Downton Abbey
Tumblr media
Universal Pictures
When it comes to period soap operas, none can touch the captivating drama of "Downton Abbey," the British series that began in 2010. Set in the 1910s and '20s, the series enthralled viewers with the story of the powerful and aristocratic Crawley family and the ups and downs of both their well-to-do kin and their well-mannered servants at the abbey in which they resided. Fans across the world marveled at the heart-rending tales of fathers, sons, mothers, and daughters — their hopes, dreams, loves, and passions, not to mention bitter rivalries and vicious feuds.
With a sprawling ensemble cast that included Maggie Smith, Dan Stevens, Hugh Bonneville, Ed Speleers, Matthew Goode, and Siobhan Finneran among so many others, the series earned 15 Emmy Awards in its six years on the air. But the small screen couldn't contain the Abbey's splendor, and in 2019 a movie follow-up waltzed its way into theaters.
The film saw members of England's royal family arrive at Downton Abbey, and while the family's servants spar with the visiting royal staff over arrangements, a villain emerges in a plot to kill the King. A huge hit at the box office, "Downtown Abbey" was a worthy follow-up to the series, and it received a sequel in 2022. "Downton Abbey: A New Era" didn't rake in quite as much cash, but was well-loved by critics and audiences alike.

This season is very good. Ed's character is great. This might be one of their favourite roles he has ever played.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
@etmgpa Ed Speleers is a "multifaceted" actor at work, known for his impressive portrayal of the obnoxious Stephen Bonnet in Outlander. Ed always likes to portray ambitious and antagonistic characters. He has something different and important for a drama actor which is to spend time with coaches to work on himself, with the right results. I think he is great as the son of Starfleet legend, Admiral Jean-Luc Picard. Ed has such a charming demeanour.
Tumblr media
@imahalfemptykindofgirl @etmgpa There is sparked a lot of speculation about who may be the next British actor to portray the iconic character. Edward Speleers, a 34-year-old British actor, has also the potential next Bond, which would cause a stir. The Bond producers are not necessarily looking for a younger actor, they want someone who has had some life experience and can relate to the Bond character as a veteran with a military background, someone in their thirties.

#SHONDA RHIMES ANNA DELVEY PLUS#
#SHONDA RHIMES ANNA DELVEY SERIES#
Rhimes is repped by ICM Partners and attorney Michael Gendler. Pressler was repped in the deal by Gersh. She is in the first year of a five-year deal that, in success, could bring her $300 million or more. Actress Julia Garner, best known for her Emmy-winning role as Ruth. Since moving to Netflix last August, Rhimes had been quietly acquiring IP, meeting with writers and developing ideas for potential series. That article became the basis of Shonda Rhimes' 'Inventing Anna,' a dramatization which started streaming on Netflix last month. Shonda Rhimes, who departed ABC, the longtime home of her shows like Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal. She was charged with multiple counts of grand larceny and theft of services and is being held without bond on Rikers Island. She has pleaded not guilty. Fake heiress Anna Delvey’s (alleged) scammer fairy tale has swiftly found a home on television. Last October, Sorokin, who had claimed to be a wealthy German heiress, was accused of instead being a con artist who had scammed money from banks, businesses and friends. Even in prison, Anna Delvey won’t settle for anything less. She had an unwitting partner in crime, luring former 11 Howard concierge Neffatari “Neff” Davis into her schemes. Shonda Rhimes’s new show has a juicy, based-on-a-true-story premise but doesn’t seem to understand our fascination with grifters. The article chronicles the incredible rise and fall of now-infamous Anna Delvey (real name Anna Sorokin) who, through web of lies, scammed her way into becoming an “it” girl on the New York social scene and nearly launched a Soho House–type club.

