Synopsis
This time around, Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Inc. team (Shaggy, Velma, Fred, and Daphne) take a trip to Scotland and find themselves caught in the trap of the notorious Loch Ness Monster. It's up to the gang to hopefully solve the mystery and discover once and for all if the Loch Ness Monster actually exists.

As a great Scooby fan, and being Scottish, I grabbed this DVD when I saw it.
This is first class viewing, with Castle Blake being substituted for Castle Urquhart (where the real monster is often to be sighted).
The gang go off to Loch Ness to visit Daphne's Scottish ancestoral pile, the setting for the local Highland Games. Here Mystery Inc. come face to face with the monster and a collection of eccentric characters.
What a lot of work goes into a cartoon production like this, and one can only sit back and admire the enterprise.
But why of why, do they spoil it all by having such ridiculously artificial voice-overs. They do not sound even vaguely Scottish and it is torture to the ears. Surely we do not sound like this to the Americans?
All in all it is a great little movie and children will love it.
Scoob and Shaggy are as lovely as ever.
It is set in Scotland in a castle on Loch Ness. The Loch Ness Monster is threatening to ruin the Scottish Games Tournament and a full scale hunt starts to prove the existance of the legendary sea beast. Scooby and the gang have to solve the mystery and save both the games and the monster.
I was a bit worried about this one, living in Scotland I thought bad accents and terrible stereotypes would ruin this for me but actually it wasn't too bad. Yes, the accents are poor but acceptable considering they have to be understood by children everywhere.
Voice actors include regulars Frank Welker, Casey Kasem, Mindy Cohn and Grey Delisle.
