    Found a video tape at a yard sale with 3 Sugarfoot shows on it. This one is McBrewster the Bold where Tom Brewster (Will Hutchins) takes a job as Deputy only to learn that he is also the Marshal. As he tries to lay down the law to the bad guys in the saloon, three of his relatives from Scotland arrive on the stagecoach. They are all decked out in full Scot outfits including the broad blade swords. The bad guys get the best of Tom but he is rescued by his relatives who tell him he has become the Laird back in Scotland. So the story is basically Tom and his three Scotsmen against the bag guys. The story is a little on the silly side but still a good one, just more of a light hearted type. Not yet mentioned in IMDb's cast is Ruta Lee who plays Ann Harrison. I recognized that beautiful face and big eyes right away and sure enough her name was in the credits. Tom thinks she is sweet on him but she also seems to have an eye for the leader of the three. Also recognizable as the bad guy was Myron Healey as Ben Cadigan. Seems he was always playing the bad guy. The three Scotsmen were all experienced character actors and along with the rest of the cast they made it a great show. One of the Scotsmen was Allan Caillou. I looked him up on IMDb and find that before fame as an actor, he worked for the British Intelligence during WWII and operated behind the lines in Tunisia and Libya as well as police work in other countries. One never knows the background of some actors, especially the ones of the Greatest Generation. A fun show to watch.
