are filmed in Paris, France. This location change is specifically indicated in the series. Filming for the Paris episodes started early in January.
This is due to the fact that Highlander is a joint Canadian/French venture.
In an early version of the script for the pilot "The Gathering" Richie was killed and discovered that he was Immortal. By the time the pilot was filmed, this subplot had been discarded. What we had left was, at the end, Connor telling Duncan that 'the kid' needed watching. This subplot was revived for the second season. Apparently the theory that all TV Immortals are foundlings is canon, too. According to Adrian Paul in a Chat on AOL.com, the official explanation is that Duncan sensed during "The Gathering" that Richie was a pre-Immortal. Which means that Richie's 'recovery' from death in "The Darkness" came as no surprise to Duncan.
No. Immortals are immortal from birth, but their bodies behave as mortal (normal healing rates, no 'BUZZ') until they experience their first 'death'. Until this time the only apparent way that they differ from 'mortal' humans this the fact that they are sterile. If a mortal kills an Immortal the mortal does not become Immortal.
At the date referenced in 'The Gathering' (approximately Sept. or Oct. 1992) Connor Macleod is 474 years old (birth year found in early version of script) and Duncan Macleod is almost 400 ("I won't be 400 for another four months" -Duncan to Tessa in 'The Gathering').
The oldest known Immortals seen so far is The Kurgan in the movies and Methos (recurring character introduced in third season episode 'Methos' - he's at least 5000 years old) in the TV series.
In the TV series, Nefertiri and Marcus Constantine both run a distant second (second season episode "Pharaoh's Daughter"). They are shown in a flashback during Cleopatra's time (30 BC) in Egypt. According to Nefertiri's Persona card in the Highlander Card Game (which is canon according to the producers), in 30 BC she was about 1200 years old which would make her over 3200 years old. Darius is younger since his age was given as 'over 2000 years old' in 'Band of Brothers'.
Question: I've seen Duncan MacLeod wear several different tartan patterns when we see him in a kilt in flashbacks. And there was also the tartan fragment that led Duncan to discovering the Watcher's chronicle in "The Hunters". Do the MacLeods really have that many tartans?
The pattern for the tartan that Duncan wears, Macleod of Harris and Dunvegan (also known as Macleod of Macleod), is R6 BK4 G30 BK20 B40 BK4 Y4. The numbers represent the number of threads in that color sequence in the pattern. (R = Red, BK = Black, Y = Yellow, G = Green, B = Blue).
The tartan fragment that we saw was done with coarse yarn to make it look older, more period, as if it were a piece that Duncan had given Darius very early in their friendship, maybe a fragment from one of Duncan's original kilts. The red sequence in the pattern, since it was closest to the camera, seemed to stand out. The appearance of a tartan can vary according to dyes and wool processing over the centuries but the essential pattern is usually the same. Which means that Duncan has always worn the MacLeod tartan. Actually there are two Clan MacLeods, the MacLeods of Harris and Dunvegan and the (extinct) MacLeods of Lewis and Ramsey. The pattern for the Macleods of Lewis is primarily yellow and black and we've seen it crop up in the Movies. The MacLeod of Lewis pattern is R2 Y24 BK16 Y2 BK16.
Question: The production numbers for the first season as listed in the Episode Guide are different from the numbers for the second season. Why is that and what do the numbers signify?
The episode guide in Section lists the episodes in the order aired in the U.S. In the second season, for the most part, the airing order is the same as the production order, or very close. And, for the most part, the order the episodes air in is the order they were intended to air in, even if production dates were swapped for some reason (as with a couple of episodes in the upcoming season). In the second and third season, in particular, this is necessary so the plot arcs don't get confused. But when the show was first starting out, though, they were filming before they had entirely found their 'sea legs,' as it were. So some of the early episodes aired out of order -- neither in the order they were produced, *nor* in the order they were intended, arc-wise.
You can figure out the intended order of the episodes by looking at the production numbers. For instance, "The Gathering" has a production number of 92102-1. "92" is the year, "1" is first season, "02" is production order (filmed second), -1 is "chronologically first," or "meant to air as #1," which it did. "Free Fall" has a production number of 92101-5, meaning it was *filmed first* (which explains why it doesn't entirely fit with the rest of the canon) and intended to air as #5. Following this system, you will see that "Family Tree," 92106-2, was filmed 6th and *intended to air as the 2nd episode.* (Which makes a lot more sense if you think about it.)
