Any Diana Gabaldon / Outlander fans..?

[Vivacia]

...watching the new tv series?

We've got to wait til the new year for the next 8 episodes. I'll probably forget to watch.

We'll be here to remind you WW

thinks about asking MNHQ to delete o0's picture post

Maybe we can can get them to change it to a kilty handsome one?

Can can? Now I'm imagining him doing the can can in his kilt or plaid!

I may not forget cardoon,due to Jamie

Episode 6 is amazing! Tobias Menzies totally nailed BlackJack.

looking forward to watching this tonight once the DC have gone to bed .

wow, just wow! What acting skill, keeping that whole long scene going pretty much single handed .

Not enough hot men in kilts though , although next week should make up for that . Although do hot men not in their kilts count [ponders][surfs Youtube for evidence]

Just watched. Another excellent episode,and yes,Jack bloody Randall! Poor Clare,although she should have fun teaching Jamie a few tricks next week

Almost time for the wedding

well then [mops brow, takes a deep breath]. I think that episode deserves a second and third and fourth viewing to get um a firm grasp um of the erm Scottish political situation. Yes, politics definitely. Ahem.

I loved the first three or four books then only read bits of the others. They were so long and too many boring bits. And the daughter was an awful character. Was it Briana or something.

The wedding. Finally. They certainly didn't rush it.

Ooerr! DS thought I was watching porn

Starz have just announced that after episode 8 there will be a break until 4th April when they will then start showing the remaining episodes. This gives me hope for a UK channel picking it up as six months in a very large gap in the middle of a series. I think someone will buy it and show it as a complete series early next year.

I think this picture needs to be on this thread.

I don't find this Jamie sexy

He is much taller and broader in my mind.

I was a massive diana Galbaldon fan and was so excited when I heard about the series and I haven't been disappointed. Beautifully shot, great acting on the whole and...

Jamie... Mmm...

Having watched the wedding episode I'm not surprised a previous poster's DS thought they were watching porn!!! In fact I must watch it again just to make sure it wasn't...

We have to wait until April for more?!

I just don't see Sam as Jamie either. I know people will argue that in the books Jamie if 6 ft 4 and Sams 6 ft 3 but in the books Jamies always described as being head and shoulders taller than people he comes across as very striking and his mere size/build commands respect. I can't see Sam in any way this imposing figure.

Was disappointed in the wedding would have preferred less soft porn and more of them connecting and getting to know each other.

But his acting is just close to perfect. He captures Jamie's youthful exuberance, sense of humor, vulnerability, and affability so well. And there are so many physical nuances in his performance that are easy to pick up on especially on the 6th or 7th viewing some of which he obviously got from the books.

And to add, overall the quality of all the acting performances is very high.

o0, my DH is a Jacobite re enactor too, it's how we met and we go as a family now, though not so much so this year. Do we know you/him I wonder? We risk outing ourselves by giving identifying details.
As for outlander, I got bored after the first couple of books. It became too much of a good thing and very convoluted. The first book alone was great and I always said they should film it. Will watch if and when it becomes available here.

well, mid series finale not where I thought it was going to be (although I did wonder how they'd pack in so much story to get there). Bit of extra stuff not from the book, but still part of the storyline.

No naked Jamie though this week . We do get Masterful Jamie though

Only 7 months to wait