Ozlander Fan Gathering 2020  -   The Rik and Sophie Show
Tumblr media
I attended Ozlander in Melbourne. What an incredible weekend so would like to share my Ozlander experience with you. Of course, it was during the very early days of covid-19 which I’ll address shortly. I’d never met any of the cast before, nor any group of like minded fans. Of course, you are usually lucky to know anyone who watch the TV show (not counting a partner) in your circle of friends let alone personally know a group of fans to chat with. It’s funny though, I’m not sure what I expected, but I thought people would have in depth discussions about OL characters/plots during coffee breaks or in line ups for autographs/photos. I didn’t experience that. I think it was a given that we were all deep into OL. Instead, I found we just chatted and got to know each other, ‘Where are you from?’ etc. As this was the first formal Outlander convention held in Australia, this was big news. I bought my ticket the day they were available (Nov 2019). It was a long way off but I knew the gathering would occur a short time after the first few episodes of Outlander S5 were broadcast, so when S5 started airing, my anticipation grew. Prices were steep admittedly, but a number of us felt it may be the first and last opportunity to meet a cast member, so we did what we could to get there (i.e. sell the healthiest child, blackmail the rich, etc).
Article from “The Scottish Banner” Feb 2020.
Tumblr media
Unfortunately, 4 weeks out, Ed Speleers withdrew due to work commitments but local, David Berry, was announced as his replacement on the same day. Then 10 days out, Graham McTavish withdrew due to work commitments in Slovakia. No news of a replacement was announced (I learnt at the event that organising a visa etc with Covid-19 developing had made it nigh on impossible to organise a replacement in time). Ozlander organisers revisited the program and added extra value features to the various tiers. The gathering weekend was so close, yet seemed so far away in these uncertain times. Every day, I anticipated receiving an email stating it had been cancelled. I knew the organisers must have been pulling their hair out. Selfishly and as long as it was safe to do so, I was hoping it would still go ahead. The virus was not as advanced in Australia. Most of our relatively low number of cases were brought in by travellers (residents returning or tourists) from Europe/Asia before flying was cancelled. The Federal Government had restricted public gatherings to less than 500 at the time. Attendance was actually under 200.  FYI, below are the global covid-19 stats as of 19 April 2020, a month later. Australia’s population is 25 million.
Tumblr media
A few days after the Ozlander event, only crowds of less than 100 were permitted by the govt. We were so, so lucky!! Of course, that reduced further as precautions were implemented over time. We have self-isolation and a lot of business closures, cancellation of sports/entertainment etc. It is dreadful, but not a total lock down in Australia. We could walk dogs and make necessary trips to the supermarket, pharmacy, doctor or special court appearances. Anyway, just wanted to address this concern. ~ Tickets sold well (premium tickets sold out). I saw fans on sm stating the date of the event clashed or it was a bit expensive so I know more wanted to come. Yes, the cost was relatively high. Return airfares for cast, accommodation, plus I assume their appearance fee was always going to be an expensive venture, especially as our AUD had been declining sharply against the USD for some time. Australia can miss out on some things because of distance and a relatively small population, but overall, I think we have done well over the years. ~ Rik (Richard) and Sophie posted IG photos from Melbourne a couple of days before the event. Yay!! They were in the country at least, enjoying the sunsets, cuddling koalas and hypnotising wallabies lol. Sophie posted a selfie from a public toilet (bathroom) - as you do. See Sam’s comment below. Toilet paper was becoming a precious commodity....🤔
Tumblr media
So the odds looked good and finally, Ozlander arrived.🥳 Before we took our seats, a lone piper slowly walked into the throng playing Waltzing Matilda (iconic Australian bush ballad) which segued into Outlander's theme song. Goosebumps! Applause all 'round. The piper was a big fan too.
Tumblr media
What a thrilling start to proceedings. We took our seats and Meagan Taylor (the one who dared dream the dream), welcomed everyone. The age range of fans was predominately 40-65. We were excited and expectant. Housekeeping announcements focused on coronavirus precautions of course. Wash hands, use hand sanitiser when you can't, no handshaking and no touching the cast. This last request was a little disappointing after seeing photos from other OL cons, but it was quite understandable. I think we were just over the moon Ozlander went ahead so we were more than happy to comply and consider the health and safety of others. Then Meagan had the unenviable task of informing us David Berry had unfortunately cancelled his appearance due to health reasons. Yikes! What a shame. (David released a press statement 15 March(?) outlining his difficult decision. Sydney is Australia's Covid-19 hot spot, so David being a Sydneysider, had to consider this I guess). There are IG photos of David, Rik and Sophie together in Australia, just not sure where. So of course, it surprised everyone that David wasn't attending. Refunds of his meet and great and the re-jigging of tiers was to be announced on the fly. Then there were two, Rik and Sophie (and no pressure whatsoever!)🤪. Meagan then advised that the five panels across the weekend would be all audience Q & A which got a loud cheer. On with the show! The Rik and Sophie show! 🎉 They came on stage ready for a good time. Rik opened with 'G'day'. Great start I thought and continued his half decent Australian accent. It's a hard accent to imitate as we know. Rik's was a bit exaggerated but that was part of the fun. 
‘G’day. ‘How are ya’?’
Tumblr media

