Continuity mistake: When Brenda takes a drink from her glass, there is over half the glass left as she holds it in front of her and savours it. The movie then cuts to a wider shot, and there is maybe 25 percent left in the glass. (00:28:30)
Factual error: When McCleod jumps into the ocean, his kilt catches the wind. We then see that he is wearing an undergarment. Scottish men don't wear undergarments under their kilts. (00:48:15)
Brenda: So, Nash was illegitimate?
Doctor: Yeah, for about a minute and a half. He died right after she did.
Trivia: I was an extra on the Highlander Scottish battle scenes and since Scottish weather isn't the most hospitable, all the extras got very drunk on whisky to keep warm. When you see the Scottish charge insanely, it's because we were all drunk, which led to us picking out the wrong weapons and kilts for the next days filming because no one could remember who had what.

Answer: You can lock your opponent's blade in there. It's good for disabling, disarming, and if you've got the leverage, breaking their blade.
