A NEW map promoting all the film locations in the Whisky Galore! remake has been published for tourists by VisitScotland, but the Hebrides – the scene of the original film, novel and event it is based on – does not feature at all.
Only one Argyll and Bute location makes it in: Luss on the banks of Loch Lomond.
Based on the real-life sinking of the SS Politician off the coast of Eriskay in 1941, and the subsequent seizing of thousands of bottles of whisky by islanders, Whisky Galore! is a celebration of a nation’s love for the ‘water of life’.
