‘Outlander’: Caitriona Balfe & Sam Heughan on ‘Western Feel’ of Season 6 Finale
[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for Season 6, Episode 8 of Outlander, “I Am Not Alone.”]
Outlander‘s sixth season has come to a close and true to the show’s high-stakes storylines, the finale concluded on a cliffhanger that is sure to leave viewers hungry for more.
It was truly Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie (Sam Heughan) against the world as Richard Brown (Chris Larkin) and his committee of safety surrounded Fraser’s Ridge, calling for the arrest of Claire for Malva Christie’s (Jessica Reynolds) murder. Determined to keep in place, the couple became engaged in a shootout as they refused to comply.
Claire Will Unravel in Dark and Intense – Season 6
When we last left Outlander at the end of Season 5, the men of Fraser’s Ridge had freed Claire from her abductors and rapists and Marsali had poisoned one of the men behind the attack, while Bree and Roger failed to travel back to the late 1960’s. Season 6 picks up the thread of increased political and social tensions in the colony of North Carolina as the story is now very close to the start of the American Revolution. Jamie has to appear loyal to the Crown because he was granted Fraser’s Ridge but he knows from Claire, Brianna and Roger that the colonists will eventually rebel and win.
Caitriona Balfe’s Celtic Conquest from Vanity Faire
As a child, Caitríona Balfe never found it strange when a trip to the dentist or to a clothing store involved driving by British soldiers with machine guns, or having the family car inspected for explosives. There were frequent bomb scares too, around where she grew up in Tydavnet, a small Irish village near the Northern Ireland border, and sometimes on the news she’d hear about a nearby community that had been hit. “It’s such a part of the fabric of your life when you live in those areas,” she says. “It’s really not until you get older that you look back and you realize the craziness of it, or the strangeness of it.”
Everything you need to know about the Dark Crystal
I didn’t know most of the stuff they tell you in this video thought admittedly as a kid I was a bigger fan of Labyrinth and actually didn’t know what The Dark Crystal was until I purchased the Labyrinth DVD which came with The Dark Crystal. I think I’ve seen it once though I’m going to rewatch it and I’m actually looking forward to this series.
I caught Caitriona’s voice in this video. Did you?
