Q1) What is your favourite episode of season 1 and why?
A1) My favourite episode of season one is 'The Garrison Commander.' The episode is crafted beautifully, by this I mean acting, cinematography and props. Jamie's whipping forces a daunting preferred reading upon the viewer and I love this power. It is also the first time we really get to know what sort of monster Jack Randall is.

Q2) What is your favourite episode of season 2 and why?
A2) My favourite episode in season two is 'Dragonfly in Amber.' Hence, my chosen title this year. Not only is it a 90 minute special, but so much happens within the episode. We are introduced to the dynamic duo, Brienna and Roger. We get new scenery and heartfelt relationships from several characters. Especially, the time split between Jamie and Claire, who can't find each other. It is also the death of one of my favourite characters, Dougal. He went out like a king. Fergus and Murtagh also excelled a lot here.

Q3) What is your favourite episode of season 3 (aired episodes) and why?
A3) At the moment, it is episode 3 'All Debts Paid.' Lord John Grey had a fantastic introduction and it was great to finally be introduced to a nice red coat. I loved the bonding scenes between Jamie of John, they were very heartfelt and it was great to see he was a man of honour as well as his word. I also loved the scenes between Claire and Frank because it provoked me. Only excellent acting could do that.

Q4) What is your favourite scene of the moment and why?
A4) My favourite scene is in 'Vengeance is Mine' in season two. I loved that Murtagh was able to keep his word to Mary. The scene was amazing. How everyone was shocked that Mary had stabbed her attacker, and then doubly shocked when Murtagh just chopped his head off. I almost cried when he lay the head at her feet. Not only this, but Murtagh offered to marry Mary to save her from ruin. It was perfect.

Q5) Is there anything about this show that inspires you or which stands out? What is it?
A5) The development of characters. They're well rounded and thought out. This is inspiring.

Q6) What is your saddest moment of the Outlander episodes so far?
A6) I think this is again 'Dragonfly in Amber.' I couldn't deal with Claire travelling around Scotland visiting places she went with Jamie, imagining him there with her. Then the death of Angus, who died to save his best friend... and the death of Dougal. It was powerful.

Q7) Has anything happened in the show that you wish hadn't? Why?
A7) The death of Black Jack Randall. I know he was overplayed quite a bit, but he was a great villain and I feel like there was more to him than just being, Jamie's feared rapist.

Q8) Who is your top three favourite characters?
A8) Murtagh Fraser
Fergus Fraser
Lord John Grey

Q9) Who is your top three worst characters?
A9) Geillis Duncan
Laoghaire MacKenzie
Father Bain

Q10) What is your favourite quote from aired episodes so far?
A10) Season 1: Jamie: "How can you save a man that doesn't want saving?"

Season 2: Jamie: No, I said I won't have you dying for nothing.
Murtagh: I won't be. I'll be dying with you.

Season 3: Lord John Grey: "If you found a 16-year-old ****ting himself with fear a worthy opponent, Mr. Fraser, it is little wonder the Highland Army was defeated."

"The Lord will judge us both,
and I trust in his mercy."

Q1) What is your favourite episode of seas.on 1 and why?
A1) This was hard but after some thinking I ca me up with one and have to say that it is Wentworth Prison, . I am sure that most people will pick the Wedding but I like this one a little more. For one it showe the depth of all of the actors that we have come to know.I also like that it dark but there is also still some light, and that is what we had being leading to for at least half the season and this ends all my thoughtful reasonings.

Q2) What is your favourite episode of season 2 and why?
A2) For this season my favorite episode is Je Suis Prest and I could say that the reason that I love it is because it is the first part of them going to war, And we see how they all are so hopeful. But nope my main reason is that this is the first time we meet William Grey. And I love that we see how honorable he is. I mean he gave up the info to keep claire safe because he does not want her to be in danger. And he even goes after Red Jamie knowing who he is, For that reason as well.

Q3) What is your favourite episode of season 3 (aired episodes) and why?
A3) I know that when I writing this there had only been to two episodes. so one would think that I would would pick one of those . But no instead I am going with 3x03 :All Debts Paid. Why well because it is the first real time we are introduce to Lord John grey and if that does not give away who my favorite character is nothing will.

Q4) What is your favourite scene of the moment and why?
A4) The first time that we see Lallybroch since iit is beauitful and you know that thing are going to be good even if only for a while

A5) Even though I did not pick this episode for favorite in season one. tThe wedding ceremony in the Wedding episode. It is just so sweet and it makes me feel happy

Q6) What is your saddest moment of the Outlander episodes so far?
A6) When we see Faith body, wIt was simple and yet so sad at the same time especially seeing how heart broken cleaire is

Q7) Has anything happened in the show that you wish hadn't? Why?
A7) This may not wound werid but no. I know that this is an adaptation and I know that they can change thing and it is not like that they changed anything so big so for that would change the stray to far from the books, at least I do not think so

Q8) Who is your top three favourite characters?
A8) Lord John Grey . Well what can I say that I have not already Well I loved him from the get go and I am sure that those who have not read the books will love him as well.

Fergus. he is loyal to Jamie and Claire and loves them very much. He is willing to go to a land that he does not know becasue he does not know much about them Only cause he does not want to leave them. he even ends up losing his hand to keep Jamie safe.

Young Ian Murry. I will not say much only that he is cute cares about the rest of his family

Q9) Who is your top three worst characters?
A9) Black Jck Randall. Because of all the things that he did to hurt people For no reason tan his own enjoyment

Duke of Sandringnam. He work on both sides made prince charles think that he could help him. And his action cause Mary to be raped

Prince chrls. He did what he wanted even if his men that had been loyal to him and his family for years disagreed. and he trthe French better tthan the Scotts. As well the the Britis even though it is the Scotts that are fighting and dying for him.

Q10) What is your favourite quote from aired episodes so far?
