Description: Sci-fi meets prehistory in this extraordinary story of a time-traveller from the far future who accidentally ends up in Neolithic Scotland.
Synopsis: Skara Brae, Orkney, 3,000 BC. The sun is fading, crops are failing, fierce storms batter the coastline and the villagers fear that the end of the world is near. When a strange young man, dressed in a silver a suit - a 'silver skin' - emerges from the sea and bursts into flames, the community is thrown into confusion. Voy, the village wise woman, believes he's a kelpie, a mythical being believed to have magical powers, and hides his silver skin. Cait isn't so sure, but helps nurse him back to health and finds herself drawn to him, as he is to her. Both women have their own - very different - reasons for keeping him alive. Rab, thousands of years from home, must learn fast about this world, so different from his own, as what was intended as a high-tech study trip turns into a struggle for survival.
