Ending the first season (we hope not the only) of Men In Kilts, we are taken to the sacred ground of Culloden. Far from being some ancient battle with no meaning for today, Culloden continues to ring through Scotland, marking a period “before” and a period “after,” when the country was forever changed. Sam and […]
Tonight’s episode of Men In Kilts took us sightseeing – by bike, boat and plane, and of course, the ever present camper van. But truly, half an hour is not long enough to even scratch the surface of the beauties of Scotland – and I’m sure Sam and Graham would agree. Almost more than any […]
Episode 5 of Men In Kilts aired tonight! We’re in to the second half of the show’s first season – what do you think? Would you be interested in a season 2? As is, or with changes? It’s fun, it’s a diversion – but is it here to stay (that is, if Sam and Graham […]
This week, Men In Kilts took a walk over to the supernatural side – ghosts and cemeteries, witch hunts, pagan ceremonies. This was my favorite episode so far, as I am definitely a believer in energy from the beyond (Abraham Lincoln’s wife Mary once appeared to me, from the top of the staircase in their […]
General consensus seems to be that Men In Kilts, the new Scotland travel show starring Outlander’s Sam Heughan and Graham McTavish, is definitely a hit! But there were a couple of issues people mentioned after the first episode – not enough kilts, and not long enough! The second and third episodes, which focus on sports […]
What do you say about non-Jamie/Claire Outlander couples? A good amount, apparently! The winners are in for the 2021 poetry contest. While we didn’t have a huge volume of entries, we certainly had lots of great ones. The judges, myself and my radio show co-hosts Alyson Bailey and Samantha Kraupner, were completely split on who […]
The excitement is building – the signal has gone out – and the fans have responded! (The signal will make more sense once you see the show…) Men In Kilts starts this Sunday! And that it’s Valentine’s Day is very fitting – this show is a love letter to Scotland, to its food, its scenery, […]
With a Twitter name change – to Outlander Is In Production! – the Starz show announced today that they are beginning filming! A sigh of anticipation has filled the fandom. Of course, we all know the drill – it will still be months before Episode 601 airs, but we can look forward (I hope!!) to […]
Outlander is full of wonderful couples, whose love is inspiring. And then there are other couples – who wouldn’t necessarily identify themselves as a “couple,” but are fun to think about anyway. Romantic love is beautiful, but it isn’t always necessary. Ian and Rollo, Fergus and Marsali, Roger and Brianna, Claire and Joe Abernathy…. And […]
For all of you who have been dreaming of spending more time with Sam Heughan, this is probably the only way you ever will – through this new book, written by Sam and Graham McTavish – Clanlands: Whisky, Warfare, and a Scottish Adventure Like No Other. Clanlands officially debuts today! Mobius, the book’s American publisher, […]
