June 4 - Favorite season 1 outdoor scene featuring Claire and/or Jamie

In the meadow. They are alone, they are happy, they are madly in love.

Favorite season 3 outdoor scene feat. Claire and/or Jamie ◆ Outlandish Landscapes

The palpable desperation from Claire to attract Jamie’s attention and then the sheer joy and relief from both to be reunited again makes this scene always thrilling to watch for me.

June 17: Season 2 Outdoor Scene That Made You Cry The Most

I think these scenes will be on many fan’s lists. I’ll only have 3 scenes to feature and both are from Jamie and Claire-centric episodes.

2.07: Faith Besides “To Ransom A Man’s Soul” (1x16), this episode is one of the most heart-shattering TV experience I’ve watched. It was not a roller coaster episode but rather an episode that was just somber through and through - aggravated further as the minutes of the episode wound down with the retelling of Faith, Jamie and Claire’s story. 

This scene at the cemetery is just sad. Claire and Jamie did not bury their daughter, Jamie never saw his daughter, and now all they have of her is a piece of stone that bears her name. Sam and Cait’s acting on this one was just set on the right tone. Jamie’s heartbroken face just breaks me too. Claire holding Jamie’s hand then touching the stone destroyed me. 

This episode was just beautifully haunting form start to finish. The color of the episode, the music, costumes, the actors, everything was set for the viewers to mourn with them in this loss and I did. 

2.13: Dragonfly in Amber

This scene where Jamie and Claire argue about her going through the stones. He threw at her all the reasons she has to leave - her pregnancy, her promise, the loss of the war, his death - all the things she didn't want to hear and he said it all knowing that it will both break her and convince her. 

Jamie’s (Sam’s) face when he says “This home is lost” is like the moment it really hit him of what he was doing. Jamie has been making this plan for a while but now that it was happening, that they’re actually parting, he’s starting to feel the pain and loss that comes with it.

Claire on her part couldn’t do anything to convince him. Her (Cait’s) face with the unshed tears in her eyes just gets me every time. Here she thought Jamie will never leave her but now he’s forcing her to go back - back to the stones, back to her time and back to Frank. Everything she didn’t want to do but at the same time, she knew the reality set in front of her and now that she’s with their child, the bairn came first before anything else.

Great dialogue. Great acting. Great scene. 

I think the tears fell in my eyes the moment Jamie started walking Claire to the stones. He knew she couldn’t (or wouldn’t) do it if he didn’t lead her to it. She’ll stay with him, the world be damned. It was such a powerful moment for me and I think the better way it relates to their story. 

Claire saying her “I love you” sad as it may be in this moment, is the best thing ever. I love her saying that out loud to Jamie cause we rarely hear them saying it to each other. 

And the way Jamie is just looking at her. Straight in the eyes, memorising her features, taking her words in his heart and in his soul. And when the time comes that she has to leave, he puts his head down because he can’t watch her leave. 

Just their heartbroken love screaming in every fiber of this scene and I am just a puddle of feels on the ground.

June 30th: Season 3 Outdoor Location That You Would Like To Visit In Person.

These are just some of the main places that I would like to visit that were a huge role for season 3. Never been to Scotland or South Africa and from seeing these places on screen it just makes me really want to book a plane now. But I still will like to visit all the other places I've mentioned in my previous posts. I’m sure it will take me months or years to really travel to these places but hey, you never know what will happen.

June 9: Season 1 episode that you could watch solely for the landscape

Episode 5, “Rent”

From that GORGEOUS opening shot of Claire to the final scene with Claire, Dougal and the Lieutenant, the whole episode in primarily outside.  I just rewatched it recently and loved seeing them out on the road and all of the accompanying scenery.  Beautifully shot!

June 14 - Favorite season 2 outdoor scene featuring Claire and/or Jamie

Episode 2x08 - The Fox’s Lair

These scene gets me because it is the beginning of the end so to speak. This shows all that Jamie and Claire hold dear, and what they know they may have to give up with the rebellion looming in the future.

June 14 - Favorite season 2 outdoor scene featuring Claire and/or Jamie

“Then let amorous kisses dwell On our lips, begin and tell A Thousand, and a Hundred, score an Hundred, and a Thousand more.”

Some kisses can never be forgotten, because true love is stronger than time.

Season 3 outdoor scene that left you speechless ◆ Outlandish Landscapes

Really the whole sequence of Jamie’s Culloden flashbacks had me spellbound, this scene was just the culmination of that.

June 8 - Season 1 Outdoor Scene That Left You Speechless

1.09: The Reckoning

I remember watching this scene and just being in awe of Sam and Cait’s chemistry and acting. That plus the fiery dialogue with all the curses and screaming, Claire not holding back and giving Jamie some 20th century feminism, Jamie claiming his wife then being honest and vulnerable, and then the tenderness of the immediate aftermath of the fight. 

Beautifully written. Beautifully acted. Beautiful.

This season scenes were mostly filmed in Scotland and not in France but I still would want to see these locations and more. I would like to see the Strahov Monastery, the book rooms look very interesting.My all time dream is to see the real palace of Versailles and it's different gardens. Hopefully I'll get to see these places along with the others I posted for the season 1 location question.

June 7:  Season one outdoor scene that made you cry the most?

The Devil’s Mark was a high point episode for me...which means I cried a lot.  Lots of emotion:  the witch trial, the rescue, Geillis’ sacrifice, and this scene, in which Claire finally tells Jamie who she really is and where she is from.  I don’t know why, but the tenderness of Jamie tending to the lashes on Claire’s back just got to me.  And Caitriona knocked it out of the park...I felt her unburdening and the relief and amazement when he believed her.
