Lassies of Lallybroch - NO SPOILERS

[hudyerwheesht]

Ok, like our sister thread for those who have read the books, this is for discussion of Outlander Series 2 but for those who have not read the books and/or don't want any spoilers.

Whoops! Have just thought - shouldn't it be Lasses of Lallybroch? Might have to get MNHQ to edit...

[hudyerwheesht]

I think both are right, Mistressfraser - "lassie" is the word for girl/lady in Scotland so "lassies" would be the plural of that. Although "lass" is used as well of course so "lasses" would work too.
But where I come from it would be more likely to be lassie than lass.

Well I really love the series a lot more than the bits of the books that I've skim read too quickly .
Cast, costumes, castles ...everything is perfect and I miss it and count the days until it's on again .
Can't bloody wait to get back to Scotland . Need to see Murtagh back from his trip. Love Jenny. Hope they have lots of rainy picnics and sex in the heather

I suspect Outlander extremists are a certain, very odd breed unlike us of course!
Saw SE on an Ausdie chat show on YouTube , he walked through an audience of middle aged, dowdy, rather odd looking women in Ourlander t-shits snapping manically on their phones ....I wonder if he died a little bit inside when he saw what the die hard fan base looked like nothing like us, I'm obviously a nubile supermodel myself

I joined the Outlander group on Goodreads and have been too scared to post anything as they all love the books and pick holes in the tv series.
Don't think they'd appreciate my views on the tv show improving on the books.

[MistressFraser]

Just for a change, Dougal's knees...

[hudyerwheesht]

I suspect because of the age of the books - the first one came out 25 years ago, remember - that would make the die hard fans a bit, ahem, more mature.

I can't wait for them to get back to Scotland. I'm keeping my eyes peeled for a next episode trailer to confirm this but nothing yet. LOVE Jenny, she was one of my favourite characters and just as good in the book.

SH has retweeted a trailer on Twitter.

I didn't know the first book was 25 yrs old!! Oh my goodness. DG isn't that old is she?

[snozzlemaid]

Here's a couple of pics from the next episode. Looks like they're back in Scotland.

[snozzlemaid]

Shit. Just realised this is the no spoiler thread. Hope those pics don't spoil anything.

[Verbena37]

I don't think they're spoilers.....they could be pics from season 1.
I just don't wanna know what happens in book six or whatever.

[hudyerwheesht]

It's ok snozzle, it just means no storyline spoilers. Dinnae fash!

[snozzlemaid]

Phew!

[TheHiphopopotamus]

I hope they at least have one episode where they're happy together at Lallybroch with plenty of shagging. It's been a bit of a misery fest so far for their relationship.

[hudyerwheesht]

It's ok snozzle, it just means no storyline spoilers. Dinnae fash!

[hudyerwheesht]

Ffs double post now? It's not been my day, posting-wise.

[Drywhitethanks]

Oh a HUG coming up? So happy

[hudyerwheesht]

Preview of next week - back in Lallybroch, yay!

[TheHiphopopotamus]

I've just rewatched Sundays episode and can I add another round to our drinking game from the other thread?

Every time someone says the words 'bitter cascara'? Mark me, that herb is an amazing thing.

[BreakfastAtSquiffanys]

Gahd!

Just had a mega catch up and finished watching Faith at 3 am this morning.
Totally in bits.

(except that that scence was totally ruined by Jamie wearing a comedy stuck on red beard)

I assume being stabbed in the knackers is not going to be good for Randall's "idea of having a good time"

[AKAmyself]

I started reading this article and then....

KNEES!

Nice pic - but I can't get the video to work. I have an urgent need to see happy things and that's what they are promising...