I’ll admit, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I have seen Rik and Sophie in a lot of interviews, OL promos (talking to camera) and taking part on OL panels on YouTube. I can find their rapport a little strained and snarky at times. Luckily, I was very pleasantly surprised that their 2020 version was very endearing and entertaining. I think they’ve worked on this. I also think, that the spectre of Sam and Cait, through no fault of their own, does loom large at cast events. Therefore, it was great to see Rik and Sophie rise to the challenge of working the room in the absence of their cast mates. And I think they really relished this (albeit exhausting) opportunity and the small theatre made it a casual and intimate affair. They answered questions in an engaging manner and often expanded on it, citing on set examples, many I’ve never heard before, and I’ve seen a lot of OL interviews. Almost as soon as they came on stage, Rik was asked if he would play his guitar and sing for us. While flattered, I think it was too early in the piece and he said maybe he would do so during the weekend sometime. Alas, time wasn’t on our side so it didn’t eventuate. ~ Rik was asked if his hair ticks were under control (ep 501)😂. Combing his fingers through his hair, he replied in his strong Scottish brogue that most of them were gone now. Good sport. ~ He was told the OL bts photos he posts on sm (taken on set) were great and much appreciated and to keep them coming to which the audience applauded. I think he quietly enjoyed that moment. All creatives will take that, knowing their skills and hard work meant something to someone, much like our appreciation for OL and these sorts of events!
Tumblr media
Then on to costumes, wigs and make up. It was thought that it must be nice to have your scalp/hair attended to in the makeup. ‘No, it’s not’ R&S said in unison.😂 Verra uncomfortable process apparently. The hair is flattened and held down with clips. The hairline edge of the wig is ‘glued’ to the top of your forehead and then alcohol is used to get the glue off after shooting, which dries the skin. Some hair falls out over time with this process also. We know this has happened to Sam to an extent.😬 Rik is hoping to grow his hair long enough so he doesn’t need a wig, which accounts for his current hirsute glory. ~ Sophie said they both share a make up trailer and added that Rik has a magic make up chair. Being early morning, he often goes to sleep in it and upon waking up, hey presto, it’s Roger Mac. At make up time, they do know if the other is a bit touchy, so they try not to annoy each other. Too much.😂 ~ At one stage, we were a bit shy in asking questions. Meagan said if this was in the US, there’d be a line up for the mic.😂

