For those who don't know, "Outlander" is a popular series (at least among a few female friends) on STARZ network. Its second season begins soon. I admit I missed the entire first season, but my wife wants us to watch this series together. Should I invest time in the series? What do the Scotsmen and women think of the series? Below is a description and a trailer for the series: Follows the story of Claire Randall, a married combat nurse from 1945 who is mysteriously swept back in time to 1743, where she is immediately thrown into an unknown world where her life is threatened. When she is forced to marry Jamie Fraser, a chivalrous and romantic young Scottish warrior, a passionate relationship is ignited that tears Claire's heart between two vastly different men in two irreconcilable lives. - Written by Starz (For full disclosure, my Scottish relatives were "invited" to leave Scotland after The Forty-five (see below for explanation). They certainly weren't Jacobites, but they weren't exactly fans of the Hanoverians, either.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobite_rising_of_1745 (I know these coins aren't from 1743--the setting of the series--but that's all I got.) guy
