Two Takes: Outlander “By the Pricking of My Thumbs”
Even though the tenth episode of Outlander‘s first season takes place entirely at Castle Leoch (and its surrounding areas), there’s a lot of a delicious drama to talk about. At the heart of it all are two women: Geillis and Laoghaire. They resort to magic, murder and plenty of machinations…
Outlander Preview: “By the Pricking of My Thumbs”
Warning: Spoilers Ahead Claire and Jamie are in a good place, but either together or separately they need to have a word with Laoghaire, who feels she’s been jilted. We know Laoghaire has no intention of letting a little thing like marriage vows keep her from Jamie, but the fact…
