it's challenging in a great way like
that's part of what we love about
working on this show is that it does
keep you really on your toes and that
you get these really unique experiences
of playing somebody over three or four
decades hey you guys I'm here with the
cast of Outlander for a very special
episode of I have a question and my
first question for all of you what was
it like the first time meeting each
other do you remember your first
implemented to nod to that audition to
the camera test with him and there was
traffic and I was late anyway and I ran
in and I was all very sweaty and Sam was
just standing there being very cool and
calm and he handed me some tissues to
wipe the sweat off my brows because I
was extremely sweaty but he was just
like such a calm figure and and it sort
of put me at ease immediately and I was
like oh never happened again we first
met screen test yeah who you'd already
been cast yeah and I was because I was
there and I was obviously a few
potential Brianna's coming in so I'd get
in the room for that basically I was
kind of jumping around like an idiot
being all hyper and energetic and and
Cubs orphée very sweet and innocent
I was thinking after she left what might
she have thought although I do remember
you'd brought in for our washes for
everyone so what the caduceus I know no
one else would touch them and as soon as
they asked me I was like thank you.thank
please don't take this away from me I
think its first time oh I'm sorry
please to you know just the last three
months I think wasn't it the
read-through I think yeah and it was in
the office for production what's your
thing and then we didn't actually film
together for two years two years so that
I think wasn't offer seeing the Jamie
Branagh meeting scene it was their word
bra I took their word
Ami's urinating that's what I was gonna
say yes yes but you weren't urinating
the first time in the office do you want
to hear last year and when you guys are
doing these chemistry reads and kind of
like amping up towards production did
you have any idea the success the level
of success that the show would reach
it's like a phenomenal you were cast
first so I think you kind of started to
get an inkling from Twitter after your
passing had been announced oh I think we
you know we did this we would we shot
maybe a couple of episodes and we came
to LA and did a an event yeah and it was
just you know a couple of thousand
people sort of turned up and their
excitement was kind of like overwhelming
thinking wow people are excited about
what we're doing and oh my god no but we
hadn't released any footage at that
point but it's funny that first year I
think it was so great that we didn't
know because we we had this really safe
space to sort of just invest in our
characters and just get on with the work
and it wasn't until I mean we were
almost finished filming season 1 when
they aired the first date and I remember
we were shooting in these like old salts
stores or something
lime stores I think and the first
episode of dared and we'd gotten the
numbers through and they were like
really high and I remember we got so
like announced or I got to announce to
all the crew how many people had watched
the first episode and everyone's like
maybe better pay more attention to what
we're doing
no but it was really special it was and
then for you guys I mean coming in after
it had already kind of had this level of
success was that nerve-racking or
something that's super exciting I mean
there was there was so much talk about
Outlander mm-hmm when we started
certainly I'm I'm from Glasgow I'm from
Scotland and there was a huge buzzer
boda I think even before they had
started season 1 because it just had
such a huge impact on the television
industry and Scotland that provides so
many jobs for the the crew I think the
first time I really thought it was gonna
be big for me personally was just when
the casting announcement went out which
went a bit wild
but yeah I mean you know I think because
we first auditioned before the show
would even come out so from the books we
kind of had an idea but then obviously
these guys I feel bad because they built
it from the ground and we just came in
rode on their hard work so thanks guys
we're riding on you guys
what's your relationship like with the
source of material given that this
series did come from a series of books
that's still being written
I mean it's hugely important yes you
know to have that resource is incredible
I you know I like to read the book that
we're about to film and before we start
filming and even though we diverge from
it quite a bit it's just to be able to
go back and to you know because there's
so much inner thoughts for each of the
characters that you know it just deepens
your understanding of where your
character is at any point and there's a
responsibility I think you feel to the
fans of the pigs you know they've been
out there for a while I mean Dinah is
still writing but yeah we have a great
responsibility to them to honor them and
you know we you always know when there's
like a special book moment coming up but
it's also great I mean this season you
know we do diverge a little bit and I
think it all really adds to the
excitement of our show as actors I mean
especially for you guys you've been
playing these characters in the
Outlander universe for decades now and
you're jumping from time to time is that
challenging it's challenging in a great
way like that's part of what we love
about working on this show is that it