Tumblr media
~ Sophie responded to a geeky question about wearing wireless mics secreted in their costumes or hair as well using the usual overhead boom mics you see on bts videos. She was asked about her experience with ADR which she’s not a great fan of it. The audience asked, ‘What’s ADR?’ There are a few accepted terms in the industry, Additional Dialogue Replacement is one. It’s when some dialogue needs to be re-recorded late in post production if the original dialogue audio recording at the time is less than optimal for a variety of reasons (thanks Google). Sophie gave an instance when in S4, Bree told Claire she had been raped. The stream in the background got into the dialogue mics too much in this particular outdoor location, so Sophie had to re-record her dialogue (like lip syncing) saying exactly what she said at the time, whilst watching the scene on a screen in a recording studio. It’s hard to get the context and emotion of the scene back into your voice and that’s why some actors hate doing it and plead to have the original dialogue kept as much as possible. But ADR happens more than you realise and for various reasons (see Google). It is impossible to tell when you watch the show, what scenes have had ADR done, it’s blended so well. They would record the stream/ ambient sounds separately at some point and then mix it in lower against the dialogue after ADR is done. 😅
 ~ Sophie talked about her audition process and was sat down in an exec’s office and was told OL fans are very passionate! (we are?🤔😁). They have an idea of how book Brianna should look and Sophie confirmed she wasn’t tall enough, eyes the wrong colour, etc and that yeah, as expected, she received some not so nice things on sm. But she tried not to read too much of it and pressed on with the role of Bree. Her tone wasn’t sarcastic or indignant at all, but humble. I was impressed. 
Queuing for photos with Rik or Sophie on this occasion. We weren’t allowed to touch but we all had a squirt of hand sanitiser (just to be super safe?).🤔            
Tumblr media
There were a few photo opportunities over the weekend and a bonus or two thrown in make up for the cast that couldn’t make it. A refund was offered for people with meet and greet tickets for David. However, R & S kindly offered to do a meet and greet for David’s fans instead and they happily accepted. Legends! I don’t know where they found the energy to be constantly ’on’ with so many people over the weekend. Chocolate? Youth?  ~ As it was a small event, there weren’t any extra security staff that I could see. I think it was only the Museum staff and the security cameras which were hardly noticeable. ~ When getting my autographs, Rik and Sophie didn’t ask for my name, but when I read their personal messages, they had used my name (which they’d seen on my Ozlander lanyard. How cool is that? Very slick!). There were assorted costumes, the de rigueur wedding dress of Claire’s which added to the ambience. Of course, most of the audience were women but good to see a handful of men there, some even in kilts! Saw some Aussie Peakers in their MPC tees too. Cool. 
To settle a pronunciation question, Sophie asked the audience after lunch, ‘Is it scone (as in, phone) or scone (as in, shone)? 
Tumblr media
An emphatic SCONE (shone) came back. Rik said “Oh, wow, a shouting(?) majority?’ 
Tumblr media
Just to be sure, someone asked who lost, Rik pointed at Sophie. He didn’t gloat too much. Poor Sophie!
Tumblr media
Of course, what would an OL event be without the cast having a drink or two to lubricate the tonsils (as we say).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here are a few more tidbits. All the info I’m sharing has been gleaned from the panels and time spent with Rik and Sophie over the weekend as my tier allowed (which was a lot). ~ Yes, they had tried Vegemite (similar to marmite/promite), courtesy of David Berry. Sophie has some in Scotland. Onya Davo! (good on you David). Incidentally, Sam tried some when he was here in 2016 on Studio 10 (morning talk show - March 2016, his interview is on You Tube). It’s a thing. ~ Rik didn’t know if Sam’s whisky would be his cup of tea, but said it was ‘good actually’. ~ Rik was sometimes surprised by the particular take post production used for the show, but was more surprised by what was edited out of a scene (to add dynamics or guide the narrative a certain way which would apply to all productions everywhere). ~ The pyre scene with the Jesuit Priest at the Mohawk Village Ep 412 was hard to watch on TV. He said it was hard to watch them shoot that scene on set as it was so dangerous!😬 ~ Sophie very occasionally discussed the historical accuracy of things in a scene with directors ie. birthing stool or not in Ep 413 and 1960′s The Mashed Potato moves in S5 are different to how we know them now. She convinced the director’s on those 2 occasions. To me, it shows her passion for the show! ~ When asked about Bree meeting Jamie for the first time in S4, Sophie was asked about the eww factor but didn’t think about Jamie’s hand touching her face after he had relieved himself as he had only used a fruit juice bottle.🤣 ~ R & S were asked to respond to: ‘Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!’ And with relish they replied: ‘Oi, Oi, Oi!’. Someone did their homework. Cool. It’s a parochial call and response thing some aussies do at sporting events etc. ~ R & S often went for an early morning run. Before Sunday’s program began, Meagan asked us all to be very quiet. ‘That sound’, she said, ‘is Rik having his hair blown dry backstage.’ Laughter at Rik’s expense all round. Sophie came on with her’s still damp.
Tumblr media
Graham McTavish ‘popped’ in from Slovakia to say hi and sorry I can’t be there. Rik and Graham had a good rapport. After some banter, the audience was now supposed to ask a question and GM rolled his eyes as he heard Rik’s voice again, this time asking him what he conditioned his beard with? ‘Well”, said GM, ‘well Richard, um, I, ahh (chuckle), I condition it with...., obviously a little bit of your love ..’. Much laughter in the theatre.
Then GM commented further, (which I missed, sadly), to even more laughter.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Who knows what would have happened had GM been at the event in person?! There is so much more I could share, but you get the idea. 
Sophie wasn’t feeling the best during the last panel just before the close of the event, but she pushed through like a trooper. Rik said she had eaten too much chocolate. A weakness of Sophie’s. I think fatigue was catching up with both of them. They did so much.
Meagan presented Rik and Sophie with an Akubra (pron. uh·koo·bruh) each (iconic Australian outback hat) as a memento of their time here at Ozlander. Rik had the Crocodile Dundee style whilst Sophie’s was more demure. In his best aussie lingo, Rik said: ‘I’m Richard Dundee and this is my partner, Skippy (Sophie).’ (Referencing Skippy the bush kangaroo ? - a much loved Australian TV show 1968-1970). 
Tumblr media
The Scottish Banner article promised an intimate relaxed chance to get to know stars from the Outlander TV series and I’m happy to say that this is exactly what we got. Whilst it’s a shame we didn’t get to know Ed, Graham or David better, we certainly got to know Rik and Sophie better than we had ever anticipated. As a result, I see Rik and Sophie in a new light, esp in S5, where they have more scenes together. In a small way, I’ve gotten to know a little of the person that inevitably informs their TV persona (ie facial expressions, mannerisms, speaking cadence and inflections). What a memorable time I had (can you tell?). Thanks to Rik and Sophie, the gathering organisers (who got a special mention on stage at the close) and the other fans I met there. Thanks for reading this far on a rather lengthy post.😊 I know it’s my take on the weekend, but I’ve tried not to editorialise it, but present it, as accurately as I can, hence, it may be a bit dry to read.😅  I think Ozlander is a great name and I look forward to Ozlander Fan Gathering 2021.

