The Prophecy

A pair of runaway soldiers stumble across witches on a Scottish moor. Stars comedy trio Peepolykus. From 2017.

In medieval Scotland, a pair of soldiers fleeing their own regiment, come face-to-face with a trio of witches on a desolate moor.

One of them receives a prophecy that he will become King of Scotland. It's a classic case of mistaken identity.

Comedy troupe Peepolykus assume the roles of minor characters in great works of fiction and derail the plot through their hapless buffoonery.

Written by Richard Katz and John Nicholson.
