21 Outlander Secrets Every Fan Should Know! |🍿OSSA Movies

which unusual skill ended up being really tough for sam to learn why did bals and menzies write each other's secret love letters and which exhausting scene made menzies sleep for 12 hours straight hi i'm janet get your finger on the buzzer because it's time for your outlander quiz presented by awesome movies may the best outlander win which skill is the trickiest to learn oh sam r sam is there anything you can't do the actor learned so many new skills from his role as jaime among others sword fighting horseback riding and the highland fling which skill was the toughest for them all none of the above it was actually learning gaelic words gaelic is a really strong part of who jaime is and it's his first language sam told parade luckily outlander had an in-house gaelic coach to help him nail it [Music] next did sam really operate printing presses even though gaelic was the hardest skill to learn there was one more quite surprising skill sam had to learn you see to get jamie's print shop perfectly believable the set had to be designed masterfully this included two working printing presses as show writer matthew b roberts confirmed the actor actually learned this age-old craft now that's super impressive moving on what are the best hidden set secrets if you look really closely at the print shop set you'll notice similarities with that season 2 episode when claire visited master raymond at his paris apothecary oh and yet another repurposed set is claire and frank's boston home which doubled up as claire and jamie's paris apartment oh want to squeeze in a bonus question what other shows used outlander's castle liach it's none other than winterfell and game of thrones and it also featured in monty python and the holy grail next what was wrong with sam's casting photos author diana initially had her doubts about sam as the lead because she thought his photos looked grotesque frankly i thought he looked bizarre she wrote on her website of the initial reaction but within five seconds of watching his audition tape sam hewan was gone and it was jamie fraser right there in front of her on that note how long did it take to cast katrina ball was it as quick and easy to find the perfect claire no in fact it took four months and by that time the production team was starting to sweat because it was just too close to the start of filming for their comfort and if that surprised you then did you know that katrina submitted a selfie audition that she made on her phone three days later balfour packed up her la life into storage and was in glasgow to start filming now that's what we call cutting it close right next whose makeup takes the longest is it sam or maybe cat is that your final answer well we're here to tell you that sam spends the most time in the makeup chair he told design trend it's ridiculous i'll get into makeup at 4 00 am and be there until 8 or 9 a.m you have to be standing for most of it what standing that's hectic the reason it takes so long is of course to create his back scars which we often saw in the earlier seasons in more recent seasons his scars aren't shown that often so he could at least be seated and take naps while they age him now for a tricky one why did claire and jaime marry twice to keep claire out of the british hands in season one she had to wed jamie making her scottish by marriage not everyone knows that the production team actually filmed two versions of claire and jamie's famous wedding day though yeah show writer roberts told parade that it was oddly enough something they filmed twice we did it once and then we realized we needed a bigger more romantic wedding so we filmed it again ready for another round how long did it take to shoot the wedding night about claire and jamie's iconic wedding night scene do you want to phone a friend the answer is five days as director anna forrester told marie claire they choreographed every movement for the scene the actors felt comfortable they knew where to move which direction to fall on the bed how their hair was falling so i could capture it it's very technical whoa five days for a single scene it just shows all the hard work done behind the scenes next surprising fact about outlander's fan base right we'll broadly classify outlander as a time travel romance with lots of action thrown in and of course a strong female lead plus what makes it stand out is its refreshing female-centric gaze in its intimate seeds considering that some would guess it would have a predominantly female audience but the truth is quite different sam told elle that something like 50 of the audience in the us are men the show wasn't made specifically for women i think there's something in it for every guy there's a lot more graphic scenes in violence it's not just intimate scenes moving on to why did menzies involve write secret love letters for their love scenes still on the topic of outlander's romantic scenes katrina and tobias had barely met before they had to get their kilt off and their lovemaking on naturally this was a bit awkward for both of them so they wrote each other love letters in character before filming the intimate scenes they said the letters help them feel less awkward around a full camera crew break time we just reached the halfway mark how are you doing so far take a deep breath and let's continue what's diana's term for unplanned characters only super fans will know this one mushroom is the author's word for characters she doesn't plan i have no idea where they come from they just pop up out of nowhere and they walk off with any scene that they're in she told parade which characters were mushrooms then you ask well lord john the english soldier who popped up and tried to slit jamie's throat as well as gaillus duncan master raymond and fergus what fergus 2 we learned something new every day next why did it take ages to get outlander onto the small screen the first book in the series of outlander novels was already published in 1991. in other words it took really long before it was adopted for tv do you know the inside story let's tell you firstly diana's books were optioned as a movie four times before producer ronald d moore offered to make it a tv series but he was the first one she was willing to work with this is the first thing i've ever read based on my work that didn't make me turn white or burst into flames she said of moore's pilot script for the show on that topic what does dragonfly in amber mean have you ever wondered what diana's train of thought was when she was writing dragonfly and amber with such an accomplished author nothing is just random and it's the same here it symbolizes jamie and claire's marriage the author said it is a metaphor for something of great beauty that is preserved and exists out of its proper time right next from which other series did outlander borrow ships anyone oh there's a buzzer going off here's the answer in season three when jamie and claire set sail the star series black sails lent outlander their ships they were using sam revealed those ships were actually on dry land they've got wheels and they drive around so we're outside cape town and it's very hot and we're dressed in these thick clothes we all struggled with the heat being from scotland moving on to how did the show's costumes get a culinary makeover right so we all know that outlanders costumes are really accurate and true to the times to make them look worn in you won't believe which lengths the crew goes to they use things like cheese graters pumice stones and blow torches to give the clothing items that second hand look hell once they even used a cement mixer for good measure next up what other filming locations were considered did you know that outlander nearly wasn't filmed in scotland before showrunner moore convinced stars of scotland eastern europe and new zealand were considered whoa how interesting on that note what is real on the show and what is not can you distinguish between what is real and what is fake let's see how you fare in the season 4 episode providence roger had to watch as a cherokee woman threw herself onto the flames real or not real according to the executive producer roberts the actress was a stunt woman in protective fire clothing and lathered in protective gel now that's true dedication are the foods you see real or fake real outlander doesn't use prop food every meal you see on the show is the real deal now when jack black nailed jamie's hand onto the table was that real yes sam had to let his hand heal for about two months after that can you believe that no of course not we're just teasing you of course the scene required a prosthetic hand how about the scene where roger was singing during the scottish festival scene in season 4. was it richard rankin's voice yes apparently he annoyed his castmates he told entertainment tonight i basically spent every minute of the day learning to play that track and it drove the crew nuts so that was fun next who got help from his grand for the role can you guess it's john bell or young ian once he heard he landed the role he went straight to the wiki page to find out as much as quickly as possible i got the books i got my mom to start reading the books and i got my gran to start reading the books we'd all get together in a little book club and discuss bell told marie claire so sweet talking about sweet things who are the outlander bakers and what do they do it's not a secret that this show has quite a few committed mega fans the outlander bakers are a group of scottish fans who track down the cast on set to deliver them baked goods bet you didn't know that one or did you oh and which change was made to the opening song you know by now the familiar opening credits well they use the tune in lyrics from a famous scottish song the sky boat song the truth is this song is about bonnie prince charlie fleeing scotland after the battle of culloden however the composer bear mccreery changed the opening line from lad to lass to mirror claire's journey on the show last question after which scene did menzies need a lot of sleep was it the violent scene between him and jamie is that your final answer no it was something else tobias slept 12 hours after the first day of filming the battle of koladen because of the intensity of the shoot there wasn't the opportunity to get doubles in nor did the actors really want them director brandon maher told vulture and with that we're finished thanks for playing along which detail surprised you