Outlander’s Most In-Demand Trading Cards
https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
Presented by:
Outlander fans want an immersive experience in the world of the show. However, in the midst of both Droughtlander and a global pandemic, fans of the time-traveling historical romance have fewer options than ever to engage with this rich world. Some fans are satisfied with collecting clothing items or themed gifts, but Cryptozoic’s trading card collections take Outlander fandom to the next level by giving fans the opportunity to collect pieces of screen-used costumes and cast autographs.
Which cards should you go for? Well, that depends on your particular interests in the fandom, but demand and availability might also come into play—especially if you have a budget. Generally, the most active eBay auctions currently are for unopened Season 4 and earlier trading card sets. Wardrobe and autograph cards are mixed in at random, and sealed boxes guarantee no cards were swapped out or removed. Since the pandemic has eliminated opportunities to meet the Outlander cast at conventions or press events, autograph cards are now more valuable as collectors’ items. 
If you’re looking for something special, Cryptozoic is partnering with eBay on two exclusive cards: “The Fraser Family” Oversized Wardrobe Card launches on eBay at 2 p.m. PT on Nov. 30. “Caitriona Balfe as Claire Fraser” Oversized Wardrobe Card, which contains fabric pieces from the costume of star Caitriona Balfe from Season 4 launches on eBay at 12 p.m. PT. These limited edition cards will be among the top Outlander trading cards fans are craving to score on eBay.
If you’re new to the world of Outlander trading card auctions on eBay, it can be a bit overwhelming. We’ll walk you through what you need to know to dive into this world… 
Top Wardrobe Cards 
The Fraser Family Oversized Wardrobe – Cryptozoic x eBay Exclusive 
One of Outlander’s most important themes is family. All of the main characters have sacrificed to keep the Fraser family together. By themselves, each wardrobe and character would be worth at least $50 but having five characters together raises the stakes considerably for collectors. Fans are naturally inclined to prefer to collect either Jamie (Sam Heughan) and Claire (Caitriona Balfe) or Roger (Richard Rankin) and Bree (Sophie Skelton) themed items. This card adds Jamie’s nephew Young Ian Murray (John Bell) whose plotline in Season 4 affects both couples. There are a small handful of scenes where all five characters appear, which makes the combined photos particularly valuable.
Analyzing the costume swatches reveals additional surprises. Claire’s Season 1 green tartan dress is incredibly sentimental for fans since she wore it around Lallybroch. Jamie’s Season 4 wool frock coat was chosen to color coordinate with Claire’s. Ian’s Season 4 textured wool jacket represents his life in North Carolina. Roger and Bree’s modern clan-gathering outfits from Season 4 represent the forming of their eventual marriage. Season 1 swatches are extremely rare. 
Season 4 Caitriona Balfe as Claire Fraser – Cryptozoic x eBay Exclusive
Claire costume swatches are extremely popular among Outlander collectors. This exclusive stands out because it is a swatch of her floral fichu (neck scarf) from several Season 4 episodes. Usually, swatches are made from her dresses, skirts, or jackets. The floral pattern is also similar in color pattern to another iconic Claire outfit: her brown floral brocade riding habit she wore to the Versailles gardens in Season 2, Episode 5. 
Season 4 Quad Wardrobe Card: Caitriona Balfe, Sam Heughan, John Bell
This is another example of a Frasier family-themed wardrobe card. Claire, Jamie, and Ian are having a conversation in the picture. Claire’s yellow linen jacket and petticoat from the scene are featured, as well as the white linen shirt Ian wears. Jamie’s black woolen Rarity drove the demand for this auction. Only 25 of these cards exist and #24 sold for $1,225. 
Buy Season 4 Quad Wardrobe Card: Caitriona Balfe, Sam Heughan, John Bell on eBay
Outlander Season 4 Jamie & Claire Quad Oversized Wardrobe Card
Jamie and Claire are the heart of Season 4’s story. This card combines two frequently used promotional shots for their relationship and the matching costume swatches. Some may recognize the first photo as a still from Season 1 when their relationship was starting to grow. The second photo is from one of their excursions beyond Fraser’s Ridge in Season 4. One swatch features a piece of Jamie’s signature kilt in Fraser tartan and his wool coat. Claire’s swatches are from her Season 4 riding habit (18th Century travel suit) and from one of her petticoats. Be prepared to put in a fight with other collectors as the winning bid for #14 of 99 sold for $428.

