At first I was thinking Malva.

I always thought Faith's conception was at the end of "Outlander" in the monastery the night Claire brings Jamie back from near death. They stayed in the monastery for a few weeks for him to completely heal. So based on that time frame and this passage on the last page, "The move above was a Christmas moon, so large as almost to fill the empty window. It seemed no wonder that the tides of sea and woman should be subject to the pull of that stately orb, so close and so commanding. But my own tides moved no longer to that chaste and sterile summons, and the knowledge of my freedom raced like danger through my blood. "I have a gift for you too," I said suddenly to Jamie. He turned toward me and his hand slid, large and sure, over the plane of my still-flat stomach"

Nope, first airing was Dec 9th, 1965 on CBS.

I don't disagree with you in regards to Frank, but like Nidratime said, it would be difficult to really sum up Frank in the books in the short time frame without making him seem cartoonish.

I've loved Season 3 so far. I think TPTB have had a Sisyphean task of not deviating to far from the book to keep the book purists happy but at the same time keeping within the time constraints. I missed a lot of the book interaction between Jamie and Lord John. The book(s) flesh out their relationship in such a way that I don't think the show had the liberty to show. I'm firmly in the "Yay Murtaugh is alive!" camp. I hope that he isn't morphed into the Duncan Innes character and I'd be happy with him staying alive just long enough to meet up with Jamie and Claire in the colonies. Sam Hueghan deserves an Emmy for this season so far.

Do you think they are going to introduce Tom Christie at Ardsmuir? He ends up being pretty pivotal later on. I haven't seen any casting info though.

Nidra, you beat me to it. I was just coming to post the same info.

YES! I was thinking the same thing.

I feel the same way. She's really really smart, and at the same time she knows it. Sometimes her lack of humility in interviews is offputting to me and I end up disappointed.

I didn't get the vibe that it WAS Faith, just that it was the name brought Jamie and Claire to attention.

I agree, WatcherTina! If it's written well (which it is) and cast well (so far, so good), I think it can be done effectively.

I have to agree with WatcherTina above.

For what it's worth, Ron Moore has said in a few interviews that Season 1 ends just as Book 1.

You owe me a keyboard. ;)

That's exactly my thought. People are "Sam Who?" on David Tennant's posts about the poll. I'm a huge fan of both, but I'm all about boosting Sam right now.
