Hamish Balfour known affectionately as 'Hot Shot' Hamish. a gigantic (6 foot 10 inches tall) footballer from one of the Hebrides islands off the coast of Scotland who became a footballer renowned for his “hot shot,” a kick that sent a football flying so hard it would rip the net and break the goalposts.
This Hebridean giant, who first starred in the Tiger, combined gymnastic grace with the subtlety of a sledgehammer. A former caber-tosser, Hamish was brought from a tiny island to play for Scottish League club Princes Park by manager Mr McWhacker. There, Hamish later formed a devastating, if eccentric, partnership with Kevin 'Mighty' Mouse. He also owned a pet sheep called McMutton.
