Pregnancies, love magic, changes of allegiance, and betrayal were just some of the themes touched upon in yet another exciting episode of the hit show Outlander.
The fifth episode of season six, ' Give Me Liberty ', saw Jamie and Claire introduced to one of the most fascinating characters from Scottish history, as well as the return of two fan favourites.
Moving the action once more away from the Ridge, our favourites headed to Wilmington to visit Aunt Jocasta (Maria Doyle Kennedy) and hear from Flora MacDonald, whose adventures with the Bonnie Prince are the subject of the show's now-iconic theme tune.
In a moment that wouldn't have been lost on viewers, Charles Stuart's escape from Government troops from the Outer Hebrides to Skye and then on to France finally played out on screen.
The now-famous tale of how Flora MacDonald dressed him as one of her handmaidens to help him avoid detection was shown in a flashback featuring returning actor Andrew Gower.
The brave act more than likely saved his life and earned Flora a reputation that has since been romanticised in story and song.
It was fascinating then, to see the Outlander showrunners have her here in the colonies as a symbol of loyalty to the crown and a nice touch that reflected Jamie's current divided loyalties.
And how intriguing was it to hear the Skye Boat Song sung in Gaelic?
While Claire continued to deal with the aftermath of her own trauma, Jamie was faced with not only lying to, but also betraying, his friend Lord John, while his fears over Fergus and the influence of Aunt Jocasta and her grief over the death of Murtagh also loomed large in this simmering episode.

Céline Sciamma makes small films that contain multitudes, tender and vivid portraits of sisterhood and self-becoming. Imagining spaces out of places where women can discover themselves and each other freely, the French filmmaker first earned acclaim for a trio of social-realist coming-of-age dramas: 2007’s “Water Lilies,” 2011’s “Tomboy,” and 2014’s “Girlhood.” Though connected in their study of adolescence, gender, and sexuality, as well as their close and empathetic attention to outsiders navigating rites of passage, these films — especially “Girlhood” — also revealed Sciamma’s burgeoning interest in modes of female-gaze storytelling beyond the naturalistic.

Sam Heughan showed off some bollocks in a new episode of Outlander - and fans cant stop laughing.
Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle EditorSam Heughan has already donned a superhero suit. Years ago, he played the Caped Crusader in a Cirque du Soleil-like stage show “Batman Live.” However, the “Outlander” star tells me on the latest episode of the “Just for Variety” podcast, he’s a little weary of what’s become of comic book movies.“I’m excited about the new Batman movie. I think that looks fantastic,” Heughan says.
It’s a bit pointless complaining about ignored or passed-over Oscar-worthy films, but if one were going to do such a thing, a pretty damn valid complaint would be French filmmaker Céline Sciamma’s “Portrait of A Lady On Fire” being looked over by the Academy in the 2019/2020 season. ironically, that’s the same year that NEON, the company behind ‘Portrait,’ defeated the odds, surpassed the giants with more money around then, and won Best Picture for “Parasite.” Perhaps it was a combination of NEON having to put all their eggs in one basket, sacrificing another, and the Academy just seemingly over the moon about Bong Joon-Ho’s masterful film.
