You should go, if you would enjoy the people & the tour & if the budget works! I loved Scotland!

There was a bunch of ships situations from the end of ABOSAA & in Echo, but luckily they cut the one set of shenanigans while they were on their way to NY & Ticonderoga. These last few seasons have had more dialogue directly from the book & plot points in order than from some of the previous seasons. I think this season especially has benefitted from the huge pare down that those books require. Admittedly it might be harder for non readers to have enough information about a situation to completely understand why/who/what. The whole Grey family plays huge roles in the last 3 books! Steven Cree is returning as Ian, Jenny has been recast!

I just rewatched with my hubby, who has not read the books, and he said this episode was the best one of the season so far…time travel, kidnapping, war, cliffhangers!

It’s 202 years for most people ( Claire, Bree, Roger) but not Geillis.

I watched with my bff & she so wants those sheets! I distinctly remember that in this book the 1980’s were more interesting than the 1770’s. I ♥️ William!

It was me! They have certainly cleaned up Book Jamie but I love TVJamie so no complaints from me! They have downplayed any physical handicaps, & made miraculous recovery from all injuries, which I expect to continue ( the exception was Fergus’ hand). I think this was necessary from an aesthetic point of view, & for makeup work, & filming. I think they figured that out from Jamie’s back scars ( which were totally necessary to the whole story)- too much time & work. But Roger’s scar, & Voice problems moving forward should have been more necessary as well.

Speaking to Claire not knowing much American history, Bree was there for like 5/6 years so she must have told Jamie a bit about the war, the battles & how long is goes on for before she left? Although at that point the Frasers were going to stay on the ridge & try to avoid it, so they had no idea they'd be in those northern battles?

He does have self awareness but still YIKES!

I think the show does a great job of trying to show all angles to a character in a short amount of time. Every villian except perhaps BJR has been multifaceted.

I loved this week! Highlights : William “ your servant, madame”♥️♥️ English officer “ the curly wig giving orders like a sargeant major”😂😂 Jamie “ tell me about my son” 😭😭 and Roger winning!

I was in the habit of reading the corresponding book after the season…until the extra long droughtlanders came in 2020.. now I have read them all☺️. I did prefer being surprised by the show ( rather than the books). Definately loving TVWilliam.

We welcome dissection! Are you enjoying this season more than the last few?

I did enjoy Roger & Bree being in the 1900’s in the books, & now I am enjoying them in the show as well. They seem more natural!

I could not wait for grown William to interact with the Fraser’s, but I guess she ( the author) wanted us to see him get there…. It made sense for them to let us know already that Emily’s son was indeed Ian’s, as they did not know if they would be making any more seasons, & that is one tied up plot line.

A rewatch of 213 might be in order, not too hard as it’s one of my favourites!