Season 4 Jamie Quad Oversized Wardrobe Card
Jamie and Sam Heughan cards are the most popular, according to Cryptozoic. Each picture represents a season and stage in Jamie’s journey from young man to leader of a settlement in North Carolina. A swatch from Jamie’s black silk suit from the Season 2 Paris episodes stands out as the peak of his formal attire on the show thus far. The second swatch is actually from his white cravat (necktie) as opposed to a section from a jacket or shirt. The other two swatches are pieces of his famous tartan jackets worn throughout Outlander. Only 99 of these were made, and two bidders fought for one in an incredibly close competition that ended at $369.

Season 4 Claire Quad Oversized Wardrobe Card
Fans can’t get enough of Claire’s beautifully patterned costumes. Each swatch represents a sample of Claire’s journey from a time traveler out of her element to a pioneer of penicillin in the 18th century. Claire’s intricate plaid dress she wore to The Gathering in Season 1 alone is incredibly sentimental to Outlander fans. Her purple silk Brunswick (18th-century jacket with hood) from Paris’ Season 2 episodes also hold sentimental value. Her white linen shirt from Season 3 and her teal linen jacket in Season 4 represent Claire’s time in the New World. #2 of 99 sold for $324, which is likely less than it would cost a cosplayer to recreate one of the outfits pictured.

Top Autograph Cards
Outlander CZX Triple Autograph Caitriona Balfe, Richard Rankin & Sophie Skelton
Autograph collectors are always going to be tempted by chances to have more than one cast autograph at once. Over time, the value of a group of cast autographs rises. What is unusual about this card is that Sam Heughan as Jamie is excluded. Many of the other dual and trio autograph cards feature him. This exclusivity benefits fans who prefer Roger to Jamie or fans who focus on Brianna’s relationship with Claire. Some fans exclusively watch the show for Richard Rankin so they would place a high value on any items featuring the actor or Roger Mackenzie.

Autograph and wardrobe combo cards offer collectors the best of both worlds. Claire’s photo and costume represent the very beginning of her journey as a heroine. The swatch is from the navy blue peacoat she wore in the first episode during her honeymoon with Frank. This early Season 1 sentimentality is why the latest auction for this dual card ended over $40 more than an auction for a solo Caitriona Balfe autograph card.

One of Jamie’s most iconic Season 1 costumes is the hand-me-down leather coat from his father. The coat represents Jamie’s legacy and duty as laird of Lallybroch. Card #17 out of 60 sold for $260 clearly due to the sentimental value of the costume swatch.

Season 4 Stephen Bonnet Autograph Card
Ed Speleers played Season 4’s Big Bad Stephen Bonnet. Although most fans would shy away from villain characters, Speleers earned respect and praise across Outlander fandom for faithfully portraying Bonnets’ cruelty from the novels. In addition, fans of Speleers’ previous projects Downton Abbey and Beowulf: Return to the Shieldlands followed him into the fandom. Neither show ever produced autographed merchandise which adds to the appeal of obtaining a Bonnet card. The most recent auction ended at $16, a good place for a beginner or budget-conscious collector to start.