"Forever Knight" is a TV series that was orginally part of CBS's 'Crimetime after Primetime' block of shows during the 92-93 TV season. When David Letterman announced that he was moving his talk show to CBS this block of shows were cancelled. After a year and an impassioned campaign by the fans "Forever Knight" was brought back as a first-run syndicated TV show. The first episode of the second season aired on ~16 September, 1994. The series aired on USA Network for the first 16 episodes of the third season while also appearing on syndicated stations. But just before Christmas, 1995, USA Network pulled the plug. The third season of Forever Knight continues to air on the syndicated U.S. stations and overseas but it is unlikely there will be a fourth season.
FOREVER KNIGHT chronicles the life of Nick Knight (Geraint Wyn Davis), an 700+ year old vampire seeking to regain his mortality. Towards this goal he serves as a homicide detective permanently assigned to the night shift in Toronto with the help of his partner, the wise-cracking, rough around the edges, Don Schanke (John Kapelos). The only mortal who knows his secret is Dr. Natalie Lambert (Catherine Disher), department pathologist. She's devoted herself to searching for a way to restore Nick's mortality. Lurking in the background is LaCroix (Nigel Bennett), the vampire who made Nick into one those many centuries ago, who is determined to stop Nick's search. A few changes were made at the start of the third season: the characters Don Schanke (Detective John Kapelos), Janette (Deborah Duchene), and Captain Cohen (Natsuko Ohama) departed and the vampire Vachon (Ben Brass), Detective Tracy Vetter (Lisa Ryder), and Captain Joe Reese (Blu Mankuma) came on.
The connections that "Forever Knight" has to Highlander are many and varied:
1) Vampires are immortal (except that they are 'undead') but not Immortal so both shows attract the same people as fans,
2) the star of "Forever Knight," Geraint Wyn Davies, appeared in the 2nd season episode "Turnabout" (as an Immortal, not as a vampire) during a time when his series was canceled (it has now been sold into first run syndication and its second season starts this weekend),
and 3) last, but not least, the Forever Knight mailing list, FORKNI-L, is sort of an aunt to HIGHLA-L (see Section 0). It was through my membership on FORKNI-L that I learned about LISTSERV mailing lists and, when I started HIGHLA-L, PSUVM was the first site that I approached to host it. Several subscribers of HIGHLA-L are also subscribers to FORKNI-L. -Debbie Douglass
TV Series Immortals differ from Movie Immortals in a few ways: they can't breath under water ('The Gathering' and 'The Samurai'), they seem to 'die' (appear clinically dead) for a period of time before reviving, usually mostly healed of the 'fatal' wound. Another anomaly that was never addressed in the Movie is 'where do the bullets go when an Immortal is shot? Are the bullets expelled or absorbed or just lie dormant as in mortals?' The common consensus on the Highlander mailing list (HIGHLA-L) is that the bullets are expelled, usually explained by citing the pinging sound of what is thought to be two bullets hitting the ground right after Duncan is shot guarding Tessa in the T-bird in 'Eyewitness'.
Another commonly held theory is that an Immortal will not revive until the cause of his 'death' is removed enough for the injury to heal. For example. Connor in 'The Gathering' apparently died from drowning because he 'woke' up after Duncan pulled him from the water following his fight with Slan Quince but his chest wound didn't start healing until Duncan pulled the knife from Connor's chest (Connor had been in the water several hours since the fight had taken place at night and when Duncan rescued him it was daylight). Nefertiri in 'Pharoah's Daughter' was 'dead' for ~2000 years because there wasn't any air in her sarcophagus. It has been theorized that the seal on the sarcophagus broke while it was being shipped which is why Duncan sensed Nefertiri just before the truck carrying the sarcophagus wrecked.
David Panzer, Highlander Executive Producer, explained at the Highlander Convention (Oct 7,8,9, 1994) that they stopped dealing with this aspect of Immortality in the second season because if they continued to do this they'd end up dealing with it just about every week. This would take too much away time from the primary story line of each episode. So we really don't know where all the bodies go. :-)

Duncan: I don't have to imagine
Joe: And today, you'd probably end up on page 3 of one of those
supermarket rags right next to the 2 headed monkey and I'd be
in a straight jacket
-'Prodigal Son'
Hyde: You ever gutted a bear with a knife or taken a lion with a
spear, even in death they continue to fight. But it's nothing
compared to the kill of a seasoned immortal.
