I wonder why the show pursued such a grave historical inaccuracy, and if there was anything v they could do to get around it, because they’ve done so well in the past.

An absolute time loop that Diane has created.. Not only with Claire and Brianna as travelers, but also Rogers story is a second-time loop. Then your given two hints of the possibility when Jamie appears as a ghost watching for Claire, and then again when Claire touches the skull and she has a hint from the past. Putting these all together with my mind and remembering Jamie reminding Claire that she inadvertently had changed the future, stopping a smallpox outbreak, saving a life. So then you think, little things, had blackjack Randle been killed at ft William after abducting claire.. would Frank have still be born, the answer is probably, but not with opulence he and his mother would not hold that projected down through the family, and Frank may not have been the educated historian. But Frank would have been born. If Jamie and Claire had succeeded in giving bonnie prince Charley a sendoff with Jasmine, that would have stopped colloden, the destruction of the highlands, the Jacobites. The birth of Willey, Jamies son.. the marriage to Laoghaire.. the journey to America right up to where I was reading the book.. Setting here in NC knowing of the Scottish history here. My Grandson’s family the McLendons ancestors settled here in NC on the upper coastline, Dennis the Immigrant, whose father had been one of the earlier Jacobite prisoners sent to the Bahamas, Dennis was born there and came to the colony.. Thanking you for listening.. I’m go back to the book..
