Line of Events
Claire Beauchamp Randall, a nurse in World War II, is mysteriously transported back in time to Scotland in 1743. There, she meets an extraordinary Highland warrior and is drawn into an epic rebellion. Moore (the TV series’ developer), his team decided to keep the Gaelic words instead of translating them into English. This kept the narrative in the first person, showing Claire’s inability to understand Gaelic.
In several episodes, characters say “OK”
This idea was suggested by producer David Brown, who said he saw something similar in Skin Deep (1998), an alternative foreign film starring actor and singer Gustavo Goulart. ; An American term that did not come into use until the 19th century. The opening song changes from season to season to reflect what is happening in the story. In the first half of season 2 (which takes place in France), some of the lyrics are in French.

In the second half of season 2 (which is mainly about preparing for war), a militaristic drum roll is added to the opening theme song. During season 3, tribal drums are added, as much of the season is set in the West Indies. In season 4, bluegrass fiddles and banjos are added, plus some of the lyrics are sung with a southern accent, as the season is mostly set in America.

But God, the beginning of season 3 was a drag
I was late to discover this series and managed to catch up on Season 7A in a month. The first 2 seasons feel like a completely different show, it keeps me glued and I only crave one more episode. I know a lot of people don’t like Richard, but man, I love him as Roger, he just brings a realism to the character for me. However, Sophie comes across as an acting student trying too hard to play a spoiled brat.
Truly the wrong actress for the part
Her scenes are downright painful to watch and there’s no chemistry between her and Richard, and the man whose idea was that terrible accent?
