Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaClaire admits to needing a dram and Roger says, 'I'll join you'. The liqueur Drambuie gets it's name from the Scottish Gaelic phrase, an dram buidheach, 'the drink that satisfies'. Bonnie Prince Charlie escaped to the Isle of Skye following the defeat in the Battle of Culloden in 1746, aided by Captain John MacKinnon. Information was exchanged involving the liqueur recipe between the Prince and the first MacKinnon clan. A different MacKinnon family took over the recipe and distribution.
- GoofsThe gray in Claire's hair sometimes is more, sometimes less, sometimes not at all.

Strange observations of a good episode
This will be short, and not too sweet.
My first observation is, I think the creators, cast and crew think this is an episode of epic proportions, and is the favorite of many in the production company. I think it was very good as well, but there were a couple of strange goings on I didn't really get.
First: The men in the 18th century (including the King of France) didn't have much stamina in bed. I believe three thrusts was his blasting point.
Our hero Jim Fraser actually got four accomplished before he sent Claire back through the stones. There must have been a lot of frustrated women in the 1700s. :-)
On a serious note, I must say that the actress playing Brianna (I won't mention her name here, as not to embarrass her), is perhaps the worst actress I've ever seen in this usually flawlessly acted show. It was the first episode I've ever seen her in, and she truly almost made me change the channel. Perhaps she just needs some acting classes, or at worst, a new profession.