SDCC NYCC 2019 CZX OUTLANDER Laura Donnelly Autograph Wardrobe Card Exclusive
This is a recent example of an older Cryptozoic convention exclusive attracting bidding attention. First of all, Laura Donnelly left her role as Jenny Murray, Jamie’s sister, after Season 3 to pursue other opportunities. Jenny has a small but devoted following for being a tough but loving wife and mother. Secondly, cards with both costume swatches and an actor autograph are rare. The costume swatch is from one of Jenny’s promotional photo costumes which makes for high sentimental value for fans.

CZX David Berry As Lord John Grey Card
Lord John Grey evolves throughout the story of Outlander from Jamie’s jailer to one of his closest friends and allies. At the heart of his character development is the struggle of living as a closeted gay man in the 18th century. In addition, he is the legal guardian to Jamie’s son with Geneva Dunsany, William. Lord John has developed a small but devoted following from the spinoff novels and short stories and on the show. Some of Berry’s fans from the Australian period drama A Place to Call Home have also found their way into Outlander fandom.

On Set With the Outlander Cast: An 'Even Sexier' Claire and Jamie, a New Big Bad & 'Dangerous' America
A dark Scottish forest of towering pines stands in for the untamed woods of colonial North Carolina on the set of Outlander, Starz’s sexy, suspenseful time-travel romance. Huddled beside a small campfire on this chilly late-autumn night are Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan, who play soulmates Claire and Jamie Fraser. The bonnie pair are shooting a tender scene from the third episode of Season 4. “I want us to make a home together, a place that’s ours,” she says. They gaze into each other’s eyes. He kisses her gently. Swoon.
“This season is about Claire and Jamie finding and building a life in America,” Balfe says of the couple, who reunited in the middle of Season 3 after a two-decade separation during which Claire returned to the 20th century to give birth and raise their daughter, Brianna (Sophie Skelton). “We explore domesticity, but there’s also drama — and passion,” she adds during a break, her words turning to frosty clouds in the cold air. Laughing, she says, “They ain’t hung up the old boots just yet!”
In fact, reaching middle age has only enhanced the couple’s already scorching relationship. “It’s going to be even sexier because they’re in their 40s,” Heughan says. “There’s passion, always. They have great love, trust, understanding. And they rely on each other. America is a dangerous place.”
The 13 episodes about the Frasers’ new life in the New World are based on Drums of Autumn, the fourth book in Diana Gabaldon’s bestselling Outlander series about an outspoken 20th-century surgeon and her honorable Scottish Highlander husband. The story picks up a few months after the Season 3 finale, when the couple left Jamaica — where they had traveled to rescue Jamie’s nephew, Young Ian (John Bell) — only to see their ship go down off the Georgia coast.
It’s now 1767, and the Frasers are in the bustling, muddy frontier town of Wilmington, North Carolina (the set was built in a Scottish field). They’re planning a return to Scotland with a tight-knit group of companions: Young Ian plus newlyweds Fergus (César Domboy), loyal to them since they found him as a wayward pickpocket in Paris, and willful lass Marsali (Lauren Lyle).
But some terrible events soon lead the group to change their minds about heading home. “We start off with a bang — a hanging,” executive producer Matthew B. Roberts says. “Then we meet the new villain: Stephen Bonnet, a pure psychopath.”
Bonnet (Ed Speleers, aka Downton Abbey’s handsome footman James Kent) is a worthy successor to baddie “Black Jack” Randall (Tobias Menzies), the British army captain who terrorized the Frasers and met his demise at Jamie’s hands in Season 3’s Battle of Culloden. Bonnet’s first sinister move is partially to blame for the group’s decision to stay in the Colonies. “Bonnet is worse than Black Jack,” Heughan says. “He goes to the dark places Randall did and worse, but he’s also charming. When they meet him, he fools them all. He’s a nasty piece of work.”
By now, devotees of the Outlander books should be clapping their hands with glee at the familiar storylines — even the dark ones. As with every season, producers feel pressure to deliver reader favorites. “We know fans are looking forward to the ‘slippery rock’ scene where it’s a humid day and Claire is bathing by the river,” teases executive producer Maril Davis. “But we can’t do it exactly like the book.” To keep the surprises coming, iconic moments are told in fresh ways or out of order. Plus, characters from past seasons resurface unexpectedly. Writers even added some new plotlines, including a run-in with a real historical figure.
