Outlander Season 2

[Drywhitethanks]

When is it on? Have googled and says tomorrow (10th) but what time? not that I'm desperate or anything
Thanks

He did tell the vicar that for a split second he thought the baby was his. Which seems a bit daft. Unless Claire's really an elephant and she's been gestating the baby for a couple of years

I think it was just to try and gain some sympathy for Frank. I think the TV series is trying to flesh the character out a bit more, as he's a bit of an arsehole in the book and you kind of wonder why she stays with him so long, Jamie or no.

I don't think he meant literally - it was a split second instinctive thing and then he realised of course it wasn't his.

Anyway, I'm here to complain about Jamie's hair.

He looked so hot in the first series and now he looks a bit like a metaller.

Does anyone else think Jamie looks a touch like Eddie Izzard? It's the jawline, I think...

Yeah, I don't like his hair now either. I know fans of the book were complaining about his hair in S1 because it wasn't long enough and in the book, it's long blah blah but it doesn't suit the actor as much now

he also looks better in a kilt

Yeah, my first thought upon seeing him was "WTF have they done to his hair?"

Yes his hair is better at the start of S1.

Press have been all ooh look at the lovely costumes in S2, and all I could think was he's going to spend most of the time in trousers which is a crime against hormonal women

LBO Eddie Izzard

So, I started season 1 last tue, finished in 4 days and then watched episode1 season 2 on Sunday, then went through watching the best bits of 1 again addicted and loads of You Tube stuff. I haven't read the books.

I hated half an hour without Jamie.
I disliked Frank from the start, think he's a patronising, humourless bore.
Love Murtagh ....can't wait to see what the French make of him.
Evil French Count is rather dishy....we'll obviously see more of him oooo la la
Is Black Jack actually dead.....last I saw of him he was under a door trampled by highland cattle which I thought was a master stroke
Jamie's hair is at times a bit dodgy but I think it improves judging by the promo pic......if they give him a pony tail I may faint.
Claire's hair is erratic......

Voila my summing up and highly intellectual analysis

Good to meet you all

Oh and I dont think I can manage with only one episode a week....thought we were getting the whole series idiot

I agree. One a week seems a bit stingy

Agree with OP's intellectual analysis.

Also not liking Jamie's hair and lack of kilt - but I think he does get a ponytail iirc from promo pics...

I may be over thinking my earlier question but it still seems the whole 2 year absence thing escaped Frank almost entirely - he goes to great length to tell the vicar the whole backstory of his embarrassing sterility when he could have summed it up the disappointment in one sentence of "then I realised of course with how long she's been away that therefore it couldn't possibly be mine"

Agree that it was obviously used to garner sympathy for Frank but still, seemed a bit daft. Plus it made me confused about the whole timeline thing, thinking I had got it wrong. Lord knows it's confusing enough. Which reminds me, how come in the promos Claire's heavily pregnant?

I can answer that question but it would be a spoiler!

Think I'll enjoy TV decent Frank if he's as horrid in the books as some of you are saying & ignore the books for now.

Interesting to read about the Jacobite Rebellion instead.

Am still confused about the pregnancy timeline. If we're seeing a flashback to France/build up to Culloden - she was pregnant on the way to France & she's pregnant again. 2nd child?

No spoilers! Think I've worked it all out though.

Sorry! Too confused to even think of that. Will just watch & see.

And remain confused no doubt

I wondered if it was the 2nd child too - apparently they have a son at some point.

But then, how come she hasn't mentioned the daughter she's left behind?

I'm not expecting anyone to answer that, obviously its hard to avoid spoilers if you do. Those of us who haven't read the books will have to remain confused for now!

I noticed his hair is very different too (apart from the length), and from looking at recent pictures of Sam Heughan, I think it's because his hairline is starting to recede.

Might we have a balding Jamie come season 3?

Did Sam win an award for season 1? Think he was incredible in the Wentworthscenes as was Tobias M.

So excited to see proper French ott 18C costumes.

Also....... Intellectual question coming up..... Who would you back in a sword fight, Jamie Fraser or Jon Snow? -- I've been giving this a lot of thought

And another one....

Is it necessary for the rape scene to be so graphic? In GoT Sansa experiences something similar but we don't see it...

Back to his hair, in interviews it varies too

Grr, in total agreement about Jamie's hair! It needs to be kinda over his forehead, and a bit shorter. It's odd, but when he has that early Season 1 ish hair I find him immensely attractive, and when it's not...meh. Bizarre!

That's exactly how I feel! He has to have the right hair to be fanciable. Bad hair day and it's all over.

I guess that means I don't love him right?

He got snubbed at the Globes. Cait and Tobias got noms though.

It's because he has a forehead that takes up over 50% of his face

I suffer from the same affliction. Fringes are a must. He was bloody gorgeous in the first few episodes of S1.

Might we have a balding Jamie come season 3?

Christ, I hope not!

That'll be me done with it, if so. I can live with trousers instead of a kilt (just about) but no hair at all?

Anybody would think we're not watching this for the storyline