does keep you really on your toes and
that you get these really unique
experiences of playing somebody over
three or four decades you know it's it's
like one of the great things about it I
mean to be able to sort of look at
someone's life and see what change is
about someone but also what remains the
same in a strange way you know we have
lifted this character for such a long
time we were talking earlier but you
know there
the memories are kind of real because
we're a live with these characters for
so long now that as an actor you have
such a wealth of history and experience
to draw upon yeah and it is when you're
playing characters not only in different
time periods but at different time
periods
so obviously I mean for me I've played
Brianna from like 16 to 25 so it's and
also even you get the different dynamics
of you know say Claire with Jamie is a
completely different dynamic for
Katrina's character than Claire with
Frank or same with Bree with Frank you
know she acts very differently then a 16
year old girl with her daddy than you
know with the Jamie Fraser biological
father when she meets them at 22 so it's
just yeah it's really liberating
actually to have the challenge of be
able to play characters and such
different different time periods and
ages we the retina not far from being
static constantly reinventing themselves
or having to reinvent themselves through
what they go through and not you know
constantly
the experiences of all of the characters
are just constantly changed and we've
been fold everyone wants to know how
long does it take to do the makeup for
Jamie's back the scars thing is like two
hours now to get it on and maybe like an
hour or 45 minutes to take it off two
hours now as then it used to be like
yeah you should be longer yeah it was
almost four yeah yeah so it was pretty
it's pretty I mean
complex but it's an amazing it's
actually two pieces when they put it on
I don't think I've done anything
consistently for four hours in my life
corruption so I would probably die I do
have some questions from Twitter as we
were discussing earlier and the first
one
Outlander Pub Quiz oh five arrow marks
season five wants to know what I'm just
going with what the tweets say a little
bird told me what your set our costume
are you most excited from for season
five for everyone to see we have a new
costume designer yes in many ways it's a
bigger is a new costume designer and you
know we have we had an amazing costume
designer in the last seasons but it's
it's nice to have sort of a slightly
different look but I think it's gonna be
so subtle that you know you'll just
you'll sort of feel the change before
you're not gonna sort of think you know
that it looks completely different but
yeah I think she's done an amazing job
and sort of fitted in and
what about set the outdoor wedding the
wedding that guys the wedding yeah I
think there may be more than one but I
just think they they were done so
incredibly beautifully because we sort
of filmed that throughout the day and
there's kind of a night element isn't
there too so we saw that whole set in
the day and then sort of lanterns and
things the trees at night it's just so
pretty yeah when it was in full swing it
was apartment into and Carla X o L wants
to know for all the caster's there's
something you didn't get to do this
season that you really want to do in
upcoming seasons the dragon direct yeah
yeah yeah I think I'd like to ride the
car I would like to drive that forward
or was of thanks afford no I'm Claire
Briana is it just in the books in the
books Brianna's on the drive from the
airport the entertainment factor of
richard driving the fabulous driver and
those we lose a gearbox we did started
broken three season two and we were
waiting at the top of the hill for Roger
to come up in the car and at all you
could hear did you break the guitar as
well
Oh watch out it's making everything
these things were all already bred quite
brittle from its gaunt there's really
good things just don't have the
structural integrity that they would and
a more humid warmer climate what can
fans expect from this upcoming season
there was so much in motion towards the
end of the last season
it doesn't really slow down does it no I
think I think it's a real continuation
you know obviously this the
missionary war is looming and that
causes a lot of strife for our
characters they have to try and figure
out how they can end up on the right
side and and it causes a lot of conflict
for Jamie hmm yeah you know he's always
the end of season 4 has been commanded
by the British governor trying to hunt
down his Godfather and Mercer who is on
the side of the regulator's so Jamie is
now torn between these these two
loyalties he knows somebody from the
information that claire has that the
British are gonna lose but he's on their
side for now for the greater good but he
has two undoubted Godfather so it's it's
a really big storyline this season and
and also we start obviously with a
wedding mm-hmm I can't just leave the
screener and I think you know that kind
of torn between their loyalties in that
time and Raju and Priya sort of torn
between whether it's safest for their
child and for them to be in that time of
being at the time soon I'm so excited
but really what I want to know most of
all my actual last question is is
jungian okay are we gonna get to see him
again Richard it's jeonggyun okay John
bill will have to wait and thank you
guys so much for being here I really
love you say that hey everyone thanks so
