This looks amazing and there are some really great parts from the books that I can see in the trailer which is making me super excited. Why isn't it November?

Starz released a video on their Facebook page to promote both Outlander and their app. The video is essentially a condensed version of the season 4 trailer minus any dialogue bits. At the very end of the video, it  says "Outlander returning November 4".

I'm not on Facebook so can't link to anything there, but Matt Carter has embedded the video on his site. There's been no official announcement from Starz confirming or denying the November 4 date, but it seems unlikely they'd release that video with a placeholder date at the end rather than the actual premiere date.

So make of that what you will -- but it's looking like November 4 is the date to circle on your calendar (if you live in the US anyway...).

Some time back, I posted about a new FREE online course being offered by FutureLearn called Bonnie Prince Charlie and the Jacobites. There was no indication at the time when the course would actually be offered.

I received an email today informing me that the course will start on October 8, 2018, and lasts three weeks. This is actually perfect timing as season 4 of Outlander is scheduled to beginning airing in November. The course outline includes a discussion of "romanticising Jacobitism in music, fiction and on screen" -- including a discussion of Outlander.

A few of you indicated previously that you were possibly interested in this course, so if you are still interested in taking it, you can register here.

Again, this is a FREE course, done online, and lasts three weeks. There is an option to upgrade for $74, and that gets you a certificate and unlimited access to teh course materials (with the free option, you have access for 5 weeks only).

Video interview done for Gold Derby. The internet connection was a bit dodgy at times, so the video freezes up (but the audio continues).

Some news about season 4 from Twitter:

• Sophie Skelton tweeted yesterday that it was read-through day for the season finale episode, so they must be nearing the end of filming.


• Radio Times has a short piece about the 100+ First Nations Canadians who have arrived in Scotland for filiming. You may recall that I posted back in February (?) that they held auditions in Northern Ontario and other provinces.


• Leanne Aguilera of Entertainment Tonight is in Scotland doing some interviews and such, and posted a great pic of her and one of the Rollos (they have two dogs to work with).


• The midges are particularly bad this year in Scotland, as Caitriona Balfe can confirm:

1200 species ... and everyone of them a F*@k€r !!! #midges pic.twitter.com/DKbWLogLWg

And speaking of Caitriona, here's an interview she did with Tatler.
